Lake Effect Brewing: Status Update
http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2011/09/status-update.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Friday, September 23, 2011. The Gose that I brewed isn't as great as I would have hoped either. Since I used aciduated malt, as suggested by Brew Your Own, the flavor produced is more similar to a wort spoilage, rather than a true bacterial infection of the beer. It gives the beer a bit more of a sour milk/tea-like flavor than anything else. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Flying Bison Brewing Company. Pearl Street Grill and Brewery.

Lake Effect Brewing: March 2012
http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Saturday, March 10, 2012. Kegerator Build Part 2. A couple weeks ago, I bought the mini fridge that I would use for the insides of my kegerator. While brewing one Saturday, I took some time and separated the internals from the useless (to me at least) outer shell. The next thing I did was remove the steel shell from the insulation and disconnect the compressor from the frame. Next, I took out the freezer compartment that will distribute the cooled freon inside the kegerator.

http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-years-ball-drop-weizen-bock.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Monday, January 23, 2012. New Years Ball Drop Weizen Bock. For the yeast, I went with a standard WYeast 3068 Weihenstephan blend. Listening to the Basic Brewing podcast and reading Brewing with Wheat. As I said earlier, I had a couple of friends come over to help. They decided to bring their cameras along and got some nice shots after our first snowfall of the year. I'll leave you with a couple of them (the pictures, not my friends). On Deck: Dark American Lager.

Lake Effect Brewing: August 2011
http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Thursday, August 25, 2011. The Gose is Loose! I have been excited about this beer ever since I read an article about it in Brew Your Own. Magazine toward the end of last years hockey season. Something intrigued me about it from the very start. What couldn't be loved about a salty, sour, spicy beer, and whats more, it's name lent itself perfectly to somebody who's a Buffalo Sabres fan. The Gose is Loose was born. Primary: The Gose is Loose, Harvest Ale, Wild Yeast Test Batch.

Lake Effect Brewing: February 2012
http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Wednesday, February 1, 2012. Kegerator Build Part 1. As I said, this project is going to be massive, and so is the fridge. Its large enough to fit four kegs and underneath in the small cabinet, I will be able to stash a couple tools and the CO 2. Tank One of the biggest challenges is going to be taking apart a mini fridge and somehow getting the internals into the fridge. It sounds like it will be hard, but we shall see. Primary: German Pilsner, Dark American Lager. I star...

Lake Effect Brewing: July 2011
http://lakeeffectbrewing.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
New York Homebrew Competitions. Thursday, July 28, 2011. An Underground Beer Culture Surviving in Wine Country Part 2. Well that night came and it was everything I could ever want in a bar. L'Antre de l'Echoppe. They only had two of their own beers on tap, but they were both spectacular. When we went up to Carcassonne after Narbonne, I was hell bent on finding some Biers de Carcassonne. We never went to the Abbaye de Valmange. So in the end, I would have to say I am pretty impressed with the beers the so...
