Easy. I've brewed a bunch of English beers. I have one going now.
Ask nukebrewer about my ESB.
Does it rhyme with "Blondie Dot Cone"???

Switching to a scotch with a few cubes of ice. May have about 3 more.

Because who doesn't want more cowbell?
What, no dose of TCA?
Single worst thing I've ever tasted in beer (via a similar off flavor kit). It's that corked wine thing. Like licking the floor of a damp basement. NASTY.
Drinking Bluebird Bitter and prepping for interview (he asked me to bring a few of my recipes among other stuff). Which is confirmed for tomorrow evening instead of Thursday. Combo of being super f***ing stoked and super f***ing nervous.
A friend called and said the Sam Adams imperial white clone i brewed had something bad at the bottom. He wasn't sure about drinking it so I chilled one and there was a good 2" of yeast. I should have cold crashed I suppose. So this 11% *****. Getting better as it ages.

If you haven't tried this, you'll thank me:
Ice cubes have always been a no-no for me. I used to do the tiny splash of cold water via the tip of a straw or whatever. Then someone on HBT introduced me to filling the glass with warm water, dumping, and then pouring. A few droplets of warm get left behind and everything blossoms. I do it now, every glass, every time.
Raise your gose with a reg gose plus shrimp and crab

Real men don't drink scotch with ice or water.
Drinking a water. Don't judge me.
Just did it. Wow, you're right. And thank you!
Says the man drinking strawberry beer most of the day. Baazinga.
I drank it because I couldn't taste it!
Don't make me pull out the highland park 18. Hold the ice.
I read that as you were having a shrimp and crab flavored Gose and threw up a little & made a mental note not to trade with DC anymore...then I looked at the photo and it made sense....
Like you need someone to make you.

This is decent, a little too fruity for my taste, but drinkable on a hot day

I go neat with good scotch....That said if a real man goes no water or ice and a lesser man cuts it with water or ice, what is one drinking water that is calling out those drinking scotch considered? 😁
Wow just wow the generosity and thoughtfulness of this thread will never cease to amaze me, i came home to a box full of beer from jak1010. After reading the letter enclosed in the box i was floored. Jak1010 was chosen by Mhurst111 for the best response for a funny story and sent him some beer... When jak1010 wanted to send mhurst111 back some beer he told jak1010 to send the package to me instead, due to my current situation. Wow the thoughtfulness of you 2 in this gesture goes way beyond the beer, and man are they some good beers. Thank you for thinking of me and I'm glad i have friends like you in my life, i honestly have no words, just amazing.
Ps... The package was actually delivered to my sisters house accidentally and she called over to our house and asked "who the hell is cliff Mongoloid?" It was funny explaining it to my family as they all looked at like wth haha

I've recently moved from what I consider the mecca of brewing (Athens, GA). In Athens I had my pick of 2 - 3 brew shops and any number of experts to rely on for advice, all of which were eager to help. Where I live now only has one shop and the owner treats me like a complete moron and never shuts up about how he won't drink anything that isn't barleywine anymore. Admittedly, I am a novice, only having brewed about 30 gallons of beer so far. But when I walk into an establishment I don't like being patronized and told that I should just stick with the pre-made kits. (Yes, he tells me this every time.)
So since I hate going to the local shop, is there hope for me? Is there anywhere online that can get fresh ingredients to me quickly?

Eh, I wasn't a big fan.
Another apfelwein then done
I need to pick up more of these. Amazing!
It's a great Gueuze. Drinking water and then going to bed.
