so, once i started talking about homebrewing, my friends all were making requests for what i should brew, as well as begging for bottles to try.
so, this week, 3 months after starting this hobby, i sent a couple bottles home with two coworkers.
i'm pretty pleased with the results of my porter - in fact, i picked up a 6 pack of New Belgium's 1554, which tastes nearly identical. (made me proud!)
anyway. i should keep in mind these guys are BMC drinkers (and are all infatuated with the new Bud Light Platinum)... but... i was not prepared for this text...
"keeping in mind it's an early brew of yours, it was pretty rough..."
ouch.
anyone else experience this?
i've been really impressed with it myself, it's malty, hoppy, has an almost roasty quality to it. black as the ace of spades, but clear when you shine a light thru it. decent head, good carb, leaves nice lacing on the glass...
makes me nervous about sharing... (oh well more for me!)
