Tosche Station Brewhouse #7: Yub Nub! Freedom Pale Ale

Download

Welcome back to the Brewhouse! This month Dave Clark formerly of Sounder at Heart and currently of the Tacoma Defiance joins us to craft a Wicket W. Warrick themed pale ale utilizing Picobrew’s Model C system and Freestyle PicoPak Crafter. If you want to brew along with us, the recipe is below!

Yub Nub Freedom Pale Ale

Characteristics: 6.4% ABV | 35 IBU | 10 SRM

Base Recipe: American Pale Ale

Grains:

  • 60 oz. Amreican Two-Row Pale
  • 4 oz. Crystal 60L
  • 6.5 oz. Rye

Hops:

  • .6 oz. Summit as bittering
  • .2 oz. Cascade as flavor
  • .3 oz. Amarillo as aroma
  • .2 oz. Simcoe as aroma

Note: Picobrew will ship this PicoPak with a packet of American ale yeast, but Dave suggests tracking down a packet of wild yeast from your local homebrew shop to use instead to give this beer a little more of a farmhouse saison vibe.

Stay tuned for an announcement of our next guest and a review of our past recipes!

Holonet Blast #106

Not a lot of news dropped this week, but that doesn’t matter – it was Vanity Fair week! Just like for The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, Annie Leibovitz photographed the cast of The Rise of Skywalker. The pictures, as always, are gorgeous. There’s also a rather long article by author Lev Grossman, heavy on speculation but also with some new tidbits. The Knights of Ren are officially back; Keri Russell was “revealed” to play the masked scoundrel Zorri Bliss; Richard Grant is Allegiant General Pryde; there’s a year between TLJ and TRoS; J.J. Abrams commented on using archival footage of Carrie Fisher for new scenes with Leia.

Check out the photos and article here. My favorite photo, of the two coolest cats in the galaxy, is below.

We’re finishing our read of BATTLEFRONT: TWILIGHT COMPANY by Alexander Freed, discussing chapter 30 to the end of the book and discussing Howl and Namir’s relationship, Chalis’s true motivations, and what it means to Twilight (and the Rebellion as a whole) that Namir decided to stay and liberate Pinyumb.
