Rustic Mug Brewing

Rustic Mug Brewing Engineer by day, brewer by night. Started brewing in 2018 and never looked back. Why "Rustic Mug" Brewing? Think farmers and farmhands.

My most enjoyed beers are synonymous with traditional blue collar work. Historical working class folk.

Brewing for 8is years and never landed a beer the Mrs likes… she’s tried a couple commercial sours recently so I dusted off the Mash & Boil to try my first kettle sour. Going to be a Blackberry. Fingers crossed it’s yummy.

UNYHA did a team brew off. A few of the club members came over and brewed with me a few weeks back. Worth it!! Took the top spot out of 6 teams. Fantastic Hefeweizen!! Great team.

Latest round of cans looking good. Enjoying the new approach inspired by Trillium.

Kegging up a Hefeweizen that we brewed up as part of an internal UNYHA competition. Smells and tastes wonderful.

A little oxidation in the last big hazy IPA. I can tell because the color is not as bright, a little more brown than yellow/gold and the flavor is becoming more muted. Not too concerned yet as it still tastes good. Patrick Waldo Whelehan and I will just prioritize this one over the next few weeks. But it does mean I need to tighten up my Hazy IPA process. Always learning.
