Brewed: Extra Strong Bitter MKII

Today I brewed batch 18 – the second version of my Extra Strong Bitter. I had planned for it to be almost identical to the last one, however a few of the ingredients from last time were not available, so I think it will be a significantly different beer.

Brewed: Oatmeal Stout

Today, I brewed an Oatmeal Stout. It was a really smooth brew day, everything went right.
I used a different base malt than I usually do – Munich I Malt. I also used Caraaroma instead of Crystal, and of course, this brew included oats!

Tasted: Schwarzbier (Batch 12)

Dad and I shared another bottle of our Schwarzbier. We had a gusher in this batch a while ago, but this one was ok, so it must have just been one dirty bottle.

Brewed: English India Pale Ale (IPA)

I brewed an IPA today. I was aiming for an English style, however I think it could end up being too high in alcohol content. If it gets to a final gravity of 1.016, it will be 7.5% ABV!
