It could be that sauergut, and its lacto component is the source for the grape flavor, especially where those german grains come into play. But I have NOT been using German grains, nor sauergut, nor lager yeast in my ales So by my poor calculations that MIGHT mean that NONE of those particular...

I can understand if this were exclusively a lager question. But as i said earlier in this thread, I have experienced this on and off in both an ordinary Bitter, and an APA. Neither of which have lager yeast believe me! They also did not include sauergut, and did not ferment in the church of...

Guaranteed THAT stick has beer magic in it!!!

What the hey, I'll play!

They tasted EXACTLY like ambrosia nectar, delivered to the glass on gossamer like bubbles, scented with the vapors from the gates of heaven, ALL lightly seasoned with the sweet tears of baby Jesus. They inspired a nervonic ecstasy that bordered on earth moving, and they largely solved the...

My stick is 3/4"x3/4"x3'. It is scrap maple that was in my shop, and it was free! I filled my pot in 1/2 gallon increment and marked my stick accordingly all the way from bottom to top. It is not too precise, and I am sure that sometimes I end up with 6.515 gallons of wort pre-boil, and...

I agree completely with the white grape and the loving it! Thing is I DO get it sporadically in my beers, and frustratingly I cannot isolate exactly why or what, nor can I repeat it at will The two beers I have experienced it in the most are an ordinary bitter, and an American Pale Ale, which...

38 years ago, I made a stick with marks to match gallons in my pot. When I bought my newest pot a few years ago, I made a new stick for it. Sticks work good, and EVERYONE KNOWS, that the magic that makes good beer comes from the sacred stick. This goes back thousands of years and is...

B-E-E-R.

In!

ANY sludge beers - AKA - NEIPA, And this disgusting creation called "bean Flicker" I just tried! Supposed to be a blonde ale with a hint of coffee - It smelled, tasted, and repelled like someone poured a cup of homemade hot cocoa into a glass of beer. Grossest thing I ever tried - INCLUDING durian

Jolly pumpkin - Oro. With a slab of crusty free form bread right from the dutch oven, with a couple of thick slices of a white cheddar I have been nursing since last march, and finally HAD to cut into. Hobbit Supper - or close enough for me.

Don't care if this is political - or inappropriate; God bless and god speed Mr Aaron, my baseball hero!

I find this difficult to understand- there is more involved than an actively fermenting juice. Drinking actively fermenting/live ferment beverages is pretty common and has been for about as long as the species has been upright! Unpasteurized fresh cider is certainly fermenting to a degree almost...

Yes. SO-4.

Hmmm. What I DO know, is that at my local gas supplies (both of them are well known brand names used by many here) the O2, and CO2, are filled from ONE BULK TANK EACH. I have stood there waiting for my truck to be loaded while they filled the empties I just brought it. They fill bulk CO2 for...

I do a bitter with MO, Northdown, and Notty all the time - That is a Smash I guess.

I could really care less who owns it as long as it tastes good and it is available. A really great beer does me NO GOOD, if I have to drive 900 miles to buy one. Elitism comes in all sizes it seems -big and small. I don't care much for it in any package.

Yes please- enter me too!

First let me say that I really don't give a damn WHAT method you chose, as long as you enjoy yourself, make beer you like, and are happy. As a brewer who has made beers for 35 years, and has brewed with 3 vessel, BIAB, All-in-one, HERMS, and recently lost ALL of my equipment to fire and thus...
