What are you drinking now?

Continuation on the hoppy path toward spring

My Munich Yunger Ale - 6.5% - Heady, toasty, malty with some Chocolate notes...

Premature for sure. Only in bottles a week.

Finishing these up to give me a excuse to head to the beer store in the morning.

Bam!

Orange pomegranate mead yum!

Saison and on and on again

Drinking water cause i just worked out.
Also unpacked trade from hessenhelles

My Graf. Not fully carbed yet, but tasty. Way better than the apfelwein at this point, which tasted brutal at 3 wks.

Going to brew up another couple gallons using WF apple juice, mainly to get the 1 gal carboys it comes in.

Puttin this mug in my mug...

Heavy seas siren noire, excellent beer. Imperial stout with chocolate and aged in bourbon barrels.

Love that beer. I have a few in the fridge as well! Very smooth drinker. Could use more bourbon character though.

The bourbon is subtle but it works for me. This is thd first I've had it and it is a very smooth drinker. I need to get a few more while I can

I agree. You can drink many of these. Every time this hits the shelves around here it doesn't take long to empty them.

Today sucked. This week sucked so I'm starting the night with a bang. Currently sipping on this.

My week sucked too. So, I decided to not go in today. I hear they had a hell of a time with that washing down the sweet taste of a spontaneous 3 day weekend with my Saison, fermented at 100 degrees with rosemary and black pepper.

I'm not gonna lie, it's really good. If I put it in fancy bottles I could probably sell the stuff.

Vienna/Warrior SMaSH, yum! On glass 4 or 5. Go go Friday

Must of been something about this week. On to another delicious beer! Here's to next week being better! Cheers guys.

Having some Texas rare beers


First is the bourbon barrel baried hatchet. Only 250 cases available



Second is RU-55 by jester king. A sour red ale aka flanders red. Yummy. I'm toasty.

Very good IPA. Very floral and nicely hopped.

My IPA. This is an interesting beer, it has an entire pound each of honey malt and carapils, and even though it finished at 1.010 from 1.075 it has a sticky quality and crazy head. Delicious. My wife's narcissus bulbs are getting good exposure tonight.

Don't tell your wife you are exposing her bulbs on the internet, she won't be cool with that if she's anything like my wife. The ipa sounds awesome!

Just finished a bomber of my IIPA. Gotta kill the batch before the hops start fading.

Damm dude! If you weren't 2000 miles away I'd invite myself over. For the beer, not your wife's bulbs.

She's out of town anyway, we'd both be jonesing

Birdland brewing falcon...its "meh" for a stout to be honest

JW Black

Nice hoppy imperial red ... LoloMT7 - remind me of this the next time we trade

Citrusy hop aroma and taste. This is my kind of session beer. It makes me excited for Schlafly's Session IPA that they are going to can. I'll probably pick up another 6pk or two of this.

Old faithful, SNPA.

My Chinook Vienna SMaSH. Wish I could kick this damn bug so I could actually smell the thing.

Doing a side-by-side comparison of these two. The Yeti is much more intense. Extreme bitterness, dark fruit, sweet chocolate, coffee, hoppy. The Old Rasputin is much less intense. Coffee, chocolate, little to no hop flavor, but some hop aroma. It has a much cleaner taste to it (I assume because of the yeast and/or fermentation temp). Between the two I'm gonna have to pick the yeti as my favorite. When it comes to imperial stouts, the more intense the better. I still consider Oskar Blues Ten Fidy to be my favorite imperial stout still. I haven't found anything better yet.

^^ it's that extra buck at work
