What are those silver cylindrical things in the background? I was a little disturbed till I zoomed in and realized they're not what they look like they are without zooming. Lol
As for the beer. I've heard good things about that one. I just wish it was available here.

The three grey things on the box of tea? Those are Mio bottles. The other black and metal deal is the coffee pot. I'm curious.... What did they look like before zooming?

Ah....mio bottles. I just couldn't figure out what those were. From now on I'll just look at the beer in pictures and not worry about the background.

Shhhh, we're not s'posed to talk about that here..... public forum dude. :cross:

SNPA ... Taps at this pub are too slow to change. Sigh...

Midas touch = yum

Young's Double Chocolate Stout. Has stronger coffee aroma and flavor - nice one.

My batch of White House Honey Porter!!! Not from a kit, just my all-grain adaptation of the recipe as they provided it.

Just popped the cork on Boulevard's Harvest Dance wheatwine.

Man this stuff is amazing.

About to hit the Macallan 18. Just one glass.

Did my civic duty, now I'm having some beer so I can forget that one of these two buffoons is going to (possibly continue) running this country.

I'm drinking some scotch, MacGavin Lowland. Strangely enough there isn't an age given, but it's got to be at least three years. I tried to find their website but couldn't find it.

A Belgian I made almost 6 months ago. Trying to decide whether to enter it as a Tripel, Saison, or Belgian Specialty (Strong Saison).

Meanwhile, watching the election & thinking, "Thank god only one of these guys can win."

How is that hop? I just heard about it tonight and was very intrigued, but wanted to get some user feedback before I pulled the trigger on buying some.

Just had to go with Clown Shoes / Three Heads "Third Party Candidate"

Having some celebration ale clone tonight

bitches brew

My FEZPA (fekkin' EZ pale ale)



One of the recipes I like to brew when I don't have time for an all grain day. Steep one lb light crystal (I used .5 c 10, .5 carapils), add .5 lb of dextrose, boil for 30 mins with 1.75 oz cascade at 30 and 4 ozs finishing hops (Yakima Valley goldings in this one) at knockout (whirlpool and steep for ~30 mins). 7.4 lbs LME added into whirlpool and steeped (6 lb Briess golden, 1.4 lb Alexander's pale). us-05. Dry hop with an oz of something (cascade).
Really simple brew day and it always nets a solid session beer. Really good with Simcoe/Amarillo for the knockout add.

Hydrometer sample of my Mild.

Election night beverage is this 60 schilling on nitro....mmmmmm. I also had a small drink of my homebrewed mild. Might go back to that if I'm still thirsty

Election night, Imperial Red Rye.

Just cracked open one of my favorite beers, Supplication! A rare treat that is an appropriate finish to a great and very cool Florida night. Cheers!!

Now see? Dammit.. I wish I could get that in cans instead of skunked bottles :/

This was actually sent to me in a trade...I can't find them around here, either.
It is FANTASTIC in these cans, whereas I pretty much hate drinking it out of the bottles. I don't know why every UK brewery thinks it's a good idea to export their beers in clear glass bottles.

I wrote Belhaven and they claim that it somehow is more ecological, saving some 20,000 tons of glass a year. I don't see how, they never got into that.

They could save even more glass if they just used cans...

Right? The most widely recycled material on earth, and as a bonus your beer doesn't taste like booty.

You can........ see what I did there? :cross:

No, really Bottle, PM me and we'll take care of your bottle (or can) envy.

I think that they think it's fancy... just like the German's and green bottles. Bellhaven used to bottle their Twisted Thistle IPA in brown, amazing. Switched to clear recently, arse.




Found a few goodies trying to hide in the kegerator. Weirdboy, I believe the Caldera came from you, thanks. It's a really nice IPA.


This is also a really nice IPA. I'm a sucker for the English style, so this one's right up my alley. Lots of American hops character, but the balance is perfect. Nice malt and fruit-y yeast flavors blend really well with floral/fruit-y hops. Awesome beer.

Since my wife is gluten intolerant, I had a Belgian gluten-free beer called Green's...horrible, horrible. Had to pour it down the drain bad!

Now that's what I'm talkin' about. Very awesome IPA courtesy of my new BFF, NordeastBrewer77.

That's an awesome IPA! I brewed a clone and its one of my favorites. I've never had the original, but if its as good as the clone I brewed, then it's a winner.

This beer tastes what I hope my American Red I brewed last weekend tastes like. Another excellent beer from NordeastBrewer77. The brewery is Lakefront if anyone wants to try and find it.
