Congrats! :mug:

I'm drinking a lot of water after getting trashed at the beer festival and then afterward. :eek: so many delicious beers though.


Did Nizzel's tits come out good? Anyone know?

TNGabe's Life of the Mind #1. Excellent job, Gabe. I'm really enjoying this. Other than rhubarb, lacto and brett, you didn't give any other info.
 
Well, the first one didn't make me feel worse so I can only occlude that more will be better! :D

And if you like Indian, this is an awesome snack especially since it has a special pack for extra freshness. So much better than regular pack for staleness. ;)

Ohh where did you get that?

Thanks! B2 is drinking very nicely right now.

B1 Is about 42% pils, 42% wheat malt, 8% oats, 8% carapils with 1/3oz citra at 30 and about 1 1/2 oz sorachi spread out between 10 & 0. Pitched wyeast lacto and 3942 (which is isolated from De Dolle for anyone who cares). Started around 1.054 and racked onto 6 lbs of rhubarb and added cantillon brett 2 from BKY at 1.010. Left it on the rhubarb around 10 weeks, transferred to 'tertiary' and dry hopped with 1/2 oz Mosaic for a week. Primed around 3 vol thinking brett might drop it a little.

B2 i took a different approach. Similar grist, but I used carabelge instead of carapils and raw wheat instead of malt. I used raw becasue I had it, next time I'll use flaked. Fermented with 3726 and used 3.5 lbs rhubarb in the kettle at 10 minutes. Used 2 ozs whole sterling at 60 and that was it for kettle hops. This batch finished at 1.001, dropping the last 3 points while dry hopping with oz Citra and 1/2 oz ea Sorachi and Motueka. Added the lacto and brett at bottling. Might have to put one in the fridge. I've had a bottle a day the last two days and it's really good. I'd believe it was from Anchorage if I didn't know better. :D

More Berliner here. Looks just like the last one, though oddly smells of victory. ;)

Great job, I'm looking forward to trying B2. It is currently in the cabinet, along with your Saison-Brett, I'm going to give those a couple of months.

Right now, I'm enjoying your Galaxy White IPA. Another home run!

Thanks! Hopefully the brett preserves the hop aroma in B2 better than B1.

Gah, ten gallons to bottle, yeast to pack, yeast to put on stirplates, carboys to clean, etc etc and after 5 miles of hills, my butt seems to have velcro cause I am stuck to this couch!
 
Back on the Skeeter for now. This hot as hell Miguel Cabrera salsa has me pounding it a little faster than I probably should be

having a great oatmeal stout after a tough brew day. It was windy as hell and my propane/time took a big hit because of it.

Would you say it was better or worse than being in a close game with an absentee owner with 2 starters not playing?
 
Just put 3 gallons of yeast on the shaker table. Screw stir plates.

Drinking a Baxter ipa because I have the lab to myself.

Pictures please. Then I might get nasty with yeast porn because I have the house to myself. :D
 
That's what she said. :D

I think there is so much batch variance there isn't a definite age to shoot for. 2012s I have need some time. The probably 2009s are money. Might toast Pierre Thomas with one when I get home.

Distributed by B United so pretty easy to find. Not a big seller so lots of older bottles out there. If you find older stille nacht I'll buy any you don't.

If you don't find any de Dolle, I'll add to the false bottom box. Looks like I'll need that for 55 gallon drum so when I get details I can send you money for the sheet.

Done!
