The stove in my new apartment was a fluke, but with a couple immersion heaters I got better boils than I’ve ever had!

    It’s a simple pale ale with random hops from my parent’s yard. Trying out that hop was actually the reason why I got into homebrewing initially.

      Are those hops good? Would you share a bit of rhizome for me to clone?

      I can’t stop thinking that Finnish hops grown in chill weather might be a hidden treasure, once we figure out how to tune the recipes.

        I like them for sure! It’s a rather traditional earthy profile with some citrus standing out, and not too much alpha.

        No experience with rhizomes but looks easy enough. Yeah we can try that 👍🏻
