Lil' Big Hop American Pale Ale
Spring is coming and that means the AHA Nationals are fast approaching. With about a month and change to go, it's a perfect time to brew a hoppy pale ale. It should be nice and fresh for the first round of judging. Oh, and it'll be delicious when the weather starts to warm up a bit.

Goodbye to TheEremite
I'm dropping TheEremite.com domain. I picked up TheHolderfields.com a while ago and I figured it would suit this brew log just fine. So, hence forth this blog will be known as Matthew's Brew log or, Beer.TheHolderfields.com. I'll see if I can keep the feed the same. Hopefully you won't have to update your readers. TheEremite.com will remain for a while and redirect to here until the domain expires, but update your bookmarks now because TheEremite's days are numbered.
Southern English Brown
I've never brewed or drank a Southern English Brown and Milds aren't a favorite style of mine, but I've been on a small beer kick lately and I thought I'd like to make a malty but low gravity beer that tastes more substantial than you'd expect from a sub 4% beer. Maybe this will make me a fan of milds.

A barleywine to sit on
Sara drank the last of the barleywine I made about a year and a half ago, so it's time to make some more. I'm using the same basic recipe but I cut replaced the crystal 120 with crystal 40 to minimize the heavy fruity sweetness and get a little more toffee/caramel in there. I will also be aging it on heavy toast American Oak cubes.
I think if I want this one to last more than 2 years then I'm going to have to hide it from Sara.
Here's the rundown:

| I'll be brewing this one up on Saturday and I'll it on the yeast cake from the Pale Ale I brewed a month or so ago. No sense in buying 5 packs of yeast. Oh, and the corn sugar doesn't get added until primary fermentation starts to die down ~5-7 days in. | |
