What are you drinking now?

[Channel66]

Water at work. oh buy the way all you home brewers there is no way to get over 13% abv without distilling my boss's son just told me so bwahahaha.

I should send you one of my Belgian strong darks to give him. Put some hair on his chest.

 

[NIZZLE]

Ya he is a know it all I just want to punch him in the fooooking head oh did I mention he's not a brewer so to me it's even funnier :-D

A college plant biology teacher once told me you could not get over 13%. Not sure what the practical upper limit is. I read a book once that said with the correct yeast, right amount of sugar, right amount of water, and perfect fermentation it was theoretically possible to get 33.3% before the alcohol killed off all the yeast.

I'm playing Mario kart at work, jealous?

Drinking a red bull. I feel like a college freshman again.

Well Utopias have hit at least 27% so that's in the neighborhood. Nizzle - sounds like you should make a nice wager with the idiot

Stopped in to my lhbs, signed up for the customer loyalty program, ought to have my discount card filled up in less than a week. I spend too much money there.

Drinking a touch of citra pale.

Sometimes I just stop by my LHBS with beer because I haven't seen the owner in a while. With my schedule, I really need to let him know I could fill in once in a while for store credit....

Haha yeah I'm the same way, minus the willingness to fill in at the shop, I help customers when I'm there, but I'm usually drinking a beer and socializing anyway.

I got a text "haven't seen you in awhile, I've got some stuff for you to try, and we have a new loyalty program that you will be interested in, come spend some of that money of yours" he's also my local club president,

like I needed an excuse to spend more money there, I think my grain hops and yeast stores rival theirs.

I'm lucky enough to have a local maltster to buy my base grains from. Well, sort of local. I need to get down to Asheville and stock up. I've got enough pils for one batch of petite saison and that's it!

Drinking some dark hoppy saison after a 'The SchwartziswithyouBEEr' from Mark. Best of your homebrews I've tried so far.

Stopped raining so I guess I better haul trash. Take our trash and recycling to what's called a 'convenience center'. It's about 6 miles away, but not all that convenient. When I asked my wife's father about it, he told me they used to have to take trash to the dump which is closer to 20 miles away, hence the name.

I was quite happy with that one, thanks.

And another example of the fact that everything is relative

 

[itsme_timd]

In Tampa for business and my flight is delayed two hours. Fortunately my gate is right across from Cigar City Brewpub at the airport. I guess there are worse places to have a flight delay.

So... I'm drinking a variety of CCB beers!

 

[FermentNEthinG]

HB centennial blonde is always a good choice!

 

[Spraentart]

Ahh! Kelly Clarkson! First time with a Doppelbock. I really am digging this. Malty and delicious.

So jealous, you wouldn't be willing to trade one if you still have any/can get any would ya?

 

[FermentNEthinG]

Is that released at the brewery only or distributed?

 

[mcbaumannerb]

It was released at the brewery only two weeks ago and sold out within a couple of hours. I had my in-laws pick up a case and now I'm kicking myself for not having them get two (which was the limit.)

 

[Remmy]

I have one left and I'm sorry to say, I cannot part with it. I absolutely love this beer. Not just because mango is my favorite fruit and IPAs are my favorite beer.

On second thought...

Hahaha same here I've been planning a mango pale ale soon, I could probably part with some of those haha, can't blame you for not wanting to trade, I probably wouldn't either

Dammit! That is the news I didn't want to hear! I was going to dispatch my father in law down to the brewery and pick up a case. He is a health inspector for PA and travels down past there once a week...and it happens to be tomorrow.

 

[unionrdr]

Got 49 bottles out of my batch of Berlin Lemonweisse. Washing yeast now. Drank one of the last bottles of my light hybrid lager. Startin on a Maori IPA now. A little vodka to celebrate getting another sucessful bottling day in.

 

[FermentNEthinG]

Aw hell. Another homebrew!

 

[mcbaumannerb]

LoloMT's saison #2 ... very refreshing on a steamy evening while I grill!

That beer was amazing. I drank both of mine back to back and now i wish i would have saved the other

Saison on a stormy evening.

 

[allenH]

Sunkist 10 and Smirnoff, sweating my nards off while my 22 month old uses his sidewalk chalk. Kegorator is empty, I am kegging 15gal this weekend, and brewing 10 more (another 5gal saison and a 5gal, 28lb grain bill beast).

 

[Channel66]

Have I shared my citra pale ale recipe with any of you? It's missing off beersmith and I need to restock
