Kelp Scotch Ale

Here is an article on the invasive seaweed that I used for the Scotch Ale a few of you tried at NHC. We are planning on brewing it again in the next few weeks.

That beer did not suck.

Thanks

Brewed this again today

We doubled the sargassum

Well, at least you are helping out the environment.

Would like to see the recipe. Wish I could brew with Garlic Mustard, a big problem along the eastern US. Invasive species are the biggest threat to our national parks.
