Gingerman Brewing

Sorry kids, brew day is delayed one day to let my aching body rest.

First taste of Scoutmaster. Gonna let it bottle condition for a another month or two to see if the overpowering mint flavor mellows out. Don't worry, we'll brew another, slightly tweaked batch later this Summer.

well...tasted the first batch of Scoutmaster tonight. I always said I'd be completely honest with my beer I brew. This one didn't turn out the best. There was too much mint added during fermentation. I think the next batch I do I'll just use regular Ghirardelli milk choclate instead of the Twilight Dark and about 1/3 of what I used on the mint. Part of brewing is experimenting and learning what works, and what doesn't.
On to the next brew for now, Campbell Clan Scotch Ale!

Hope you all have an amazing St. Paddy's Day with some delicious craft and/or home brews! Two weeks till we find out if the first batch of Scoutmaster tastes great, or sucks. ;-)
