Young Jova Brewery: the Doran Day Irish Stout

It’s winter and it’s snowing like crazy here in Chicago. Perfect time to start brewing the Young Jova Doran Day Irish Stout.  It should be ready just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. :-)   Check out the recipe at my neighbor’s blog, Young Jova Home Brew.

My fellow brewmasters: Nick Anderson and Josh Schay.

Brewing an IPA

Got the chance to brew an IPA with my neighbors.

Phase 1: Making the wort [pronounced wert].

Phase 2: Primary fermentation – transferred wort to the fermenter and pitched the yeast.

And now we wait for phase 3… profit.
