    Official 2008 GABF Denver Oct 9-11 thread

    You passed my office then, I am on that same street as Boulder Beer. There are better places in Boulder for beer. Avery for certain. Oskar Blues is close enough (Lyons) and their burgers are fantastic as well. Ribs are even better.

    Must tries at the GABF

    I've got a bottle of woodcut in my fridge, waiting for the right occasion to open a $25 bottle of beer... Lost Abbey was there last year. New Glarrus runs out of beer very fast, hit them first, as well as Dogfish Head. I had a couple beers from Bugge Brasserie last year, amazing trippel and...

    Avery's Kaiser Imperial Oktoberfest

    So good...can't wait to go to Avery this week for some GABF special releases. It is ultra malty, and balances the alcohol well.

    Another Brett question

    They may however (and I am purely basing this on 10+ years of molecular biology education and inferring things from a topic I don't really know much about) use some of the nutrients put off by the autolysed cells for reproduction, and metabolism (i.e. essential amino acids, lipids, etc). I have...

    Was there on saturday night....food is ok, beer selection is good, but not what I expected and waaaayyyyy overpriced. $8 for a 8oz pour of Dutchess de Borgone, or any other beer on tap. $8 for 12oz bottles, prices go up for bigger ones. Oh, my other major issue is that the Dutchess was the...

    how to get Apfelwein sweeter/less dry?

    I used 'wine conditioner' which is a blend of sorbate and sucrose when I kegged. I didn't really meausure, but came close to the reccomended usage amounts, and it came out just right. Whether it is fermentable, I don't know, the sorbates should kill off the yeast. I did one batch with...

    Saison

    it was 2# of cane sugar for a 10-gallon batch, IIRC OG was 1.079 or so, it is at 1.011 now. This was the 'import strength' Saison recipe from Jamil's style book. It is almost 9%, so I am definitely going to let this sit for 6 months or so before drinking.

    Saison

    How did your saison come out with that strain. I just transferred mine to secondary after 6 weeks in the primary (d'oh, got busy) and it smelled very strongly of bubble-gum and apple juice.

    Any method to actually determine ABV %...

    You can also use that hydrometer to get a reading after fermentation, and then calculate the % ABV using SG - FG *131 :confused:

    Fat tire cans?!

    Just to clear two things up, that have nothing to do with cans but irk me to no end. 1) The brewery is called New BELGIUM, not belgian. 2) The beer is called Fat Tire, and isn't their best offering by a long shot. When they start canning 1554, re-release Biere de Mars, and make the Kriek...
