Peach State Brew Off Entries Submitted

Posted at 10:42 pm by Patrick under Home Brewing

It’s that time of year again — the Peach State Brew Off entry deadline has come and gone. While I won’t be trying to defend my win in the English Ales category last year, I have entered four beers for feedback:

> an Imperial Stout brewed last May
> a Belgian Pale Ale modeled after Orval
> a very dry Saison, and
> an IPA made with a boatload of centennial and amarillo hops (including 1 oz for dry hopping)

I think the Imperial Stout and IPA have a good shot at placing. The one I am most curious about is the Saison…it is a less-known style here in the US, and the number of commerical examples available here is somewhat small. I’ll post the results when they come in.

Lagers are still — lagering

The Marzen and Bock that Sean and I brewed back in January are slowing working their way to keg readiness. When we tasted them two weeks ago, they seemed smooth, malty and ready for consumption. i can’t wait to get it on tap.
