    My Pirate Life Throwback IPA clone

    Its a simple sugar so will be entirely consumed by the yeast, resulting in a lower finishing gravity reading - the beer will have a drier finish. Pretty common in big IIPAs so you end up with a less malty finish, bringing the hops forward. You could sub with dextrose to get the same effect.

    How accurate are you finding the readings? Does it get thrown off by krausen etc?

    Holgate Hop Tart

    This could make for a nice lazy brew day. Mash the night before, transfer to kettle, add some grain for lacto, boil in the morning. Do i trust my crummy chinese temp controller to hold temp though? heh.

    Holgate Hop Tart

    Oxygen bad when souring? Is it worth pumping co2 in there before sealing then? Might have to try this as an experimental brew. Edit: This link has some more info - looks like they did use grain to introduce the lacto:

    Their new New Zealand Pale Ale is great as well. Every beer they put out is top quality. I'd love to know what they are doing in their dry hop process, they get insane hop aroma into the can.

    When will 2016 hops be available for sale

    Will be interesting to see if southern hemisphere hop varieties start to become sparse too, there must be more demand seeing as the US crops seem to be short.
