I brewed three batches this fall, two rebrews of previous batches and a simple new one, putting me at four brews deep after my move to Berkeley. My first brew here, the annual Spicy Jalapeño Saison, is another rousing success. The next three brews were a first-time rye pale ale, which has been bottled, conditioned, and is currently being enjoyed; a rebrew of the peanut butter porter I brewed in the 2012-2013 winter; and a rebrew of the single-hop IPA recipe I augmented into a double IPA and brewed on July 4, 2013. I've been enjoying the rye pale ale and have noted a maturation from the first bottle I drank. The PB Porter was tasted at the end of the first week of December and the double IPA was bottled November 29 to be tasted before year's end.
