TBD. I mean TBC

It's a cool, gloomy day in Ames, IA. The Cyclones are playing at Baylor...and it looks like it's raining pretty good there. That's a convenient excuse for Iowa State fans as they're blaming a slippery ball for Baylor being ahead 21-0 in the first quarter. Could be a long day for Cyclones fans :-). So today we're brewery hopping with our friends Dave and Susie starting at Torrent Brewing Company in Ames. Torrent is in an older warehouse style building in downtown Ames, opened in February 2015.

For our flight we chose their blonde ale, DIPA, pumpkin ale and the octoberfest. All were very good!  Terri had a pint of the blonde and I had a pint of the pumpkin. The guy running the bar was actually the brewer, so we got to visit about the brewing and specifically the pumpkin. He used 60lbs of total pumpkin (less what was lost to peeing and carving) in the mash and then just added a small amount of spice in the boil. Always fun to talk to the brewer :-)

Score update 28-0 Baylor. Another beer please!! Lol!
