If a picture is worth a thousand words then 27 photos (at flickr) might be worth a million.
The Interstellar Galactic Brewery team carved one pumpkin to create a mash tun, then fermented in another.
What could be cooler? A three-tier pumpkin system, I guess. And maybe one in which the lid didn’t collapse into the beer during fermentation. Looks as if they might end up with a wild pumpkin beer.
The search for a definition of beer terroir continues, but this could be part of it.
Thanks to Eric Trimmer at Trouble Brewing for spotting this.
This came out on a listserve of homebrewers, and I checked out the whole series. Absolutely amazing. I don’t care if the beer turns out or not–the photo essay is worthy of an art show itself. Brewing art show? Hmm…
If you click on the Interstellar Galatic Brewery link you’ll get the array of photos. It is definitely worth the time to look at each one with the caption. Some great captions.
