Ever wish you could taste your homebrew recipe on tap at your favorite pub, but aren't quite ready to give up your day job for a pair of rubber boots and a malt shovel? Well, a little less than a decade ago, a few lucky homebrewers in the Puget Sound participated in a Pro-Am competition, otherwise known as a collaborative competition between amateur and pro brewers.
In this recipe, homebrewers Rodney Clark and Colin Lenfesty teamed up with Big Horn Brewery in Kent, Wash. to create a delicious Belgian specialty ale with a spicy nose accented by coriander, grains of paradise, and a touch of ginger.
This recipe was originally featured in "Homebrew-Gone-Pro: Puget Sound Pro-am" by Gary Glass in the January/February 2008 issue of Zymurgy.
