All ingredients for today's batch were grown in Indiana.

Mash is almost done.

Nice. I like the idea of 100% "locally grown" beers as niche styles. I am glad to see many states working with local growers to help develop sustainable businesses.

can you share some information on the ingredients (including the producers) , your expectations and then final results? I'd be interested in following this. I done brews with partial sourced stuff but never a 100% local. I guess yeast doesn't count although I supposed one could harvest yeast in the spirit of locally sourced.

Nice! What's the recipe?

Three gallons.
I decided against the pale chocolate malt.

Haha Crazy Horse cascades. Looks like a great beer.

Sugar Creek malts, Crazy Horse hops, and Seib's Hoosier honey.
My only expectation is beer.
I'm not bold enough to harvest wild yeast.

I enjoyed reading up on your local farmers.

Sugar Creek is wonderful. If I ever move out of Indiana and shipping 55-pound bags gets too expensive, I’m seriously going to consider ordering a pallet of grain just so I can keep using their products.

I just received some Sugar Creek malts for my next beer. Looking fwd to it.

Cool! Which malts, and what are you brewing with them?

I got Pilsner and Munich for a ‘Country Helles’ featuring ’22 harvest year Edelweiss hops.
