  • CS1 - Douglas's Belgian Amber, 5.7%

  • CS1 - Zane's APA 5.5%

    So this was an Epic Pale Ale clone. Recipe was hashed together out of the various versions you can find around the internet. Went something like this. There are more IBU than calculated. The hot whirlpool definitely adds some bitterness.Cascadian Pale AleAmerican Pale AleType: All GrainDate:…
