Oatmeal Cookie Stout

Few beers are very special to my heart. This one I kept it close to the chest and did a mountain of research to get. Questions lead to conversations, conversations lead to hours researching recipes and stories that lead to more conversations and discussions. This leads to ultimately picking a special day to make dreams come true. This was a special brew for me to make and it was indeed a gift. Not easy to make, but way too easy to drink.

Oinker

Chasing beers that I have tasted elsewhere always lead me into trouble. Glorious time allocating adventures into flavors and locations unknown. A new frontier awaits and then burns you out. I tasted a Blind Pig and thought I could do the same. These hop schedules are not easy in IPA territory and the amount of grain had me spilling over more than I liked. After this beer I held back on IPAs because I wanted something more robust than grassy flavors. I love a good IPA, just not all the time. Tastes change and hearts change. I changed with this labor of love and rarely made it again.

I See Red Ale

I collaborated with a few friends on this beer in my garage. This led to a lengthy consideration of malts and hops. Hearty discussions can make a good beer, most of the time. Since I was brewing the beer, I had final say until the hops got dropped in. EKG, Fuggles and Willamette.

Tasty Bastard

Making a different ale than I have made before. I bought some oat malt and it made me quite excited to use it. Oat malt lends head retention and mouthfeel while adding a light haze. I wanted to experiment more with the grain and it added a great quality. I wanted to make this a high abv beer with great mouthfeel using Chinook hops and ingenuity.
