TwistedGray can have my group 2 stout if he still wants it... I know he wanted to do that, and I did it in 2018 and don't mind passing the reins. I'll do the Fruitcake Old Ale instead if that's cool with everyone

I am by no means an expert but in the "instructions for packing" thread from 2012, they are not using nearly enough bubble wrap. Also for 3 beers you need a box at least 12x10x5 or so, because you need some space between the bottles and the box to absorb the shock.

He came not to give... but to take...

Saffron triple please. West ... If there's a group two id really prefer to do the stout but it's all good either way

You could brew a sour or start a solara... but that would not require very much hops at all, or maybe just use them to bitter and double or triple the amount for a desired IBU contribution. Personally I would just throw them away for anything but sours

I had some Bells dregs that took several days... they don't all take off right away...

Anyone have direct comparisons? I want to use a single yeast for: Belgian Tripel Imperial Stout "Black Tuesday" inspired ultra high abv 19-20% stout (with WLP099 finishing)

All seasons??!! I love it. Spring could have earthy flavors, summer could be lagers, helles, etc. BTW I am interested in doing this again for 2019... this was really fun to do this year and I would definitely do it again

I did this in 2016... it was a fun idea but unfortunately all the beers sort of tasted the same to me. I ended up using them to marinade brats to bbq through the year.

Cool thanks guys. Not gonna brew for a few months. Appreciate it!

I'm wanting to brew a Black Tuesday inspired very high abv stout. Black Tuesday is 19-20%abv and that is what I'm shooting for. I want to use coconut and cacao... any tips on them? How do you sanitize them for use if added to secondary? Thanks for any tips!

I shipped everything out today and tracking #s sent. End of week for west coast and early next week for east coasters. Thanks guys!

Loving these!!! I'll be shipping mine out on the 12th, sorry for the brief delay but I have a super busy week. Thanks guys these are awesome.

Just to let everyone know in Group 2 I will be shipping first or more likely the 2nd week of December. Sorry if that is a bit late but you will definitely have them by Christmas. Cheers!

Address sent, thanks for organizing.

Heck yeah I'm sure it's gonna be awesome! I won't be shipping mine till late Nov so another 2 months to age (almost). When and how are are supposed to share the address info? My first time doing this...

Okay group 2! Your Spiced Bourbon Stout is done! I'm calling it Krampus: He Knows When You Are Sleeping, He Knows You've Not Been Nice It sat in a 5gal Bourbon Barrel for 4 months so it is definitely a "bourbon stout". I'm not a huge spice fan but I added the spices anyway (that's the whole...

did you carb it when at room temp or when at keezer temps? If you unplugged the co2 when you put it in the keezer it wouldn't really be carbed at all...

cheap bastard

I just had the Vermont IPA from PINTA brewery. I thought it was awesome to see a NEIPA coming out of Poland. Is there a big craft beer scene there?
