The past several months my life has been Sahti. June 2016 I gave a short lecture on brewing and some historical aspects of beer brewing in the Nordic region. With the event, I brewed what I thought was a Sahti (based on one of the only recipes I found at the time and only recently…

As I was typing out this recipe, while looking at my Belgium Trippel recipe, I noticed how similar the amount and type of ingredients were. Similar to Trippels,…

I brewed this beer on 4/20/2012. Yeah I know, 4/20, blaze it. Not that I made this beer with marijuana or anything (although that has been idea I’ve wanted to try) but I distinctly remember myself thinking how ironic it was, with me being a bit of a stoner in the past, that I in…

Before I started brewing, IPAs were my main squeeze. I enjoyed other beers too, although I typically thought they lacked the complexity that many of the different hop varieties can offer.
