I don't know why I was obsessed with using spearmint in a beer, but I was and this is the result. I am also a fan of amber ales and was disappointed with our first amber attempt, so I combined my need for a better amber ale with the need to put spearmint in a beer. We also had to move our brewing location due to unforeseen difficulties, so this is the first beer brewed at the new location. I also want to thank my friend Rob (not the one in our little beer club) for donating a refrigerator so that I now have complete control over fermentation temperatures. I will let you know how I think that effected the beer in my tasting comment. Finally I experimented with large amounts of steeping grains. I steeped 4.5 lbs of Honey, Crystal 30, and Cara-Pils grains. This beer used Galena and Liberty hops, Spearmint in the secondary fermentor, had an OG of 1.046, and 22 IBUs.
Here are some pictures of the new brewery.
