    Brew Mistake - Dump it or Keep it?

    keep it, bottle it, forget about it. Then in a month or 2 crack one open and find the most wonderful beer youve ever made. Optimism is best :) I made a "Desperado" Lager clone (lager with tequila) and it was vile!!! I could not even stand the smell. I still bottled it and left it out of...

    lager with Dissarono?

    the "Dr Pepper" cocktail was the reason why i thought about brewing a lager with Disaronno in it as the missus and I both like it so I wondered if i could tamper with a home brew. doesnt seem like the effort will be worth the outcome as it would prob be exactly the same as just pouring a bottle...

    lager with Dissarono?
