FINALLY got around to brewing this one again and curious to see how it turns out.
Changed around a little bit based on what ingredients I had on hand.. Subbed 6lb of LME for the DME the original recipe called for, and adjusted the hops a little, the %AA on my Perle was a bt lower than what was called for so bumped that up a little...
My yeast was past it's prime, when I boght it the expiration was getting close, and then I couldn't brew for a while. I made a 1L starter, followed by 3L to bring the cell count up. Then, things happened, and I didint get to bre for a few more weeks. We will see how it goes!

Ever since the first time I tried Dead Guy I have been a fan. Actually, like just about everything Rogue. Ever since I started brewing a DG clone was in the plans. It just had to be. It isn't super easy to get near here (More of a drive than difficult..) and to buy enough to share the price sure adds up. Plus it sure would be nice to have this one on tap in the basement every couple months!
Sometime in the next week I am going to have to get this one going. I always said I would hold out until my temperature control is solid, and I have run two brews, one a lager, through my fermentation fridge and it has been great. Holding within 1/2 degree of my set point and ramping up and down perfectly when needed. So, it is time.
I looked around and found a bunch of different recipes. I finally settled on one that was supposed to have been developed in collaboration with one of the brewers at Rogue. True? I don't know. But I am going to give it a shot, planning on this weekend if we get a rainy day that keeps us inside. Everything was ordered from MoreBeer.com. I hope to wash and save the yeast for future batches as well.

In the homebrewing world we are always trying to clone a great brew. Occasionally a brewer will help out and give some advice, sometimes even publish a recipe of theirs. However, this week Brew Dog went above and beyond and released the recipe for every brew they have produced, scaled down to 5 gallon batches. They clearly spent some time putting this together too, it is a very nicely produced document. Head on over to www.brewdog.com and grab a copy of it today! I am definitely looking forward to trying some of these out.

I recently had the chance to brew up the Black Friday Stout that I got for christmas - finally had the time and gear. Got a chance to try out the modified Corona mill, and it worked great! And it is fermenting away in the fridge-turned-fermentation chamber powered by BrewPi
The stout looks like it is going to come out very nice. Grain bill and all the info coming soon
**Update, 4/6/16**
Being that I am going to be out of town for two weeks, I bottled this one Monday so that it is ready when I get home - well almost ready. From the smell I think this one is going to come out great. Had a very nice roasty, coffee smell to it. I only got to taste a really small sample, not enough to judge the flavor. So far very happy with how this came out. Recipe to be added really soon.
