Fang Maker

we brewed up our cascadian dark ale (Fang Maker) this weekend. the hop bill in the batch included 12 oz of hops: 2 oz summit, 2 oz simcoe, 2 oz centennial, 2 oz cascade, 2 oz amarillo, 2 oz ahtanum.we hit an og of 1.065, a little lower than we were hoping for but it should still be delicious.

we also ordered a new 1/2" racking cane, some 5.2 buffer, and a little batch we like to call "kimosabe reloads". its a revision of the kimosabe recipe but with a little more base malt. we'll be brewing this fella in a couple weeks.

bottled



we successfully bottled and wax dipped our winter beers on saturday afternoon. ended up with (22) Peacemaker and (24) Abomin-Ale. while bottling we did some taste testing:

Peacemaker has a butterscotch aroma and tastes like sweet vanilla bean blended with rich dark chocolate. with an 8.5% abv, we guarantee it will keep you warm this winter.

Abomin-Ale has a dominant apple aroma and a complex taste. with every sip you can pick out the anise, orange, and cinnamon. clocking in at 10% abv, we recommend sharing it with a friend.

labels coming soon.
