    The [Horribly Unpopular] Soccer Thread

    Very happy to see Leicester take the title. Feels good to have followed them from their first season in the Premier League, seeing them at the bottom of the table last year and then this result. Also very much enjoying the great start my Philadelphia Union has had this season!

    What's in your fermenter(s)?

    Just a simple Hefeweizen in primary right now. Have a Raspberry Cream Ale on deck next for summer, and really want to try my hand at a Belgian Trippel now that I have an extra fermenter.

    Cider/Green Apple after primary

    What yeast did you use and what type of beer is it? I know the green apple smell can sometimes be a byproduct of the yeast. Is there a green apple flavor as well or just odor? Sounds like Acetaldehyde. Could be byproduct from the yeast or from underpitching, could be the batch is still too...

    What are you drinking now?

    My HB Block Party Amber Ale. First couple bottles I cracked open were alright, still a little green. These last few I gave another week+ to condition and now it tastes great

    You know you're a home brewer when?

    When your shift at work of manning a Psychiatric Observation Cell means you plan out a brewing schedule for the next 6+ months. I have the brew dates, bottling dates, and ready to drink dates for my next 6 or 7 batches planned out lol

    What are you drinking now?

    My first homebrew...Block Party Amber Ale. Only been 2 weeks in the bottle, so carbonation isn't ideal but I couldn't wait any longer lol. Definitely super pleased with my first go at this. Not my favorite style, but this tastes very good to me. Has me even more excited for my Dunkelweizen that...

    What I did for beer today

    Came home today to see my Dunkelweizen bubbling away in the fermenter. Bubbles galore overflowing from the airlock...so I got to put my homemade blowoff tube to use for the first time. My favorite part of this hobby is still to sit in my living room serenaded by the bubbling sounds of a good...

    Just finished my 2nd batch...Lessons Learned

    So I just finished my 2nd brew day, a Dunkelweizen. My first brew (an Amber Ale) has been in bottles for about a week and decided I wanted to get going with my next batch. Definitely learned a lot from my first time and the problems I had: -Tried to boil on my electric stove and couldn't...

    Turn is the German word for gymnastics. Turnen (v) = do gymnastics, Turner = gymnast.

    CO2 Production and Fermentation

    Amber Ale. I figured it was probably done, but wouldn't mind if it dropped just a tiny bit more. I think with my OG at 1.042 I'm sitting at just under 4% abv if I'm calculating correct. Was hoping to push it above 4. According to my recipe, my OG was exactly what it was supposed to be though...

    Old Chub. It's good.

    What are you drinking now?

    Cracked open that Wild Sour Lynnbrook Raspberry Berliner Weisse I bought last night. This was my first time trying a sour...honestly was a little hesitant after learning about what makes sour beer, but I gotta say this was really good. Definitely want to try some more.

    CO2 Production and Fermentation

    Sorry if this is something that was answered elsewhere, I tried looking around. I'm about 10 days into my first batch of homebrew fermenting and still see that there is CO2 being made from the fermentation process. It hasn't been actively bubbling for a while, but you can see the pressure in...

    Stopped at my favorite place and picked up these to be drank next in no particular order EDIT: Hope you can read sideways, can't figure out how to fix this lol

    The Best Craft Brewery in Each State?

    Victory is definitely good, but I'd rank PA right now (from what I've had) 1. Yards Brewing Company 2. Victory Brewing Company/Weyerbacher (tie) 4. Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company NCBC is very small, but I'm liking what they are doing. Was at their tasting room one night for a charity event...

    The [Horribly Unpopular] Soccer Thread

    Had a great time at the draft today...especially being a Philadelphia Union fan. There was a lot of confusion with taking Keegan Rosenberry at 3 over Brandon Vincent, but we have to put some trust in Earnie as this point. Although I did call taking 2 defenders with our top 2 picks (even if that...
