What are you drinking now?

[TwistedGray]

At this point I don't know who is making decisions, but I'm not paying!! This is a 10-year scotch, Smoky campfire and smooth... Chilled, of course

 

[TwistedGray]

And then I had the genius idea of getting too mini growlers of the Bramble Blast Blackberry sour to take home to California.

Initial plan, take them home...

Reality, drink them both at the hotel with coworker who is also on travel.

...Those other two beers, empty now... ughhhhh... ermahgod.

 

[RevKev]

Perhaps one should not drink a 750ml on their own?

HB Sorachi Ace Saison

Any recipe ?? ...

 

[j1laskey]

Any recipe ?? ...

Since the addition of our little one to our family it’s been hard to break out the 10 gallon kettle, heat that volume, and cool that volume....so this is a boil of about 4 gallons and then top off the remaining volume in the fermenter.

It’s basically Brooklyn’s Sorachi Ace from BYO, with some tweaks in hop additions and whirlpooling, since that’s what all the cool kids are doing.

At 4.8% it’s great for summer

Good times for sure...I try to eat and drink my salary cut every time I come to the DC office. I made a heck of a dent in it this trip

Sounds like you are sparring your children?

The 7yr old grandson starting to train at a UFC gym. Have to admit my nerves started firing until all the injured part spoke to me. Two of my boys did amature MMA octagon fights and I mostly did Kung Fu starting in 1989 until deciding to try MMA at 44. We all have serious injuries from the MMA training tho so no one's training anymore and I'm still paying for the surgeries...fun fun fun! Stick with the softer matrial arts as I know of too many people with surgeries from MMA training. Looks great on TV but a wrong twist here or there and you'll be in pain the rest of your life.

I found it too dry for my preference, but curious what you thought.

I've had a couple of these style ciders. They taste like Saisons to me. It was dry but didn't bother me. Sucked it all down! Thanks!


Coffee...

Also. @fourfarthing your porter was top notch, I was extremely excited to be able to try it!! View attachment 568479View attachment 568480

Just hit the shelves!

Quite good and incredibly sneaky at 12.2%! I think it will take some age quite nicely

General contractor just got loaded off some home brew. Imperial 9% stout, 3.5% Red, multiple 12% Cherry Quads and even a diacetyl sample. He's doing things right...restoring some industry faith. Fluchh..got to pick up granddaughter at 4pm at school..hummmm....

Only 1 pick tho..cherry quad...

 

[pshankstar]

First one from the FotD trade from @Boomer. This one seems more like a red ale than an IPA (malty) but still tasty, just surprised. Thanks bud!

 

[GnenieGone]

Flemish Red and brisket sandwich at The Slab before picking the kiddo.

Was too sober yesterday..duck that ****!!

Electric Jellyfish and a view.

Dude behind the counter said they were just talking about my quad I shared a few months back before I walked in..wow! Speechless!! General contractor was wide eyed about the HBs, wanted more...besides the 60K price tag on cloud nine.

 

[orionol73]

Damn I love this beer!

 

[pshankstar]

A solid DIPA from @Boomer! This one is to you @orionol73 for facilitating the latest FotD! Cheers bud!

 

[gwinn758]

I haven't been a big fan of the NEIPAs but this is awfully tasty. I'm glad I picked it up.

How old is your FIL? She was a heart throb..among other things.

 

[gwinn758]

It was my friend's FIL, I don't know. I remember her very well from the 80s, that's why I thought it was so cool when i found it in the box. I was only drinking Killian Brown and Guiness back in those days, had no idea what craft beer was.

[TheDudeLebowski]

Not a bad summer beer. Still has some hoppiness. Could see throwing a couple of these in the cooler for the non hop head inBev crowd and not being disappointed having the leftovers

 

[Scturo]

One more wont hurt,
