All for brew, brew for all.

I’ll have to watch this when I get home from work tonight.  But, I did brew the W10 recipe from the current BYO article.  Tried the first few pints last night.  Whatever you call it, whether or not it get’s it’s own catagory, it is a tasty beer.  I modified the recipe just a bit and added french oak chips to the fermenters.

I’ve brewed about 100 gallons so far this year, and this is certainly one of the best.  It will be part of my regular rotation.
