We have moved to all grain brewing

Well, we are one step closer to professional brewing - we are now brewing all grain (no malt extract). We have made two beers now and both mashes have proven extremely efficient. We are still getting the specific gravity we want and they are delicious beers! We brewed a honey wheat that was excellent. And of course, we used organic honey as well so our beer was made using 100% organic ingredients. Great mouthfeel, good light body. You could just taste that honey sweetness on the finish. It was slightly fruity, I think because we used a tropical blossom honey. I may try different honeys just to compare, there is a spicy mountain fireweed honey that I LOVE... All in all an excellent beer we plan to make again and again.

We also brewed our Doctor's Note Pale Ale as an all grain recipe. I will tell you more about that after our BBQ...

WE ARE NOW AWARD WINNING!

We took 2 bronze medals, one for our Hefeweizen and one for our IPA. We also received a SILVER MEDAL for our red ale!

The Hefe that won was right before our adjustments for mouthfeel, so I think it is MUCH better even now. Here's hoping we can make it to the awards ceremony!
