Haha! It's all good! In a sick sort of way, I was actually pretty impressed with the ability of that furnace to melt the sh!te out of those drums! It was at 2100F when we shut it down. It could've gone up to 2500F before our over temp controller would've shut it down. Draws a total if 1560 Amps at full load! It's a gas hog!
Decided on another Yuengling. Starting to feel tired and wouldn't enjoy the Dragon's milk if I opened it now. Gotta bottle my vanilla porter and cider soon. Maybe this weekend.

holy **** that thing get hot! i just got done bottling up some blue white and RED ale that i brewed on the 4th
yes it was and I enjoy the floccin' hell out of it! with my grain bill it produced slight pine with a lot of musky tropical fruit. Mosaic & Nelson are 2 of my favorites right now, but as a home brewer that can change quickly. still a big fan of Citra & Simcoe for my APAs & IPAs as well. aggressive might be in my nature.:rockin:
New Belgium Pumpkick. Here come the pumpkins... Not bad for what it is: a 6% pumpkin ale with a twist of cran/lemongrass. Has some floral/zesty/citrus tangy almost hoppy kind of finish. Not my kind of pumpkin but decent/good, mild with spice and rounded showing everything brewed in it. Almost reminds me of Smuttys pumpkin- which is a bit hoppier for a pumpkin but I liked it last year and like it alot more than this.. Glad I only have one pumpkick though,would drink it again. Now on to a small sample of a new mead.

Pretty good.
beer trades are wicked awesome. I have some awesome stouts, Resin, and 3 Beans to attest to that. not only that, but some great home brews from colleagues across the country:rockin:.

That's cool. I had a mosaic single hop from Voodoo and I got no tropical notes at all. It was all piney flavors. Maybe some tropical nose, but that was it. I still dug the hell out of it, but I'm not sure I'm going to use it that often in my brews.
Btw, that pic reminds me of one of the Tremor brothers from Smokin Aces, which I thought was an awesome freakin movie!

Awesome, indeed. But costly. I've done about 8-10 so far and have a few more to ship next week.
I've shipped a **** load of NEBCO (Gandhi Bot and 668) as well as Sixpoints to several peeps.
Gotta stop!

Was doing some mixing and as I was checking the web out for a second I saw this thread and thought I would break open the beers the rep from Elysian dropped off the other day.

It feels like I am sending GB out at least every other trade. The non-CT folk can't seem to get enough of it.
way I understand is Mosaic changes flavor & aroma profile with grain bill, yeast profile, and fermentation conditions.
and as for the pic, "we are 138"
Today, my ESB, my Jalapeno Smoked Porter, and now my Oatmeal Stout.

Third shift. I got sick of Blue Moon, so I decided to have something different. I'm ready to get back home (still tons of stuff to do).
Must be nice to live near a brewery with beer that everybody wants. Philly gets probably the best collection of craft beer on the East Coast moving through it, but nothing people can't get in other parts of the country. No local brewery is all that good other than Tired Hands which doesn't bottle. I need to move back to San Diego...
we need a hoppy spike in the vein.
die die die my darling

I talked to a guy that brews Gandhi. Told me most of the hops are added in the last 10 minutes of the 90-minute boil as well as at flameout.
Wouldn't disclose the type, though. They had growler fills of Gandhi today and will have tomorrow, just in case anyone is thirsty.

I just finished up a hoppy session ale dry hopped with Simcoe, Cascade, and orange zest. It also included 11% acid malt. I'm very pleased with how it came out, but am curious to swap out the pale malt for vienna to add body and double the acid malt to see if I can get any tartness. Went well with my pad thai.
You've Troegs. I can't get that here, but there is a place that's about 3.5 hour round trip from me that has it. I don't ever get up there unless I'm visiting my in-laws and even then not every time. I imagine there's quite a bit of there stuff that doesn't even get, though.

I e-mailed the brewer and he told me what hops to use, but I was sworn to secrecy, so....

This one is pretty interesting. The aroma and first sip are awesome with a nice and dry body with a slight hint of the sour and funkiness but it doesn't linger at all. Definitely going to be grabbing another bottle to let it sit a little longer but this is still fantastic as is
That's true, and for some reason people lose their minds when nugget nectar releases. I guess I don't have to think the beer is great to trade it, right?

I'll give away an allagash secret for that one. You first nuke.
My funky dubbel. And some first year centennial side chutes.
Gandhi Bot is one of the few mysterious hoppy beers to me...I've had almost every other IPA that everybody wants to try. I'm flying back home on Sunday to visit for 2 weeks, and I'll be hitting Alpine at least a couple times while I'm there. Maybe somebody on here wants to trade some NEBCO beers for some Alpine beers (if you've never had Alpine Nelson you owe it to yourself to get your hands on some).

Smutty makes some excellent beer, but I've got to say, was uninspired by their ipa.
