Bottled the Wedding

We bottled two batches today, so I'm down to three more batches to deal with. There's a Belgian strong dark aging in my office, an Apple Brandy Barrel Brew aging in Lansdale, and a saison that needs to be racked in Lansdale. I have hops planted in Williamstown and Maple Shade, too! Forgive my lack of details, but I'll get the malt and grain bills up soon.

The first, "Ball and Chain" is an aptly named beer we originally thought we were going to serve at the wedding, but we ultimately decided that transporting homebrew and having enough time for it to settle and clear would have been a problem. It's a basic pale and crystal base, with some fun going on with the hops; I'll update with the hopping bill later.

The second, "Whatever, I'm Pumping," is a British best bitter, and is an experiment with a dry English ale yeast. There was a mild medicinal note, but I'm not sure if that was from the yeast or not and I bottled it directly from the primary.

T-minus one week!
