Went to bevmo today and that place is the greatest place on earth. I only came home with a 6 pack and a 22oz

That is true restraint. Wait till you find a Bottle Barn ;)
 
Green tea for now. Yesterday evening was very frustrating (found out we got audited on our state taxes, power went out for 2 hrs., dog is sick, etc.) and I had to drown my sorrows.

I'll tell you what I WON'T be drinking... My left hand milk stout clone. I brewed this over the winter, and it got way too cold and stalled out hard. I had thought that I got it restarted and attributed a higher than normal FG to the lactose and high mash temp. Bottled it, and the couple that I opened were spewing. Now that it's gotten warmer they have started to vigorously referment in the bottles, so I've been trying to bleed CO2 off the caps. Opened one for the wife for a baked bean recipe, and realized right away that I was sitting on a box of bombs, and probably didn't have more than a few days before I lived up to my namesake. I've never had a bomb before, to clarify, and I'm not about to be mopping stout off the walls. Anyway, RIP my LHMS clone :( not one to accept defeat, I will be rebrewing this in a few weeks.

Gotta finish cleaning stuff up for another brew day tomorrow. Fermenter soak is done,rinsed,& sanitized. Gotta rinse out the hop sack soakers in a minute. do some more bottles too. Then I got half a fifth of vodka,2 latitude 48's,1 Hopped & Confused,& one twilight Delight left to drink after that in the fridge. Time to reload fridge methinks?...
*by the way,if that bucket was clean,I d soak & cook some black beans in that nectar man!!
 
Billy klubbs zythos IPA. Damn good beer my friend. Do you plan on brewing this one again? If so, you should bottle more than a 6 pack ;)

That really sucks!! While it's not a clone, I'll be bottling my milk chocolate stout. I hope this doesn't happen to me. The FG is a bit high, so I hope it's the lactose.

Good call! (Btw, nice pink bucket bottlebomber!)

I should have cleaned the bucket better. It's actually a flexible pail, super strong, Trugs I think they're called. They are super handy and this was the only color in this size and I'm not threatened by it ;) anyway I usually dump my mashtun into this and the grain sometimes sits for a few days before the chickens get it so it smells like vomit. I can fill some growlers off of it if someone wants some. Zippers, this was like 1.030 when I bottled.

Hoppy saison.

Would it be wrong to let my wife keep napping even though she needs to get up so we can go to a wedding I don't want to go to? Weddings would be better with drinking before/during the ceremony instead of just at the reception.

'Ahhh, what a miserably hot day for a wedding in a pavilion. Thank heavens I have this refreshing and inebriating gin & tonic!' Sounds so much nicer.....

Yeah, I did. Her only friend from her last job is getting married, so I figured I better.

I used to have a beautiful flask. Held a 5th, couldn't see it in my hip pocket. I eventually realized I'm a bad drunk on the liqour and intentionally lost it playing poker.
