If some of you homebrewers want one they are one per person and first come first serve. They are with the girls in the store.<br /><br />All whole flower hops above 13.5% alpha.

The Dunkel is still on tap and there is a new arrival of an ESB that has been dubbed "Crimson Ale" in honor of the Utes' football team. And no, it's not red nor is at a red ale. English Bitter.<br />The Flander's is a new project and is not the same beer as Cherry Luv. Don't tell anybody about it though. I am so excited for that beer to come out and I won't want to share any of it with anybody.<br />I also stopped by for a quickie at Red Rock today and tried the wet-hopped ale. Very resiny and good. I was inspired by that pint to make my way over to the High Desert hop farm itself to procure some hops for myself. I got some, but they were very, very expensive. $4/oz. is about double what I usually pay for hops, and I was surprised to receive this price directly from the farmer while also buying in bulk. I didn't have the cajones to tell him no and put the hops back in the freezer. I don't mind paying a premium for a local product, but that seems a bit excessive.<br />Any word on when Donovan's high gravity bottled series will be available?Andynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15458742.post-30351592961067836302009-10-21T10:55:13.220-07:002009-10-21T10:55:13.220-07:00Doh!
