After much searching, I finally found myself 4oz of Marsh Rosemary at http://www.wildweeds.com
Sweet!!!In addition, I had been contemplating moving to a new gruit idea, based upon Belgian brewing and herbs. I hadn't even begun any research on it, and viola .. this month's Zymurgy magazine has a Belgium Golden Gruit Ale recipe that took Runner-Up BOS in a small competition up north. Got lots of ideas running through my head now! (And thankfully, no wormwood in this one..
)In other gruit news, my yarrow plants here in the OC are flowering, and I've started to harvest them. Not sure if I'll have enough yield to get my 2 oz. though... we'll see. I've read that you can often get 2 harvests from yarrow.
I also saw some cool ideas for Lemon Balm in a sessionable american wheat... that sounds kinda tasty! Also, I read up on Avens, which has a clove-like flavor/aroma. Haven't found a source yet, but that sounds interesting too!
I'll be out of town for 2 weeks starting Monday, so hope everyone has some great brewing sessions in June!
