The Belgian Strong Golden is off and running! The Wyeast 1388 has got to be one of the strangest yeasts I’ve ever brewed with. The ferment took off in a little over three hours and a large krausen head formed by 7:00 p.m. last evening. It was blowing CO2 like crazy! When I checked it this morning, the krausen had already dropped, but it was still fermenting wildly. If it goes like the starter, it will be done in a few days…
We’re having Easter brunch with Stephen at the BrewBarn. It’s our traditional Easter event, and the familiar faces are here:) Stephen made fabulous grilled prime rib sandwiches.
We shared some North Coast Brother Thelonious, Green Flash Imperial IPA, and some Bear Republic Racer 5. All in all, a great low-key afternoon! Thanks, Stephen:)
