Don't worry, good beer isn't for everybody.
I actually like that one. It's not one of my favorites, but I think it's pretty good.

I concur. Not bringing it with me as my only beer on a deserted island but I pick up a sixer every now and again. And the wife loves it. She was on a Leini's vanilla porter kick and I thought she should try Atwater.

I'm drinking nothing...at an 8 year old's birthday party...

Self-employed, but I subcontract quite a bit of work through a certain company. So, no real boss, but I am still accountable to somebody for that portion of my work. But I still set my own hours, what days I work and don't work, etc.

Funny how most people think self employed means take as much time off as you want. Tends to work out quite the opposite.

Wish I was self-employed so I could take as much time off as I want.

Grist brewers challenge.
Vegetable curry on the left, Italian meat pie on the right. Both are surprisingly good.

And how well do the flavors match the "meal"?

Durham Bulls, messy hotdog and Foothills Brewery Hoppyum...up next:Goose Island IPA and maybe some BBQ.

2 Jai Alais. Thanking the beer gods that it is Friday. Waiting for steaks to rest at room temp before I throw em on the grill. Purdy inch and a half ribeye too. Nice marbling. Mouth watering.

That is the challenge. Same saison base & then which brewer came closest to the flavor. The curry is pretty obviously a curry. The Italian may pie is more of an Italian sausage / fennel / anise flavor.
Vote by putting a ticket in a can. Then they will announce which brewer did which. I'm voting Italian, but that is minority right now.

Strawberry ginger kombucha.

Lawn is cut HB IPA is my reward:rockin:

My Weizenbock.

Time to get bombed!

Homer saison. Very tasty!

Good evening ladies and gents, took some HBT "maternity leave" to help settle in the new daughter. Back to the regularly scheduled program now. :rockin:

Drinking one from fuzzymittens to start the night.

Treated myself to one of these today as well.

Goose Island 312 Pale Ale...the keg kicked on the IPA on my pour. I got a taste though...pretty good. A salted in the shell peanuts...a baseball game imperative.

Ugh...2 hours into this kid birthday party and I'm doing nothing but taking mental inventory of what's in my beer fridge. The clock hasn't moved in about 30 minutes...

It is the Akorn from Chargriller. Bought it at Lowe's for 299.99. Been wanting a kamado style for a long time. I went in for some PVC and walked out with this instead.

I love kids, but I can't stand kid birthday parties unless they're my own kids' parties.

Have you had the Decadent Chocolate? It's pretty good too.

Yeah, I wish it was like that. The problem is, with no employees, if I don't work nothing gets done. My schedule can be pretty flexible at times, but when I have a lot going on, there's no slacking or taking a day off for no good reason.

Banesong's oatmeal Shakespeare stout.

Bad day beginning to end.

Victory double d... On cask

Cut the grass,trimmed, spread 15 bags of mulch, walked the dog.
A taste of my RIS, keg is light. FML.
Shower time!

Ok, if I were starting with dregs from a single champagne bottle of stout, and building up a starter, is a week long enough to do it ? Is an RIS a poor candidate for harvesting, due to the high ABV?

That's what I was scared of. Maybe I'll need to buy a 6 of Founders Porter or something. Was considering using time if the Boulevard bottles I have but thought the size if that beer might have the yeast pretty stressed.
