Thanks for the kind words, it's my favorite HB so far. I used the RIS recipe from HBT:

https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=238807

I put two vanilla beans (split and cut into 2" pieces) along with 1.5oz med toast oak chips into a mason jar. Added enough Jameson to cover everything. That sat in the fridge for a month.

Then added that to empty secondary. Racked my RIS which was in primary for a month on top. Bottled two weeks later.

Awesome! I'd love to try yours once it's done. Good luck !

Holy chit. Remind me not to try drinking 3 home-brews and a Westmalle Triple on a largely empty stomach, hammered don't even cover it!

Home brew ESB #1

HB dry stout after cleaning my brew equipment. OG was only one point lower than expected so i'll take it!

Looks great!



Two months old. Just as delicious as it ever was.

Hydrometer sample of my Quad. There's a little bit of alcohol burn, but a few months in the bottle and this will be the shiz.

Oh, and another Apocalypse, Not.

Is that new?

Oddly enough, I feel Goose Island's distribution has dropped off in my area since the AB buyout, aside from Honker's Ale and 312.

Wifey brought me beers back from Chicago. Only one I told her to get was Ten Fidy. The rest were her selections and seem pretty solid. I'm drinking a storm king while I prep to bottle my PB Irish Stout.

That's a good wife right there. My wife won't buy me beer because she "doesn't want people to think she has a drinking problem". I really like Storm King, that and Dirt Wolf are Victory's finest imo.

Some more. Why not?

Well, made the trip to Austin. Finally able to post the pictures from JK.

Another sample of my momoco pale ale. Its dropped five points in the past week, post dry hop. I may need to dry hop again.

HB black IPA.

Drove down to NYC today and this brewery was the drop off location for NHC, so I stuck around for a bit to try their beer and ended up getting a half growler of Half Rack IPA. Really good stuff here. Tons of fruity, tropical notes. The bartender told me the brewer really likes to use southern hemisphere hops. If you're in the area, I recommend trying them out.

72 Imperial. Chocolate Cream Stout. the pic does it no justice. if I wore contacts, I would use this as contact solution.

Remmy' columbus and cascade* papaya bomb. Fkn awesome brew man. Aroma is great. Nice carb. All around great beer

HB RIS. It's either 10.76% or 12.27% if you use the alternate method on brewers friend. Brewed in July, bottled in December, still picking up quite a bit of Irish whiskey.

This, while cooking some Guinness Beef Stew.

First ghandi. Pretty good overall but still would rather have an abrasive and def heady. Cheers!!!!

This is absolutely awesome. Does taste a little thin, but you can't knock it since that's what they were going for. Great hop flavor.
