Definitely, if I could find it. I've not ever seen it around here though. Looks like a crazy beer.

I just ordered a pound as well. You're right that at 5 bucks a pound, it's worth a shot. I'll probably try it in a pale ale as the only hop to get an idea of what it's like. I'm interested to hear from anyone who has used it as well. Orange, grapefruit, pineapple, strawberry and melon sounds...

I've actually never used them, only read about them. Do you think 1 oz at 5 minutes will be enough to get an orange marmalade character in the beer or should I up it some?

Samuel Adams Harvest Pumpkin Ale This one looks a bit different. Really nice dark mahogany color, bordering on ruby, with a creamy, tight head. Very attractive looking. First aroma I pulled out was a dry grainy kind of thing, but it turned into sweet brown sugar and strong spices almost...

Saranac Pumpkin Ale This beer poured a really nice deep orange/copper. It shines in the light like a new penny. Very little head, despite a vigorous pour. Aroma is slightly vegetal or compost heapy. Some spice coming through as well along with a lot of munich malt-type sweetness on the...

Great post, thanks for the link. I wish it was my job to travel the world in search of new beers to import!

I'm always of the opinion it is better to be completely honest and give positive feedback. Even now in my brewing career that I think my beers are consistently pretty good, I welcome any criticisms. It does nothing for me when people only compliment my beer, and I much prefer when someone...

Hmm, I don't think I payed that much, but I can't be certain. I wasn't crazy about it last year so here's to hoping this years is better! :mug:

Oh yeah, that would be a little too much. :D Thanks for the heads up, it's corrected now.

It's funny, that was something I've been thinking about. My original plan was to bitter to somewhere around 30-35 IBUs, but I upped it to 40 in order to balance the bitterness with the malt. I would like the beer to be on the malty side, so maybe I should tip the scales in its favor and aim...

Instead of doing a spiced ale for the cold months this year, I'm going to do something along the lines of the British Winter Warmers. Something caramelly and malty with a bit of an alcohol warmth. In brainstorming the flavors I'd like to achieve, things like buttered toast, toffee, and toasted...

I'll take a code! Thanks!

Was at my local bottle shop today and noticed that they had expanded their british beer selection. And among the additions was Timothy Taylor Landlord. Did you guys know this was being distributed in the US now? I had to have my British friends bring a bottle to the US the last time I had it...

I picked up 5 more pumpkin beers today! Finally got my hands on some Pumking bottles. I also discovered that my bottle shop has expanded their british beer selection so I'm enjoying a Timothy Taylor Landlord at the moment! I didn't realize it was being imported.

Glad it went so well! Please do report back. I'm very interested in hearing how that Scottish Ale is in this beer.

This is what drives me crazy when people start talking about GMOs. The people who have a problem with them don't know what the hell they are talking about. Scorpion venom doesn't have DNA. Scorpions have DNA. And the DNA in a scorpion's venom glands is the same DNA that's in his eyes and...

Hows the clove flavor coming?

GMO corn in the corn sugar? ****! Have you heard that beer has dihydrogen monoxide in it too? That stuff kills thousands of people in the US each year. Maybe don't drink beer, it's too dangerous.

A few comments: 1. Boiling the cider will set the pectin and your beer will be cloudy unless you add pectic enzyme. 2. Boiling cider will make it taste like cooked apples instead of fresh apples. 3. I'm not certain but it could be that cider yeast won't be able to ferment the longer...

Looks like a mild.
