Good details. Definitely going to try.

Awesome vid! Clear, easy directions to follow once you have your kit together. Looking forward to more flavors.

Thanks for this video, Trent. This looks delicious! I’d love to see some content on getting started, maybe home brewing essentials. Can’t wait to see your next creations.

One of the things that I love about your brew shows is the video clip at the intro where you clink a glass of Augustiner Lager. It always reminds me of my best drinking experience at the Augustiner brewery garten enjoying liters of Augustiner brau under the chestnut trees with a 1/2 chicken and stumbling my way to my Munich hotel. A close second is hiking down the Augspitze (1/2 way... probably 1/4way) and having a beer or two at some of the gasthaus. Keep up the great work!

Looks like a good recipe Trent. Enjoyed the video, keep brewing my friend!

[WhiteLabsInc]

Looks delicious! Our brewery uses hibiscus in specialty kegs a few times a year and the pleasant tartness it adds is always surprising.

Hi Trent! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! I just discovered your channel but I'm already a fan. I noticed that you did not explicitly mention carbonation or priming during the kegging/bottling portion of the video. Just for clarification: setting a desired pressure in the keg is where the carbonation comes into play, correct? Thanks a lot!

[jamesweisman]

This is some great quality instruction Trent. What an awesome video, I’m looking forward to the next one. Hope you get a million subscribers one day!

Great video, so clearly presented and a great flavour combo - thank you for posting. I've brewed with Lemondrop hops and hibiscus flowers, just never together. A recipe I will definitely try. When I punched the recipe into Beersmith, it came back with ~37 IBUs with the 28g of Magnum addition. More than the saisons I've done previously, so I wondered how the bitterness worked with the flavour profile after it had conditioned. My experience with french saison yeast (which I love) is that it's voracious and can mellow both flavour and bitterness.

Yum! This looks fantastic! Awesome job on the video :). Would love to see a 101 type thing, like basics, and basic equipment necessary to start. Can't wait to see more!

I am copying this recipe for my 5th homebrew. Thanks for the content!

We recently made 1 gallon of cherry hibiscus mead that's about ready to be bottled. I'd never had hibiscus until we bought it for the mead, now I drink hibiscus tea almost daily. I have an autoimmune disease (rheumatoid arthritis) that it actually helps with. It also helps me sleep at night. Really good stuff. This beer looks tasty, may have to try it.

[danytalloen]

I think I'll try this... in combination with rosehip because I know that flavourcombination from tea.

[trevgoldie]

Yo great vid! This looks like something I’ll need to do

[josephritchie]

Super great video! Very informative channel. Did you use tap water, distilled, or RO?

[jesseemling]

You added dextrose twice in your video. Is this correct? When should it be added?

[lorenzovonmatterhorn]

Got my first beer kit. And found your channel. Subscribe

[keithdempsey]

Great vid, I'm just starting off, upgrading from kit to biab, one question how do you convert from % to weight, I'm used to weighing out my ingredients. Cheers. 🍺🍺🍺

[davidhughes]

Also your outdoor heating stand is amazing, where do you get that?

[brandoniv]

This looks super refreshing! Any thoughts on pitching Philly Sour for the first few days (~4) and then proceed with the 3711? I figure that would make a nicely tart sour saison (maybe add some lemon peel? Maybe that's overkill though)
