American Pale Ale
“A middle of the road, more malt and hop balanced American PA.” — Jamil Zainasheff
Rosemary IPA
I have an alter ego, a secret identity, in short a day job. I’m a high-school French teacher. Pretty mundane, sometimes, but that’s one of the reasons I make my own beer.
Fast Mead
This is a simple and straightforward mead recipe that should have your fermentation finished within a few weeks.
Jamil’s Weizenbock
While the traditional weizen fermentation esters and phenols should be obvious in weizenbock, keep in mind that the fermentation character — the clove and banana — should blend well with the rest of the beer character.
Texas Imperial Brown Ale
American Brown ale was once referred to as Texas Brown ale, since the Dixie Cup was the first competition to recognize the style. In honor of that, David Cato brewed his Texas Imperial Brown Ale, which is more or less a brown I.P.A. It’s a richly flavored beer and very hoppy, appropriately enough with Amarillo® hops. This beer, by David Cato took 2nd place in the Imperial Beer category.
