Try half on 1272 and half on WLP060 and return to this thread with tasting notes in 4 weeks.

This recipe looks fine. The honey and caramel will add a slight maltiness, but it should not subdue the crisp hop flavor you desire. I am all for the American Ale 2, it always flocculates nicely for me. It is my default yeast for pale ales, kolsch, porter, and stout.

Thanks for posting these. I'm originally from the Escanaba area and would be interested in any information you have about UP brewing history (if you do write a book let me know).

I know I'm a few months late, but I do this all the time as I don't have room to dedicate a keg to root beer. I carbonate with the Soda Stream and then siphon off enough water so that one cup of syrup tops off the standard Soda Stream bottle. I just keep the open syrup in the fridge.

Thanks, more expensive than I'd like, but I ordered the last 5 ounces they had at Rebel Brewer. I'll definitely be buying in bulk in September. I didn't see any on homebrewing.org.

I need 6 oz of Citra and can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get some or any idea when it will be available? EDIT: sorry for the typo in the title, fat fingers on a little phone and now I'm not sure how to fix it.

My wife and I are headed to the Land of Oz for two weeks in June and I'm looking for some breweries/brewpubs to visit downtown Sydney and in the Cairns area. We won't have a car, but we're fans of public transportation and don't mind walking a few miles (I should probably get used to saying...

In. Winning.

My LHBS has been out of Citra the last few times I've been in. Not sure if that has anything to do with this, but I thought I'd throw it out there. And I was planning to do my 100% Citra Abbey Pale Ale again.

I wouldn't mind having one.

I have to agree with Estoppel, the OP is not out of line here. A simple explanation of the reasoning behind the policy from the employee may have avoided the issue. This employee did not do his job appropriately and when pressed should have explained the policy instead of simply saying "it is...

Signed up, good luck.

NHL. Basketball ends after March Madness for me.

I intended on brewing my fourth ale (only been brewing for a few months), but I accidentally purchased the wrong yeast and did not realize it until after I had pitched it into the wort. I reached for an American Ale and ended up with Wyeast American Lager (2035). Without an adequate...
