In coming April, a home brewing competition named 'Korea Home-Brewing Championship 2017' will be held in Seoul. I was heard of it in late February when the final date of submitting will end within days. It was lucky for me to keep describing a magazine about beer and craft beer scene, called 'Beer Post'.

It can be a lie that I'm fully confident about winning the competition. I just hope that I can learn something during the whole process. Submit, search and analyze to create my own recipe, practice home brewing one more time, labeling, and most importantly, enjoy everything follows.
Competitors can choose one beer style out of four : IPA, saison, stout, weizen. I chose IPA because I want to drink it at that time. The style I was aim to is the brown IPA. This style has its article in BJCP style guide in 2015. I was thinking : without a wort chiller, I was forced to brew in a way of high-gravity brewing that means I'll make a very strong wort with less water(less than what the recipe says) then add icy water to make the wort cool. That could influence to my final output, make it darker, I expect. So it seems to be safe to announce that I'll brew "brown" IPA.
I've searched and collected some IPA recipe from the well-known book <Homebrewing for dummies> and several brewing kits sold in homebrewing shops with a good reputation among Korean homebrewers. Which is the process helps me to learn a lot.
Here's my recipe. It is also the first recipe I made. I can't wait to see how the output is going to be. Like : how the color would be with Caramel malt 90L? and I'm excited so much about using Chinook and Amarillo!

학과에서 단체 견학으로 4/21부터 29까지 약 일주일 독일 뮌헨에 다녀왔다. 지난 학기 센서리 과목을 맡았던 아드리안 교수가 인솔했는데, 예전에 독일에서 수학한 경험이 있는 분이라 견학 프로그램을 알차게 짜주셔서 재밌게 다녀옴. 뮌헨에서 가장 유...
