A Quick Peek at Traveling Circus Brewing!
Nomadic Brewery on Tour: Traveling Circus Brewing Company Takes Beer Production on the Road
Brew Crew: Brant N., Mike S., Dave C., Matt M.
Hometown: Charleston, SC
Equipment inventory: 15 Gallon Kettle, Mash Tun, HLT, and new CF15 Conical Unitank courtesy of Spike Brewing.
Brewing Experience: As a collective, we've been brewing together for around 6 months, but we each have a few years (1-3) of personal brewing under our belts.
Favorite Brews: We relish the joy of craft beer, and our tastes are versatile—from Czech Pilsners to American Pale Ales, Triple Belgians to Hazy IPAs, we don't limit our love for beer to a single style!
Drawn to Brewing: It all started one night with a taste test of some craft brews. Mike suggested we try homebrewing with a 5-gallon kit, and soon after, we were ready to dive in headfirst. With Spike Brewing, the brand's commitment to quality gear was just the perfect fit for our passion for craft beer. The adventure has been fantastic ever since.
Advice for the Novice Brewer:
- Embrace the process and practice temperature control. It's all part of the learning curve, and as long as you're patient, open to learning from others, willing to experiment, and enjoying the journey, you can brew terrific beer. Implement temperature control as soon as you can, and we're psyched to get our Spike Brewing conicals running!
How Spike Brewing Elevated Our Brew Days:
For us, it's about enjoying a consistent and hassle-free experience, thanks to well-crafted and user-friendly equipment. Spike Brewing equipment elevates our brew days by simplifying the process, providing pinpoint temperature control, and guaranteeing optimal results.
The Upgrade That Made the Difference:
Initially, we brewed with just a Spike Brewing kettle while on open flame. But when we added a Hot Liquor Tank to the mix, it transformed our brewing, eliminating temperature control issues and making our brew days more effective.
