So our first brew day is upon us. After driving around the city all day because our propane tank was leaking and we thought it was a broken gasket, we finally started at 5pm. After much guess work we decided to flavor our farmhouse ale with pink peppercorns, coriander, fenugreek and honey. Hopefully it will bring out the fruity peppery notes. We decided to go with a mix or east Kent goldings for bitterness and Syrian goldings and saaz for that lemony flavor. After all was said and done we finished just after midnight and will sleep soundly dreaming of delicious beer. Should be about 3 weeks for primary but I will keep everyone posted.
