    What are you drinking now?

    Looks sooooo good ! Alot of people despise Old Fezzi but when it came out so many moons ago , it was my introduction to Christmas beer. And though I've had many different brands since then, I'll always love and have a soft spot for Old Fezzi ! 🍻

    What I did for beer today

    I just turned the all the way off, bled the air off, turned the pressure down to zero, bled the keg , turned the CO2 back on at 8 psi and an hour or so later it was pouring perfectly

    What I did for beer today

    Ok so now there's 2 people who I know in Michigan who drink it 🤣😂. Most of the guys I grew up with... a century ago...drank bud man in a can. I was a Strohs and Moosehead kind of teen myself. Then at 19 in the Army in Germany discovered the real world of German and other European beers. Have not...

    Other than my 1st cousin I've never seen anyone here in S.E Michigan drink Busch. It's ALL he drinks. I did however enjoy Busch Copper lager for the short amount of time it was in production.

    What I did for beer today

    Checked on the carbonation of the honey Brown. Only been carbonating for 2 days at 20 psi but I guess I should have turned it down to 10 after 1 day. Micro stone really carbed it up. A little too much foam even with the perlick flow control. Darn tasty though.

    This is roughly what I've settled on. But if I'm gonna try sugar cookie...don't know yet , ... I would just take away the sweet orange peel and ginger and add in the vanilla, almond and butter emulsion extract..?? . The yeast is WB-06 to impart a natural clove taste. I've never had success with...

    What I did for beer today

    What size batch and how much extract did you use ? I was thinking an ounce of each for 5 gallon batch...vanilla, almond and butter emulsion. I'm too chicken though 🤣 ! Only enough time for 1 batch before Xmas so I'm leaning on being safe and going with the normal spices. Please post how it taste...

    What I did for beer today

    Wow that's great! I had planned on a sugar cookie white ale too but wasn't quite sure how to go about flavoring it. Not alot online. I thought about sugar cookie extract from Amazon or a combination of vanilla, almond, and butter emulsion extract with cinnamon and nutmeg and a bit of lactose to...

    What I did for beer today

    Cleaned the 3 gal keg out line just to be sure even though I cleaned both kegs 3 weeks ago. Glad I did cause for some reason had what looked like tiny black mold flecks 😵‍💫. Don't know why I used beer line cleaner and starsan last time I cleaned. So did it again. Put these new filters on the...

    What I did for beer today

    Went to a this new to me LHBS I didn't know existed. About 15 miles from the house but only 3 miles from where the wife works so kinda works out. Picked up the fixings for my spiced White Christmas Ale and a few other goodies for after New Years brews plus some dark dry malt extract for hot...

    What I did for beer today

    It didn't rain Hell Fire on you ?? When I put my kegerator from the garage into the basement entertainment room 2 years ago, same reason, to keep lines from freezing...like any normal sane brewer would do...I got hit by the wife with a preemptive nuclear strike. It wasn't pretty. It's still here...

    What I did for beer today

    Needed a pick me up after the kick in the stomach of having my LHBS close plus the 1st day of snow 😵‍💫.. So went to Total Wine and more and what do you know ? My fave goto ale during my 3 trips to England, Fullers London Pride ! And Sam Smith Winter Welcome. So a ray of sunshine in an otherwise...

    What I did for beer today

    Today is a sad sad day in the Walker World of home brewing...went to my fave LHBS to gather my Christmas Ale fixings... which to me is hands down by far the best LHBS in these parts of S.E Michigan. Sign on the door said closed permanently 🙄😵‍💫😟🤢😱😵!!!! I'm devastated!!!! I did post about 4...
