Well, there’s isn’t much to say concerning the last few months other than the fact that it was a blur. Nate and I reached our goal of $40,000 on Kickstarter and are moving toward opening up the brewery (victory!). It will be a long and rewarding journey. Our recent activity hasn’t exactly been kind to [...] [...]

Strisselspalt Alt Bottled
Bottled the Alt last night after three weeks of cold conditioning down to near freezing. Filled 22 22-ounce bottles and two 12-ounce stubbies. I didn't add any additional yeast, so hopefully it's still viable. I guess I'll find out in a week or so when... [...] Read more →
