Needed someplace for brewnotes -

Jalapeno Amber Ale (real name pending)

Start date: 5/15/11
Batch size: 5 gal
Original Gravity: 1.060

This was originally the "Smashing Pumpkin" kit from Northern Brewers - I left out the pumpkin spice and replaced it with 1.25lbs roasted and then halved jalapenos. 3 in the boil, the rest in the fermenter. Seeds and all, so I'm just a little nervous :)

Getting up to the boil took forever, but it was steady once that started. That was Sunday, fermentation started Monday afternoon. Excited to see how this one turns out... Will have a small taste once it's done fermenting.
