Here in Michigan one of the things that we look forward to in the spring besides the Detroit Tigers Opening Day is the Bell’s Brewery release of Oberon Ale. The return of this hazy, golden orange colored wheat beer is almost a state holiday and many people, non-brewers mostly cannot wait until this seasonal beer comes back to their local beer store. I have to say that as much as I like Oberon I like brewing my own version even more.

Woo hoo. I just found 2 LBKs in a closet. Far from where I'd usually brew, so I'm not sure what they were doing there. Chat gpt came up with a couple of recipes, and I adjusted based on the size of the bags of malt I've got and because i asked for a 2 […]

I have a closet full of various grains. I'm not exactly sure what all i have because that would require lifting the bags and finding the labels. I think I've also got some grains that i already crushed, but i don't think i really trust those. I would have milked them more than a year […]

The Brewhouse • Re: What are you drinking?
My son came out for a visit yesterday so we spent last night emptying 2-2gallon kegs. I think there was only 4 or 5 beers left in each so we didn't drink a whole lot, just finished off 2 kegs that had been in kegerator for a while. One was a Honey Kolsch, the other […]
