That recipe is almost identical to a Mexican lager that I brewed earlier this year.

My first thought after seeing the title of this thread was Mr. Simpson after his stint in prison. 🤣

Favorite cheap beer, and I mean cheaper than Budweiser, is Miller High Life. Worst was Carling Black Label. Granted I haven't had it in 25 years so my tastes may have changed since then.

Thanks!

Here’s my Yuengling clone from last fall. My mash efficiency was lower than expected due to using a new HBS mill with a wider gap than I was used to. The IBUs were a bit high at 16 and the foam stability and lacing was MUCH better than on the real thing. A bit maltier too, but I actually liked...

My first attempt at a Mexican lager.

I brewed a Mexican lager last night.

Same here except I buy fresh roasted coffee. We were ordering more coffee online the other day and reading through the different taste descriptions and I said, "Does it really matter? They're all just going to taste like coffee to me anyway." 🤣 I think a lot of this is just marketing. I would...

I drink mine. I actually do a combination of refractometer and hydrometer. I take refractometer readings for OG and the first FG sample. Then I take another FG refractometer reading two days later to make sure it's the same as before and then I take a hydrometer reading to get more concrete...

Got a Czech Dark Lager fermenting now. Should be ready to drink just before Christmas.

I brewed a Kolsch earlier this year with K-97 with great results. I cold crashed for two days, fined with gelatin and it was pretty clear in less than a week of cold conditioning in the keg.

I dry hop at yeast pitch all the time. Seems to work well and I get great hop flavor and aroma. This has been tried side by side at Brulosophy several times and never had a significant difference between dry hopping later...

That will probably make a fine beer. I don't know if it would be a proper Dunkel though. You should read the above comments about including Munich malts and especially the comments about the use of crystal malts. Also look at these guidelines - https://www.bjcp.org/style/2015/8/8A/munich-dunkel/.

I made a Honey Kolsch type beer that I had been planning for over a year. I got it kegged and served a couple beers from it. It was one of the best beers I have made. I was using a new picnic tap that I got from Amazon. I had used it once before without problems. I poured a Honey Kolsch one day...

I made a low alcohol, low calorie & low carb version of a Witbier that I named Half-Wit.

I brewed a Brown Porter yesterday. I’ve never used brown malt before. I was surprised how much it smelled like coffee.

I like to go to one of the specialty beverage stores around where I live that sells beer by the bottle. You can put together your own 6 pack etc. Then I just buy one of several types of beers that I want to try. Then if I don't like it, I only have one to choke down. My only concern is that...

I had to do a double take on this title. Thankfully we’re just talking about beer line connectors. 🤣

I just used Verdant in a West Coast Session IPA - Pale Ale malt with Vienna, Munich, C-20, El Dorado & Mosaic hops. I got 81% AA - 4.5% ABV. I tapped it last night for the first time & loved it. Nice tropical fruit notes.

It looks like the Kegco mini regulator that I have was made for the 5/8” UNF cartridges. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B079F5Z4N6?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
