The belgian wit I brewed recently was a big hit at Isabelle's 1st birthday party, and I must say is a really good summer brew. The yeast combination worked out just like I thought it would, with a banana/clove aroma and taste up front, and a fruity/spicy belgian finish. It looks a little wierd, but is continuing to clear. Really good!
And the really exciting news is my hop plants are kicking ass! The centennial has 2 bines going (I cut back the others), with 1 over 14 feet tall, the other about 8 feet tall. They have a lot of cones developing, so I will certainly get some fresh hops. The cascade has 5 bines growing, and they are all about 8 to 12 feet tall. Cones are also starting to develop on those as well. Awesome!
