    Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer Jalapeno Cream Ale

    So I just cracked the first beer of this batch after about a week of bottle conditioning to check it and it's pretty good. I did add a bit of the tincture and can taste a bit of the vodka. Should I expect that to mellow a bit? It did add quite a bit of heat though. Wow!

    How much do you brew??

    Being a freelancer I have a bit of an odd schedule. I just brewed 62 gallons in the last 4 weeks, 60 of which were 10 gallon batches. I brewed only 2 10 gallon batches in the 3 months leading up to that. I'm probably hovering around 150 gallons on the year.
