Just a follow up to my Flanders Red I posted a photo of a few weeks back.

9 day old pellicle on my Brown Eye Brown ale with ECY01

 

[BGBC]

Homemade Lacto starter pellicle after 24+ hours.

 

[Hopinista]

My latest Oud Bruin's been going 7 months and never really got a pellicle. Just a few big bubbles that last a while and turn a little opaque. I've done at least 15 sours and never had this happen. Not concerned just

Sour Blonde with ECY Bug County.

 

[BGBC]

Just thought this was a cool time lapse. Same Lacto starter, pics taken over the course of about 36 hours.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Beautiful! Guess I need to take pics of the beauties I have going. Plan to brew another sour weekend after next

Sour with blackberries just shy of one year. The second one is a three month old sour pitched on the older ones yeast cake after seven months.

Pellicle on my Flemish Red with Grapes at 19 months after brewing. Started 3 gallons of a Westvleteren 12 clone diluted by half and pitched with stepped up dregs from and Oude Kriek and WLP530. 6 lbs of concord grapes added at 1 month and left for 6 months then transferred off grapes and dregs and left. Bottled today. Pellicle and liquor.

Was planning a couple days of souring and a boil but can't get myself to do it now. 11days...

Checked in on my gose after a week (pitched the Lacto starter shown previously).

 

[ICWiener]

100% brett sour blonde ale. Fermented with Brett B, C, L, lacto, pedio, and some dregs. It's at about 17 months right now. I never open this freezer because it's my "sour tank" and makeshift beer cellar...I opened it last week to get something special to drink on my birthday and the sun was shining in through the garage windows. It struck the carboy just right. I figured I'd better get a picture or two.

 

[badlee]

That is the point at which homebrewing becomes art

 

[barrooze]

It's beckoning you to drink it! Great pictures!

 

[mgudmastad]

Farmhouse/funky/sour beer - everything but the kitchen sink. Belgian sour mix, additional brett, lots of different dregs, bourbon soaked oak chips.

 

[Rivenin]

6 month old lambic - striaght wyeast lambic blend

Is that a tiny wine glass, or do you have giant hands? :cross:

ps. It sounds absolutely delicious! Any tasting notes?

ps. It sounds absolutely delicious! Any tasting notes?

From memory at bottling:
Appearance: see pictures
Aroma: sour with hints of fruit, not clearly grape
Taste: Strong but not sharp acidity, bright fruit, minimal maltiness but noticeable Brett complexity, finishes with slight bitterness and a hint of astringency which has been decreasing with time.
I'm imagining when it gets some bubbles I'm gonna love it.

I think that is all for now. Will report back later.

As for size (which apparently matters), it is a tiny glass.

Building up some dregs.

 

[Billy-Klubb]

my all brett.

 

[Hopinista]

my all brett.

Looks like Braille. You sample it yet? I've never done 100% brett, I'm too addicted to lacto

not since that pellicle formed. but it was tasting quite good a month or more ago.

 

[TrickyDick]

First sour brew. KBS split batch in half. This half got roeselare blend. Racked onto dregs from almanac dog patch, cascade, and prairie.
HUGE amount of trub!! About 5-6 INCHES!

Just pitched new pedio into my lambic-style sour yesterday.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Just took this. It's my 100% Brett rye white ipa which I'm about to dry hop and bottle

Pic next post

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Pic will help

Just found the thread and love it. I got 25 different pics for my background. I thought I would add to it. I have 3 sours all in secondaries and all from re-pitching again and again onto the same Roeselare microbes.... I am not getting great pellicles in my secondaries, but with the winter and me losing heat I think they suffered.

My 6 month old pseudo-lambic with a variety of dregs from a sour party. The flash makes it look white, but it is more powdery and almost translucent. pH is at 3.38 but I heard it takes a dip while pedio is making the beer sick. Tastes very good, nicely sour.

My 5 month old with dregs from sour party 2. Second generation Roeselare yeast. Not as sour as the 1st generation, but it has 1 month less after commerical dregs were added. The pH is a little higher at 3.92.

My 4 month old with just RR Temptation dregs. Third generation Roeselare... This just left primary because I needed it for an all Brett C IPA. So I haven't had time to taste it or take a pH reading.

Some nice brett strains built up for my wifes brew this weekend. An all Brett Black IPA using Pilsner as the base malt. Gotta love a wife that loves funky beers and brewing them

Bottling this tasty pterodactyl tonight!

 

[badlee]

How is it that the more disgusting they look to "normal people", the more beauty they exude for us?

 

[MarshmallowBlue]

Mr. Orange, that's like damn cheese! Awesome

 

[milldoggy]

Unintended stout sour.

 

[pegasus_brew]

Belgian Blonde with what I believe to be a Brett Pelicle. I got a little careless and used this bucket for a Brett Saison the batch prior to this one. Not what I was hoping for out of the blonde, but it's tasting pretty damn good. I racked a gallon off onto some ECY Bug County for the hell of it.
