    Trippel Pumpkin Ale - read and weep pumpkin tears

    Also note with respect to the sub-thread on tea above that in my tea experiments (three varying teas all surrounding the mandarin orange) I added a pint or two of a zinger style tea to the secondary of an ipa and it didnt turn out so well. Maybe added too much b/c too much came through... In the...

    Mango Habanero IPA

    We used like 5 habaneroed total. Didnt damage head retention one bit. The heat was on the finish. The key was to spice it up until it got to ur liking. 1 pepper, let it sit in fermenter for a day. Taste. So on and so forth Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
