About Lagers

If you haven't noticed, I haven't been making lagers and only have one (Pilsner) listed on the blog poll.  I have been ignoring a huge range of styles and it wont continue much longer.  Lagers are definitely overlooked by the craft beer community and I plan to make a few at Payette Brewing.  The reason that I haven't been making them is my current set-up doesn't give me quite enough control over fermentation to properly ferment and mature the different styles of lagers.  There is something about lagers that fascinated me, but right now I don't feel that I can do them justice. 

For all you fans of Pilsners, Bocks, Vienna Lagers and plenty of other styles, your beers will come, don't worry.

  1. I just brewed a Czech Pils with a disaster of a step mash schedule. I have a feeling I am going to end up with a very dry beer, but who knows... it'll be beer.. eventually.
