After a morning of cleaning the chimneys and the gutters, I dove into making an IPA for Claire. Since it has been a pretty busy summer at the shop, I hadn't made beer for quite a while. A good customer of ours at the shop brought me some Cascade hops he had grown himself. After drying them, I ended up with 8 ounces. I used it all. Using fresh hops is always a little bit of a chore since you end up with "volleyball" size bags of hops floating around in your beer.
