Russian River Homebrew Recipe Kits for Pliny the Elder, Blind Pig and Consecration

Russian River Clone Recipe for Pliny the Elder, Blind Pig and Consecration

Russian River Clone Recipe for Pliny the Elder, Blind Pig and Consecration

 

Russian River Brewing beers can be very difficult to get your hands on unless your live within close proximity to the brewery but now you can brew several of them at home.  MoreBeer has worked with Russian River and has release homebrew recipe kits for Pliny the Elder, Blind Pig and Consecration; which are three of Russian Rivers best beers in my opinion.  I have personally brewed the Pliny the Elder all grain home brewing kit and the Russian River Consecration homebrew kit and both turned out excellent. They offer all three of these home brewing ingredient kits in both all grain and extract.

 

Here are links to each of the kits:

How to Cork Beer (Corking Belgian Beer Bottles)

The following is a quick video on how to cork your home brewed beer. In this example, I was corking a Russian River Consecration Clone/Belgian Sour Ale.

 

 

To cork you beer, you will need the following items:

1) A beer bottle corker

2) Sanitized corkable beer bottles

3) Sanitized corks (Most corks come sanitized. Do not soak the corks unless the manufacturer recommends doing so.)

4) Cork hoods
