The Dead Rouge Ale kit is in the carboy and fermentation is under way. I did a adjunct of 7 or 8 ounces of Mesquite honey from Flagstaff. I added the hone in the last 10 minutes of the boil at the same time as the aroma hops.
I’m interested to see how the beer turns out, I didn’t pull back on any of the malt or candy I don’t think it will be a overly sweet beer. You never know with home brew though that’s part of the joy.
Also brewing in the backyard worked much better then brewing in the garage, more space and less cleanup after a boil over.
15 days in the carboy, and then the keg.
