Thunder Boomer + Pigeonbush = Yummy

The co-President of a fellow aspiring brewing company, Pigeonbush BC (and one that will be featured at Remfest V) stopped on by to help bottle Mayhem #1 and brew up a brown ale for Remfest V. Although it took us almost 4 hours (we didn't start the boil until well past 7 due to the 90+ degree weather, which makes for cookin' some burgs under the 'ole armpit very easy) to complete both tasks, the final solution was to call this Honeybrown Ale an almagamation of the two companies: ThunderBush.

Recipe below. The Rook seems to be MIA lately, probably tending to his fanmail from the reaction to EM's crazy, sexy, cool new album. Boomer was preparing for a jaunt down to the southwest with his future inlaws (foregone conclusion at this point). Thus Thunder asked for some help from Mr. P, aka Andiconda.

1/2 lb of crystal grain (L?)
1/2 lb of chocolate grain

3.3 lb can of amber ME
1 lb of light DME
1.5 lb high quality clover honey

1 oz cascade hops for 30'
1 oz willamette hops for 30'

tsp Irish moss

Recipe come from Walpole Wine & Spirits, about a beer can toss from Mr. P's house.

Pilsner #2

Ditto on the Mayhem. But has been in the primary carboy for 13 days...hope it isn't too yeasty.

All for Remfest V.
