So, I am just finishing up my first solo 46 litre brew of a Galaxy APA. I have renamed the beer to Yellow Jacket to reflect on of the uninteded ingrediants in todays brew. When I put the first runnings of the mash in the boil kettle I went to Read's to grab a coffee. When I got back and poured the sparge water in, a drowned yellow jacket hornet was floating around the kettle. I swear to God he had a smile on his face :o. I decided to put the lid on the kettle when I saw a leaf from my butternut tree rolling around in the boil.
-
did you left the hornet there for the boil? lol

A buddy of mine back in the Coopers kit days used to do open fermentation on all of his beers... and he had four cats.

I can't imagine that worked out well. Did he at least cover the bucket with a towel?

How's this for an unusual ingredient. The leftovers from a roasted chicken! I've got a recipe for Cock Ale. It calls for the carcase and leftovers of a roasted chicken to be put in a muslin bag and added after fermentation begins and left in the fermenter for three days. Then removed and left until fermentation is over. I haven't had the balls to try it yet but you never know I might get brave and try it.

You had the cock, but not the balls :P

Yea something like that! :pal:
-
Roger, that just sounds so wrong.

Great, another thing that tastes like chicken...
