Stache Bash '17

[jmcnamara]

so i've been tasked with brewing a commemorative beer for our somewhat annual mustache competition. This year it'll be held in Rehoboth / Dewey beach area of Delaware, in Feb.

any ideas for a style or special ingredients to use? i'm gonna nix beard yeast off the bat here

if it helps, i'm planning on doing a hollywood hogan-esgue trim, complete with part of it dyed blonde

with it being cold I would say a nice winter brown ale, maybe with some spice or coffee notes to it

 

[jmcnamara]

good suggestion.

i've thought for a while now that brown ales are criminally under the radar

Lots of carafoam. Or oats.

wow, thanks!

im definitely intrigued by that huge brown ale, with saison yeast no less

Ive brewed that it was too alcoholic, I would use less sugar and regular brown sugar or even cane will also work, it came off very sweet and strong, I ended up adding some all spice making a holiday brew, mixed with whipped cream lol
