Oh no, the American IPA I brewed last Thursday got infected. This hasn't happened in a while and I have no idea how it happened. Guess I'm going to have to tear the entire brew area down and clean.

3 medals at KC Bier Meisters competition, and my highest scoring beer didn't even medal! Awesome feeling. The hard work honing this craft is paying off! #homebrew #craftbeer

I'm now obsessing over creating the perfect Kölsch. Batch #1 is pretty great! More than a lot of the local Kölsch beers here in KC, it really hits that desired soft mouth feel. But it didn't clear up... And I'm fixated on correcting this. #homebrew (mine is on the left)

Added a Gold for an Irish Stout and a Silver for a Hefeweizen tonight at Red Earth Brewers spring competition! That means 8 total medals with 5 different beers at 3 spring competitions this year, including 2 gold and a second best in show! Can't wait for the fall competitions.

Brewed a DIPA today with a Pliney style hop schedule. Hit my target OG of 1.074 with excellent yield. Enjoyed the last of my homebrewed Kölsch and West Coast IPAs from Outer Range Brewing and Alma Mader while I did it. Today was a good day.

Enjoying a pint of the my latest attempt at a hazy IPA which just won bronze at the ZZHops Homebrew Club competition! Loving this batch. Still some room to grow, but we're getting close to something special! #homebrewing

BKS pretty good at hazy IPAs, but this year's Pine Tree may be the best beer they've ever brewed. It tastes like spruce and juniper berries without being perfumy. You wouldn't think of a hazy as a Christmas beer, but this one works so well. It's awesome. BKS Artisan Ales

I know there are a lot of great beers out there, but brew day during paternity leave beers have to be up there in the power rankings.

Let’s talk about why inflation isn’t up, as economists predicted. It’s really simple. I see it in all my product based companies. 1. They borrow money or use their available cash to front run the tariffs and buy as much inventory as they can. 3, 6 months or longer. In many

Double brew day tomorrow. Two hoppy lagers coming up - one single hopped with Vera and a dry hopped West Coast Pils. Grain bills are *almost* identical - The Vera hopped beer is a little bit bigger, higher ABV. Two 90 min boils in one day… What have I signed myself up for?
