Post by Pretzel Beer on Dec 15, 2014 17:26:46 GMT -5
Recipe coming...the long short of it is my buddy who brewed #14 introduced me to brewing several months ago and this was my second or third brew session ever. It's a blast and I'm looking forward to getting my own beer equipment now that I have space to do so.
We envisioned a red ale that was the perfect companion to a big crunchy tasty delicious pretzel. We both immediately went to a red as the answer. As I remember it #14 devised the recipe. My big contribution was deciding not to dry hop the beer, tasting it now I'm happy with the result.
Also as a quick side note, I recently started a new job and my schedule change led to me being almost 2 weeks late even picking up my advent calendar!! I'm going to catch up and post on everyone's beer as I get to them.
Thanks guys,
Warren

Very smooth, and a nice body to it. I'm pumped to see the recipe, it goes down great! Welcome to the world of brewing! It's a great hobby and hopefully I'll get the chance to try more of your creations. I didn't have any pretzels to pair it with but it paired wonderfully with a pot roast and carrots.

Oh, for a moment I thought this beer was supposed to taste like a pretzel ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I thought it was good. Not especially different, but I mean that in a good way. It struck me as a solid brew, something I'd keep on tap as a house draft. I think that sometimes brewers (both the pros and amateurs alike) get lost trying to come up with something unique and forget that sometimes a simple, GOOD beer is in order. Cheers!

Pretty tasty beer, well brewed. I think it would go well with a pretzel. Good luck on your new job!
