Notes

6/20/15: Just took a sample of this funky BIAB experiment in SMaSH beer... 100% rye and 100% Amarillo hops. Haven't commited to the dry hopping yet (probably will start it next week when we'll be bottling our biere de garde) but this is a very bizarre product thus far. The nose is funky, lemony and very rye-forward (obviously) and the taste is slightly tangy, fruity and orange-heavy with a big citrus blast. Refreshing and surprisingly heavier bodied than expected. Excited to dry-hop with a dose of more Amarillo than any of the other additions to see how "extreme" we can get with this little guy. Should get about 9-10 bottles total out of this batch.

10/17/15: This has actually turned into quite a nice little beer for such a dumb experiment (SMaSH BIAB beer). Full disclosure, I dry-hopped it with basically everything we had remaining in the fridge at the time. I think there was some Motueka, Mosaic and Target in there, and who knows what else. Anyway, it's really good surprisingly. Very, very hoppy and well=carbonated with some weird plastic-y notes (that aren't "bad" actually and seem to work decently). The rye is definitely spicy, chewy and earthy and the hops are bright, fruity and juicy with some floral and grassy notes. Good stuff. Kinda proud of this little 8 bottle batch.
