What are you drinking now?

You on my PSN? MicroBrewed here

 

I got it at the store on Sunday at kroger when I checked it in on untapped it showed a lable with ping pong paddles.

HB white stout

 

Interesting. One of my all time faves.

 

It's a good beer. Pretty under rated IMO

 

Damn! You think they might go year round with it? One more reason for a SLO trip!

Morning Blokes, going to be a good day

 

Now that's brewing weather...

 

Prost

 

Waky waky. French press

 

Good idea. Kegging an ipa tomorrow hate to waste $15 in yeast...

Hanahapu cloneish, about 11%. Flavors all added in secondary Substituted coconut for vanilla bean since I forgot to take a 401K loan out. Definitely will be served on Hanahapu Day March 9th. Net 3gallons for $60 or so...I'll take that!

 

That emptiness of finding and killing your White Whale... For years I dreamed of trying Kate the Great. It was around before craft brew had really exploded. Like 20 years ago during college I tried to get my buddies to camp out in Portsmouth NH for it in March. Turns out it would be 20° and raining. Numerous times I'd find it's variant "on tap" only to be told the keg was empty. This year I finally caught it. Now I need a new White Whale

 

How bow da

 

5pm somewhere

HB Coffee Stout

 

Brewed up a batch of simply juice pale ale from homebrewsupply and have been absolutely crushing it. Already bought another kit to do it again. Its so good!

 

Old Thumpa at Bahka Bah at Sunday Rivha kihd

And it’s dumpin’ snow on top of the 14 they got the other day. Epic East Coast skiing today.

 

First time at Sloop. Had their juice bomb before but excited to try the rest. I dig the barn location

 

Some point where one says Fakk it, HB NEIPAs are not my thing. Just kegged.

 

Sooooooo......don’t send you those NEIPAS from FotD ??!!!!!!!

 

Gotta take a quick break. Snow is piling up. Big bumps out there compared to the fast cords this morning.

Orono’s Tubular NEIPA at Sliders out west in Jordan Bowl.

Jordan is the only “out west” ski talk tolerated here at SR

No one cares how you do it out west

 

Let's clarify...no more HB NEIPAs. Hell yeah send those cans of liquid goodness!

 

So, was it great? I’m still drinking coffee.

 

U can send them 2 me

 

I would say very good. I kind of knew I was going to be expecting too much. I wasn't disappointed it's just the recipe is over 20 years old for a 10.5% RIS and so many brews have gone to the extreme.

He now changes the recipe every year and this one was aged in tequila and gin barrels. I even had a special edition where the keg had an additional tequila shots. That was gooood.

Its similar to how people say they're bored with Pliny. That it was a flagship and now others have taken the style to a higher level. To me, I'd slap those people that say Pliny, Westy or Heady are old (well Westy is old). All #1 in my book. This RIS I wouldn't put at that level tho. Hmm now I'm trying to think of an old original RIS that I'd name as a flagship beer for that style.....

 

2x two hearted

 

Wiffle Ball Wizard. A little sweet and sour but still a pilsner

 

Having a brew with the wife, mine is Raspberry Mochi, wife's is the French Kiss.

 

Having another Raspberry Mochi, and a Sun Glitter.

 

Weekend train beer. @LoneTreeFarms @brantrepair @SailorJerry , look what NY got!

 

Wife got me chocolate for VD. Forgot how great this is!

Dinner might be late tonight...just past stall zone.

 

Yeah but the NYC area only. Not upstate NY though.

 

Crushing this beauty from @pshankstar and a little surprise from @PianoMan.

 

Highwater Campfire Stout at The Hop Grenade in FoCo. Delicious but i can't get the taste out of my mouth from the Curmudgeons Better Half sample I tried!
