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.

I checked my hops stash and there was just over a pound of homegrown hallertauer.My brother suggested using CHATGPT, so i went there, listed my ingredients and asked for a 2 gallon recipe. It came back almost immediately with a recipe that it estimated […]

I *thought* i had a bunch of pellet hops (like a couple of pounds) in my deep freeze. I didn't find any because there's a bunch of food in there (why would i doi that? ). But i found some homegrown hippies in a different spot. I guess i can use those and treat AAs […]

Wow. The starter kits have gotten a lot more expensive. I guess the fermenter by itself isn't too bad (at least not at Mr beer), but i may wait until i can get to Walmart and look for 3 (or so) gallon bucket. At least I'm in good shape on yeast. I found a bunch […]
