New brew day on the roof here at the Eataly NYC Birreria. Teo, Leo , and I perused the Eataly store aisles this morning. An ingredient-inspiration walk about.

An orange blossom honey to make love to the ugli fruit and a eucalyptus honey to make love to the Ginger. We will carmalize the Ginger and the ugli fruit and add them at the end of boil. We will add the honey right after the boil in the whirlpool.
