I hope to make this one! Maybe I'll bring my Standard American Lager that I forgot to serve at SCHF.

If you can taste those ingredients, definitely experimental. BTW if you can't taste an ingredient, you may want to leave it out of the description when you describe it for the category.

Way to go DT!!!

Sounds like fun. I will see if I can make it. Might have to make stops at Bottle Logic and Hopperazzi as well.

It's a good comp with tons of entries. If you win here, you know you are on the right track.

I agree with Brent. It would be very difficult at the homebrew level to get an over abundance of O2 in your wort. If you are looking for a sight glass, the guys at Brewers Hardware would be glad to hook you up with one.

Noble Brewing did a sour kettle Berliner Weiss a while back. It turned out pretty good. Not sure if they added lacto to the mash or just let the natural little buggers do their work overnight. I remember Evan telling me that the brewery stunk really bad the next morning since he it let it sour overn...
