What are you drinking now?

TNGabe said:

Dang! If I can power through two batches I'm pretty happy with myself. That sounds like a long day.

Saison thirty here. I think I'm going to make at least a grand of some creepy WWII memoribilia today, so I might hafta drink something fancy to celebrate.

The wife loves bottling, I bottled the farmhouse with the beergun while she bottled her Riesling, then we tag teamed the rest. The floor corker definitely speeds it up we have a good system.

And that's awesome!

Hahaha no silly I'm eating the perch

I assume you mean yellow perch? We've had white & yellow here in Lake Erie for a lotta years now. To be honest,the white just doesn't compare with the yellow perch. Even the white bass are so over fished commercially,we get little more than young'uns. We just can't get enough backing to ban commercial fishing in the lake. Waaay too many of'em out there stripping the lake of virtually all the adult fish. Pears are usless anymore,as you need at least a 20 footer (25..3 tuns of'em! lolz) & go out into the shipping lanes,which is about 10 miles minimum around here. Sucks,but the fish are so damn good they're worth it!
That plate really takes me back. McGarvey's on the east end of the lagoons in Vermillion.

Two parrots were sat on a perch, one says to the other "can you smell fish?"

Reminds me of the old 70's tee shirt that shows 2 buzzards on a tree branch. one says to the other "patience my a$$! I'm gunna kill somethin'"!

After thinking about it I think this is the only Saison I've ever had. Deeeelicious!!! If I hadn't heard so much about it on here I probably would have never tried it.

so who's had Boulevard's 2013 Saison-Brett? thought I saw some posts here about it, but y'all drink a lot and it fogs my memory. will this one benefit from aging?

I like mine nice and mercury laden. Now I hear the lakes are polluted with micro plastic pieces that are used in products like facial scrubs. Either way, I think I'm going to try to talk SWMBO out of chicken and into a fish fry! We got a ton of lake perch from Lake Erie and Pymatuning.

I haven't had it, but I've heard it improves with a couple years.

We had one about a month ago, and it was good. The Brett was pretty tame, and I got another to stash away for awhile.

I always wondered why the Black & Tans in the bars made me crave tartar sauce.

Did you do a clean primary and bottle with brett c? WLP 645? I've been thinking about doing a big beer with english ale yeast like that, but I've only used 645 for primary so I'm iffy about brewing a relatively expensive and time consuming beer.

Ahhhhh

I did a clean fermentation but put the Brett c in secondary. Beer is six months old - keeps getting better the longer it sits.

Mmmm...Dunkelweizen.

My hoppy saison. It's addicting. So glad I have another batch of saison going.

Wild Blue . Well it tastes just like any cheap fruit flavored pop from the grocery store . Not at like beer . If I was out to drink a blueberry flavored soda pop I would like this but not for beer time . Reminds me of grape soda pop.

More of my IPA.

Yep ... and now enjoying some Mr. Alien!

First time having a tallgrass.





Tasty.

I'm having an old Boulevard Brewing Co 80 acre Hoppy Wheat prototype beer. It's basically their Wheat beer that's been dry hopped. Very smooth, slightly grainy with an aroma of a IPA. Very nice.

Remmys wheat beer.

Pours a copper color, nice and hazy with a nice strong head,
Smells just like banana bread. The flavor is great, I'm picking up a lot of banana and a bit of bubblegum, the carbonation has a sharp bite to it helping cut the bubblegum flavor before it gets too intense. Overall another great refreshing beer from remmy
