Long & busy day.

Thanks Lady & gents. Iron Brewer is such a fun event. There were a lot of good beers out there. I actually brewed virtually the same beer as my first extract 5-gallon batch over 2 years ago, but it still sticks out as being one of the better ones. I pushed for this style beer when we were debating what to do. The beer came out great. I do wish we had given the whole batch the bourbon treatment. That one turned out exactly like I wanted it.

The "smoked" version was awful. Some grains got stuck under the false bottom in the kettle on brew day, and scorched the whole batch. We were going to dump it, but decided to bring a keg out to serve after all our other ones had floated.

I did get to try the new batch of Ghost too. Best one yet. Huge Citra aroma and great flavor & mouthfeel.
