Just cracked my first out of a 4 pack of the Topper that I got tonight.. $24.... Def. worth it. I will be harvesting the yeast for my next ipa (or 3). A belma / Citra / Amarillo / simcoe combo. Pretty excited about it.

Jealous. I should be getting some for myself very soon. Have you brewed with Belma before? I just ordered a pound 'cause at $5.25 and with the amazing sounding description I couldn't pass it up. Just trying to find out how well it does in practice.

Sounds good. I'll swing by the place I got it and see if they still have a bottle.

I grabbed this based on how many times Ive seen it mentioned here:

Solid IPA. I don't know if it was the Enjoy By I had last night affecting my judgement but I was a little underwhelmed. Tastes like a well done, resiny IPA. Maybe I'm over IPAs loaded with centennial. It has cascade and Citra as well but I get loads of centennial.

I am enjoying an Old Speckled Hen. It is good but better when it is hand pulled in England.

Having a home brewed Hefeweizen. It's good, but I find myself thinking it would be better as a wheat IPA with Simcoe, Citra, and autanum hops. Maybe next batch....

Tonight's winners are:

Wachusett Green Monsta



for being the only drinkable beer from the brewery I have tried.

Then, two bad beers and an OK Mayflower Porter... Then,



A nice witbier, and better than Allagash's, but ... I'm still dreaming of Unibroue's Blanche De Chambly, even of Cisco's Grey Lady which has a nice lazy/non-tart wit taste, and the one I made using a BYO/Jamil Blanche Oreiller recipe. This newbie brewers thinks good witbier isn't easy to find.


And finally, a photo I randomly found of the U.S. president drinking beer while searching for google images of women with low tops drinking german beers. (I was searching, not him).
