Having a real man's can
Sampling my sour that's been going for almost 6 months now. Still needs quite a bit more sourness and the FG needs to come down at least to < 1.010. Right now it is sitting at about 1.012. Tastes good, though. No discernible off flavors, just too much body and not enough sour.
Having my last G'Knight then switching to some Evil Twin I picked up today.
I asked yesterday but no one answered. What do you pay for Evil Twin bombers and six packs. I saw some yesterday all the bombers were at least $18 the four and sixes too. Wasnt sure if this shop was just gouging cause no one else has it
I paid $12 for a sixer of the hipster ale, worth that but I wouldnt pay $18

What kind of bugs do you have in there? I thought if you had Brett or lacto you needed to get it down to 1.0000 or risk bottle bombs.
Drinking Mhurst111's rye saison. If I didnt know better, id think it was a commercial brew. Outstanding job man!
This is the sort of beer that leads to staying up too late, opening beers I shouldn't.

We build up our cellars for this very reason, right?!
I used WLP665 which has a mix of brett, lacto, pedio and sacch. I also added the dregs of a bottle of Lolita which, IIRC is brett only.

Tomorrows theday Im prone to pulling from the cellar:beer:
You need to put some more interesting dregs in there. I'm sure La Roja would help it out. I've been adding to my 665 beers. Was planning on opening a La Roja and RU-55 at least tomorrow, but my wife has a major cold and I dont want to drink those without her.
You've been planning for a while. What all is on the agenda?
Tomorrow is the end of bourbon season for me. I'm resolving to only buy beer and bourbon in Kentucky during 2014 and save all that money for the brewery. Might hafta grab a few bottles tomorrow while I still can. There are two more bottles of Xyauyu I can get for half price...
A few friends over, I wouldnt really call it a bottle share. I do know coming with them is some older JP stuff amongst other good ones. Ill plan on breaking out your Saison Brett, '11 Kuhnhenn Winter Wonder, '11 JP Noel de Calabaza, '12 JP Noel, (3) '09 DeDolle Oerbier, '11 and '12 Walldorff Cobain BBA (Woodford Reserve) Black DIPA, '11 Orval ( all for me), '11 New Holland Blue Sunday and I guess just see how it progresses from there.
Sounds nice. If you're not using all those JP dregs, put some in a jar and send 'em to Nuke.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Trouble is I can't find beer with those interesting dregs to which you refer. La Roja is unavailable in my area and I'm always checking my bottle shops for sours with live dregs, but alas I am coming up empty handed. Might have to resort to ordering beer online.
Now on to the Evil Twin I spoke of earlier. This is my first time with Evil Twin and I must say I am not disappointed. It's not spectacular, but it's quite drinkable and tasty.
