Thoughts on the Enjoy By, I have one in my wine rack, guy at my store said he liked it better than the April version.

Having a Rogue Voodoo. Not super impressed, but it was buy one get one so not surprised.

Best $2 Cigar ever. Still drinking Cab.

Saint Somewhere Lectio Divina. It's a Dubbel fermented out with 565 and bottled with Brett. Odd beer when young, freaking fantastic once the Brett has taken over

Bout how long does that take? I've only had it at the "odd" stage haha

Drinking the original while my first attempt at a clone is mashing. Hit mash temp and mash pH, so far so good.

After a 20 hour shift yesterday and an 8 hour shift this morning, I'm finally having a beer... It's a good one

9-12 months IMO. If the cork doesn't hit the ceiling when you take the cage off, you opened it too soon. Seriously, keep your thumb on the cage or you will put your eye out. It would be nice if they dated their bottles, but anything you find in a brown bottle should be good to go right now.

I'm sure I'll need to tweak it, but this beer is nearly a SMaSH beer (~95% MO, ~5% crystal, and then all Challenger), and the color, IBUs, and ABV are all listed on the brewery's website, and the recipe I put together is all in line with the listed stats. Plus I cultured yeast from a bottle of it. So I should be pretty close.

Mmmmmm......Brett

Is there any reason to wait any time on this one?

All of his beers are "infected" with An active strain of Brett (mostly Brett B). I had that at Huna day, I believe he brewed that shortly before that. If you have been storing it at room/warm cellar temps, I would give it a go in a few months. An easy test is to take a turn off of the cage, the cork will start creeping out immediately. If it doesn't, shelf it for a little while longer.

My Nelson pale ale, watching Argentina - Bosnia. Putting off packing up my apartment.

Something to wash down my wife's pot roast.


It's all about the farts with my 9 year olds...

Surly Cynic while grilling

About to fire up the grill, having this

Watching 300. This is delicious.

Not too bad. Might be old, but I wouldn't know since there's no bottling date on it. I'd try it again if I knew it was fresh.

Thanks for the tip! Mark sent this to me last month and since then I've had it stored room temp. I wasn't sure if it had Brett in it or not since it doesn't say anywhere on the label. I'll probably wait a few months and then do the cage/cork thing to check it. Thanks again.

This! After coming home to a bottle bomb all over my kitchen! !! Had to throw about 10 OF my hazelnut coffee stouts out after trying to purge the bottles. Hopefully I can save the case I have left and cold crash them ;( damn the luck! ! Hope I didn't send ANY of them out to anyone. .. I need a new refractomoter!

Full day of fishing and park exploring. Now relaxing with this.

Pretty good session IPA. Right up there with the likes of All Day and Lil' Heaven.
