What are you drinking now?

[Swarley88]

Couple more...

Douglas... how's that bad boy? Worth picking up?

 

[CHans3]

Finished brewing... And yet the wizard grows wiser still

 

[divrguy]

Man I forgot how damn good this Hop Rod Rye was!

 

[NordeastBrewer77]

Douglas... how's that bad boy? Worth picking up?

Definitely. Really solid CDA.

 

[NordeastBrewer77]

That sounds great. I'll keep looking.

Blackberry Berliner while bottling my farmhouse esb.



Anyone else have a wife who doesn't mind carboys on the kitchen counter?

Definitely do, Weyerbacher makes nice sours. And yeah, for the most part the wife's cool with gear in inconvenient places around the house.

My wife just laughs, then goes and pours a big glass of wine and walks away. She is actually super cool about the brewing stuff. Just started a batch of Apfelwine and it was stinking pretty bad. She actually didn't mind. The whole house smelled like Bigfoots d!ck!! Myabe she has met Bigfoot.....

Bwahahahahahaha! Yeah, mine's generally cool with it as long as they're not in her way directly. ATM, the largest fermenter in the living room is her shiraz. Mine are all tucked away nicely in a closet.

One last Firestone Union Jack. Damn good beer. Not sure why its about $10 for a sixer. I would rather have Lagunitas IPA for about 8 a sixer. But still a damn good IPA that Union Jack

Damn Lagunitas IPA is 10 here.

 

[SFGiantsFan925]

The thing that amazes me is how absurdly clear this beer is. And to have such an amazing hop nose and taste it's crazy. I would love to clone this.

 

[Swarley88]

Very, very cool pic man. The union jack comes in very "groovy" like.

Finishing off the 750 of Sour Black before turning in. Some really tasty stuff.

Thanks! I honestly think that might be my next brew. I have a Pliny clone that is awesome right now and about to Keg. Although I think the wife would want something else. Shes not a hophead like me.

You're a lucky man. You should be thankful for that.

Indeed. Nothing to screw up the night like a killer beer/2.

Or brewing some of the best IPA this side of Andromeda and knowing she has free access to the tap.

 

[xtian116]

More SUCKS. Man, I'm so over this stuff, but I'm going to have to take one for the team. I have 2 more six packs to get rid of.

You should also listen to the pod cast. Matt Burelson (hope I got his name right. I got s!*+ for memory). Is awesome to listen to talk about beer!

Edit: Matt Brendelson, sorry about that. It wont happen again

 

[ZeMadMonkey]

Always a good day when you got your smoker going and having a good beer. Tonight I enjoyed Bridgeport's Smooth Ryed and my latest brew, a Pliny The Elder clone. Life is Good!

 

[PaulSarge]

home brew red ipa (like evil twin but a touch sweeter)

 

[chuckstout]

HB Saison almost carbed up probably by the end of the weekend, faint aroma, just a touch of yeast character and malty yet clean, could definatly be drier, but ill take what I get

I just switched to Founders All Day IPA, because I DO have to get something done today. Not for a while, but still.

 

[akidd17]

Altamont brewing Hella Hoppy, last night, DIPA beautiful.

 

[xtian116]

I'd be willing to part with a few if you wanted to set something up. What else might you be interested in that I could look for here in So Cal?

 

[smonteton]

Pyramid Thunderhead Ipa,cheap and delicious

Nice. Did I see you say something about using commercial lacto? White labs is worthless, wyeast isn't much better.

Having some Berliner while my wort for a strong sour black ale boils.

Should I just go with the raw grain method next time?

My partner in crime and I are sampling this epic RIS.


Two Beers Brewing Switchback RIS

Depends on what you're after. Guessing you're brewing Saturday? I'd send you some blends to chose from, but I can't make it to FedEx to dorp off right now. If you don't end up with as much sour as you want, JP dregs are the way to go.

This is my GF...her nickname is Keg Kicker. She is the reason we need 4 taps.

Cool thanks for the tip, I will probably go with JP dregs just to be on the safe side.
