Great porter!

Burned through a sixer of those about a month ago. Gift from my daughter. I’m not a big porter or stout drinker, but that one from Anchor had me asking myself,”Why not?”

HM cider

Just tapped my Altbeir that’s 5.6%. Pretty good without any lagering. A touch too much roast character that brought it out of style. Will be where it needs to be in a month or so

Pretty tasty dunkel!

I just got home from a C of C holiday party, these were on the porch, couldn’t resist the urge to have one and unwind. Great beer @JAReeves! Thank you.

HB club stone beer lager hydro sample.

The recipe was out of Jamil's book, the smoked robust porter, or whatever the hell its called. Swapped all the smoked malt out for marris otter, then we split it three ways. One with S04, one with S05, and this one with S23. The guy doing the S04 left it warm on the yeast too long and developed a strong bandaid polyphenol. The S05 turned out fine, but had too much charcoal flavor. This is the lager and it turned out pretty good. Much less charcoal than the S05, but definitely noticeable.

Cleaning the palate after making some Thai food. Tomorrow's gonna be rough

Packy had a bunch of JackieO barleywines. Not bad. Leaning more towards a stout to me.

I forgot how much blowing snow sucks. Nice and sunny here in SW Florida.

Snow is okay. I’m young enough to be the snowblower if I need to be. Ice though. It rained down here for two and a half days straight but thankfully temps stayed around 35. Up north I think I was hearing 20-30inches.


I just need the new jackass neighbor to start moving his vehicle away from my driveway. I’m on a main road to the hospital so it’s plowed often and his keep is keeping my driveway full. He gets one more chance until I bury it. And his little electric blower will take more effort than mine.

Yeah, I kid about the snow. We’re in Florida (again) with daughter and her twins and SIL. We come down from Maryland several times a year. Our daughter-in-law texted from home today that school was called off due to icing conditions.

I’m sure my snowblower will get a workout after the holidays when we return. Got a few neighbors actually older than me who need an assist with their driveways, and my 2-stage 10hp tracked drive beast makes short work of the heavy lifting.

My FIL gifted us his old snowblower when he upgraded. It’s an absolute unit, I can’t believe how much snow I used to move with just a shovel.
Heavy snow brings out the best and worst in folks. There are the people that go out of their way to help everyone, and those that can’t be bothered to even shovel their own steps so the mailman doesn’t die, or won’t walk an extra ten feet to ensure driveways get plowed.

More on topic: having another voodoo ranger and cleaning up. I underestimated my new chiller (cuss scylla) and ended up hopstanding a bit cooler than normal. Whoops.

 

[Brooothru]

Really have learned to like VooDoo Ranger, but it’s taken me a while. I was a SUPER fan of the original Ranger when it first appeared, and was mighty miffed when NB replaced it with the VooDoo series. I take a hard pass on the hazies in the VooDoo line up, but the Ranger is a solid beer.
