Brewchez' Holiday Ale

Looks pretty good!

 

Wow!  Keep us posted.

 

Two Days in and it is going nuts. I don't have bread in the airlock, but the Kraeusen is up almost high enough. Smells great!

nice!! can't wait to brew it up (doing it on Sat. the 22nd)

 

This made a great batch of beer.  I altered the recipe slightly for extract syrups that I had on hand.  The bourbon, oak, and slight nutmeg flavors were fantastic.  I am only on batch #17, but it is the best one yet. 

I brewed in mid September.  I had a bottle at thanksgiving, and it was OK.  Mid december it was good.  end of december, early January it was phenomenal.  Now, it seems to be losing some of the balance. 

Everybody who has tasted this batch (even non-beer lovers) like this brew.  I will make this one many more times.  In fact, I do not think I can wait until the next holiday season. 

Thank you for the recipe.
Sincerely
Brew&I

 

Thanks again for the support.

Actually, I always found it strange how the beer seems to really age for a specifc time frame, seems to peak at the same time each year.  Then it clearly starts to "lose" something after that 4 month point.

At that point, just put in in the medicine cabinet and use it as mouth wash.   I am trying to get the ADA on board but no luck yet.

 

Based on how it looks, and what I've read, this recipe is certainly on my list to brew this year....sounds very good.  I'm doing a honey oak porter this weekend, so hopefully I'll get a good idea on the oak addition.  I'd hate to have a full batch of liqui-trees.....
