@Roger named your beer, now you owe him a bottle!

Finally brewed the black box challenge winning beer last night 

I dryhopped my black box beer with around 4 ounces of citra last night.   

As the late, great, Eddie Guerrero once said: Cheat 2 Win.

I'll be pouring 4-5 cans of Heady Topper in a growler and submitting that.  Good luck with your Citra

First lager; with a mash paddle made by my father-in-law.

I've been collecting maple sap every day for about a week...  I have 12 trees taped and am only up to about 4ish gallons now, it's not running very well...

I'm hoping to get 15ish gallons to make a maple saison and/or a wild blackberry maple stout.

Will you be using the sap instead of water or boil it down and add it as syrup later?

All sap for the mash and sparge, no water at all.   I'm hoping the "mapleness" doesn't go away in the fermentation.

I got the inspiration after tasting @Roger 's birch saison last year.

I'll be interested to hear how it comes out. I've read that the 'mapleness' doesn't come through from using sap and most just add syrup to the keg. Birch syrup is pretty potent stuff so maybe the sap is a bit more distinct.

Roger's use of sap creates a really tasty beer with lots of maple character.

I've been collecting from a few trees as well, kinda surprised with the lack of flow as well! I've got about 2 gallons now after two weeks and 4 medium size sugar maples. Not exactly sure what recipe I'll use it for though...
