Brew Batch #185 Wallaby Water ( pronounced Wa-duh)

Giving the "accidental" Australian Sparkling another go because it turned out so damn good last time. OG 1.042+0.001 @77F and on a massive pitch of WLP009. This is the 3rd generation of this super hard to get yeast and hopefully wont peter out. After this it's time to go super big and start filling a new rum barrel...

Brew Batch #184 Dangling Fruit

Attempt #2 in the keg last night with FG 1.008+0.000 @69F to give it a hefty 7%. Haven't done it in 5 years, originally batch #91 and the biggest takeaway was that it had a good bit of diacetyl or what I know as hop creep to it last time. Just wanted to see if the recipe was solid and my technique had gotten better.

Brew Batch #184 Dangliing Fruit

We revisit an oldie that I always wanted to see if I could recreate. Made with Cascade (which at the time wasn't in a lot of hazies), Azacca and El Dorado. I'll be curious to see if it has the same profile. OG 1.060+0.001 @ 79F (about 10 points off) but hopefully fresh LA3 will gnaw it down to a respectable abv.
