First let’s get the name right. Lagunitas is pronounced “LAH-GOO-KNEE-TUSS”. I hate mispronouncing beers but do it all the time. Say “LAH-GOO-KNEE-TUSS” with me. Now let’s turn to mondo. Mondo means huge right. Not a lot of Swedes...

Back to brewing…. what superb feeling. Creating and experiencing something new and delightful is the draw for me. Trying to make something I’ve never tasted, indeed that no one has. Every beer is as unique as every brewer, the subtleties are infinite and it often...

All I wanted was a beer after trying to put together a baby crib. With a baby on the way there is a lot to get done. We got a new crib delivered today so I attempted to put it together. Of course, the directions were worthless and it took me half an hour just to...

Central Waters Ouisconsing Red Ale

by Matt | American Amber / Red Ale, Central Waters Brewing Company, Mug, Pilsner Glass, Pint Glass, United States, Wisconsin | 0 comments

Pours a nice, red amber, clear and bubbly with a one-finger head. Fruity ale smell- pleasant- malts and floral hops. First sip really hit me with an iron presence and I was immediately turned off. My first instinct is that the iron note comes from the water used in...
