Spruce Winter Warmer

Post by pet lion » Sat Dec 10, 2011 5:55 pm

I brewed this up on December 6th. Racked to the carboy last night. I had some spruce tips left my freezer from my spruce beer I made earlier this year so I got an idea in my head. After downloading Brewtarget and fooling around with it for a week I came up with my first recipe. Tastes pretty good already.
