Vacation Ale

Well I would like to start by saying that I am changing this blog to mean BrewLOG. That's right, this site will be devoted, as the URL would suggest, to Everything Brewed. Iced tea to Ice Wine. Hot sauce to Honey Lager. Anything that takes time to brew or even stew will be looked at here.
Today I pulled the first sample of my latest homebrew. I have called it my Vacation Ale because it was one of the tasks I completed during my vacation this past week. It is an American Amber with a slight hint of oak. That's probably because I put some oak chips in my secondary fermenter for about 3 days. I didn't want to over do it, just make in interesting.
It has an awesome amber color, a great carbonation level (kegged), and a nice hoppy finish. There are many pints left to pull so it will probably be a completely different beer in a month. Maybe I'll write about it again on the last glass.
