Homebrew Report - 1/31/09

Kegged my beers from three weeks ago, and I am mighty pleased with the results.

The Amber is big and bold, and fortunately the accidental extra ounce of hops didn't ruin the thick and malty character I was going for.

The Pale Ale is not hoppy enough to be an IPA, but hops is definitely the dominant characteristic, as it should be. It's perfectly light and clear, with a thick foam that holds its peaks like whipped cream. A success.

Now, it's time for names and silly labels.

UPDATE: Forgot the most important stuff! The Amber is 8.9%, the Pale Ale is 5.8%.
