I was smoking a hoyo de monterrey 135th anniversary by gener jose . It had nice blooms on it from the age. Nice cigar. It is a nice start to the weekend and tomorrow taking the old man to a brewery

Happy Friday Night!!

Okay. So, I am gonna show the last two nights of our variety of beer...
I like to take pictures...
it makes the story more exciting!!

Okay, so Thursday night.... We had a Texas Beer.... A lot of Texas Beer.... Can you tell we are from Texas!?! :rockin:



in the mix of all of that... We also tried OUR FIRST BOCK BREW KIT that we brewed back at the beginning of June!! Now, look... it's only been bottled for 2 weeks & 1 day (at this point...) We wanted to test one out... but you definitely can't have one without having the other now, can you...







Tonight... we are trying a couple of new beers so that we can collect bottles for our next brew.... our Belgian Triple!!





CHEERS, EVERYONE!!

Started the night with some Leffe Brown and finishing off with Sierra Nevada Summer Lager Summerfest Lager.

Oops. Sorry about the double post.

Samuel Adams Latitude 48 IPA. This is the last of the store bought beer I'll be buying for awhile. My first 5 gallon batch will be ready next Friday and I have another 5 gallon batch of Velvet Rooster in Primary.

I still buy store beer for inspiration and brew planning. I like the simcoe version of deconstructed pretty well.

Homebrewed belgian white honey ale... goes down easy way too easy

How was the prickly pear?

Drinking a Vodoo Doughnut Bacon Maple Ale for breakfast! After eggs and toast, asked wife if she wanted a breakfast beer, and she replied positively. However, it looks like I'll be drinking the whole bottle, less the one sip she took.

I tried that for the first time the other day. Never again. But I guess if anything it'd be alright with breakfast.

Can't get it here, but have a box of prickly pear on the way, and will make some.

Gordon Biersch IPB, huge earthiness, garlic like aroma, fruity taste, and a big bitter kick. Just a sip on a break.

Brooklyn beer brown ale

Abita amber on tap at my house while my 10 month old watch baby Einstein and eat lunch.

Rogue makes it. I think it's kind of hard to find but I'm not 100% about that.

Old poet oatmeal stout from new holland brewery in good ole holland Michigan, since the boat is broken we are landlocked today so I also mixed up a 6 gallon batch of Riesling for the wife. I am also chomping at the bit to start bottling a batch of amber ale that is so close to being ready and the aroma is simply awesome

I see it intermittently at Total Wine. They had about 6 cases of it there yesterday.

It tastes like pancakes and bacon/sausage smothered in syrup. Alright at first, very sweet, but I thought the aftertaste was pretty nasty.

That, and it's a total palate wrecker. I had a few beers after having just a small taste of it, and everything still tasted like maple syrup.

Drinking my Amarillo/Centennial IPA while making starters for tomorrow's double header.

Currently on vacation, so my favorite beer will have to make room for the usual Heineken cans :S

Enjoying a pint if my Blackwell Stout w/ my bride!

Well shucks. Since I've just started brewing, I bought some pilsner urquell can't wait to know what I'm doing enough to make great beer like this.

right now sucking down some of my own Belgian Saison (fantasticly amazing)

In order so far tonight:
Frankenmuth Brewery Batch 69 IPA
Brooklyn Brewery East India Pale Ale
Anchor Brewing Anchor Steam
Homebrew IPA

Boscos brewing co bombay IPA

Gasoline

Bud lite. Now I remember how I got into brewing. Not a bad beer but pretty boring.

On my 3rd (and last) Ranger IPA while my Arrogant Bastard clone finishes fermenting. I don't care what anyone says but Ranger is a damn good beer. I'd clone it but it's so cheap, why bother?

Just got back from Woodstock NH so drinking Pigs Ear Brown

Dogfish ale house 75. Yum.

Monks Cafe

3 Flyods 219 at a fest. What a Saturday!

Hop Devil. YUM

How do you get it shipped to you? Just order a case of it & have it delivered to your house?
I want to make a beer with a hint of fruit flavoring but not too much so that it is over powering.. Ya know? You'll have to let me know when you brew that batch so that I can follow that thread!!
