Would you consider this even if I had back sweetened it? @Chalkyt

I kept a bottle of the cherry cider and I tasted it at this year's thanksgiving with some family and friends. I put it up against other things in a blind. It aged so interestingly but well. It tasted like a slightly less tart lindermans framboise. Had cherry and all sorts of berry flavours. Not...

My mead is about 1.5 years old at this point. I have around 15 bottles. Gonna try one every two years. Problem I had is mine was on the lower end of the abv so I'm not confident with it holding. We will see.

Would that only work for high abv liquors not stouts though? I could see devil's cut but not angels share.

Firstly Merry Christmas one and all. Secondly, I've inherited a Weller whiskey barrel that has just come from the distillery and hasn't been used for anything else. I would love to make a barrel aged stout but my question is does the barrel need to be filled with stout or can I fill it one...

Gonna try mine which I put in the cellar from last year this Halloween.

I'm looking at a new beer, got any go to recipes for me?

Mine is all done. Taking it on a road trip but I'm happy with how it turned out. My is kinda cloudy but the taste is on point.

Awesome colour man. Looks great and glad you enjoyed it!

Mine is nearly finished. Should be good to go in the next couple of days. Looking at 4.3 abv

My looks a little darker. Probably the lime oil. I'll have to check tonight

I did not use the salts etc. I use El Dorado water in Colorado and I have always got excellent results with this for all my beers so I don't need to change it.

I peel the limes with a potato peeler and left them in a container with a cup of sugar. The sugar draws the juices and oils out. On first boil I just threw them in my hop basket and left them there. It's now stopped fermenting so I'm going to switch to a secondary soon. I will keep you updated.
