Andys Rock Out with the Hawk Out Pale Ale
Well yesterday I decided to play with my new Spaltz hops. I have never tried these but have heard a lot of good about them. My LHBS owner says these are one of his favorite types of hops. I also tried a new idea of mine (new to me probably old news to everyone else) and used muslin bags for my hops. It seemed to work great and I had a lot less sludge in the bottom after I transfered to the primary. It really made for easy clean up if nothing else. So far everything is going right and good on this one. I woke up this morning and the yeast was doing the happy dance. I will leave it in the primary for about 10 - 14 days and throw it in the keg for Andys visit. Andy is the best friend I have ever had and that is saying a lot but it is true. That is why I named this one for him. Here is the recipe I used. PROST!
