October Fester - Great Fermentations - Brewed Sept 17, by WT

This post is after the fact since I brewed on September 17th and it's now December 3rd. I used the October Fester kit by Great Fermentations in Indianapolis. (My local homebrew store or LHBS for short) It was enjoyed by myself and several of my friends. I got good feedback from everyone who tried it and I think I will try it again in the future.

It was a little too hoppy for me. I seem to be very sensitive to bitter flavors so I can't enjoy overly hopped beer. Next time I will probably make an extra gallon and add extra malt but use the same amount of hops.

I posted about my first beer brew on the survival podcast forums. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of traffic over there. They were very helpful though and I will probably continue to cross post over there.
