Notes

I wanted to make a really piney northwest IPA. A recent trip to Scotland made me fall in love with craft Gin and their piney nature. Soak 1lb of juniper berries with a 750ml bottle of navy strength gin. I added a splash of dry vermouth and one piece of lemon rind to give it that martini spin. I let this soak for about two weeks prior to brewing the beer. After the beer is brewed, wait another two weeks; drain the berries into a plastic bag, use a rolling pin to crack the berries, put the berries into a muslin bag and throw that in the fermentor with the last bit of hops. Let that sit another few days and it is good to go.
