Translation: Raccoon Tail Beer… a.k.a. Tanooki’s Mexican Lager. Sure Mario was Italian, but we’re pretty sure he celebrated Cinco De Mayo in his Tanooki suit because he loves to party. Dress it up with a little salt and lime, and take off and fly with this lager tinted in Mittelfruh and Motueka hops. This lager was brewed at the Hopping Grape birthday celebration for Keith Brooks and will be entered into the Cinco De Mayo homebrew competition hosted by Galveston Bay Brewing… we didn’t win, but we had fun brewing!

Translation: Fire Breath Beer… a.k.a. Bowsers’s Mexican Lager. Bowser is blowing up Cinco De Mayo by adding a little spice to Tanooki’s Mexican Lager. This recipe is the same as Cerveza De La Cola De Mapache, as we split it and added some heat. This lager was brewed at the Hopping Grape birthday celebration for Keith Brooks and will be entered into the Cinco De Mayo homebrew competition hosted by Galveston Bay Brewing… we didn’t win, but we had fun brewing!

Our first attempt at a white stout and it turned out perfect! We brewed this on location in the Hopping Grape parking lot as a part of their Two Year Anniversary “brew-in” competition. This was in association with the Texas Beer Refinery in Texas City. Unfortunately, the results were never judged, so we truly have no clue how this beer would have faired. That said, this was one of our most fun beers to brew start to finish, and we loved the chocolatey coffee surprise that you get hit with but are not expecting from such a light colored beer.
