Re: 2014 National Capital Home Brew Competition
They extended the deadline for receiving entries to the 24th, would they still have judged them that soon? I'd have figured they'd give them a week to settle after shipping.

Re: 2014 National Capital Home Brew Competition
Maybe they're anticipating a large number of entries, so they'll judge those that arrived first first?
I'm just impatient!

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Re: 2014 National Capital Home Brew Competition
Thanks! When i did this batch i pulled about 25% of the boil volume out after 80 minutes and let it steep in a bed of hops, then continued the boil for another 10 minutes with the remaining 75% of the batch. Then i merged the two parts and let it sit on the hops for another 5 minutes before cooling.When i was trying to think of a name i figured that was appropriate.LiverDance wrote:I love the name as well.mcgster wrote:Thanks!

Re: 2014 National Capital Home Brew Competition
Cool, interesting concept. Did you dry hop or get enough aroma from the steeping?
