Oh man, I'm so happy you're finally able to admit this. Really, that whole stick swinging thing has gone on long enough.
Oh.....you weren't talking about that hobby were you...
Nevermind

I might brew a session IPA this weekend, despite hating that name. Is Simcoe, Amarillo, and Nelson a strange and/or disgusting combo? How much Nelson is too much? For whirlpool and dry hop additions I'm think of a Simcoe:Amarillo:Nelson ratio of 2:2:1.

I dont see why not. Instead of session IPA you can just say Pale ale... or IPA light (or lite). I think modern times use nelson in some of their IPAs
 
I just received 2oz of nelson to experiment with since I have never brewed with them before. What would be the best beer or method to use those in?

Saison, hop stand
Then buy more for dry hopping.

2 oz? Lol... flush them down the toilet?

BK made an all nelson pale that was pretty nice... much fruitier than most of the descriptions would lead you to believe.
 
The whole family got sick for Xmas. We even got the Grandparents in on the fun!

Drinking coffee, studying for a stupid state licensing exam tomorrow. If I pass, I have 1 more for a promotion. If I don't, nothing happens. Really lacking motivation. Especially since I'm looking for a new job.

We had the same thing....

started with the 2yo on xmas eve and got us all including grandparents and aunts by new years.

HOHOHOHO

Yeah, I'll get over the name thing as long as it tastes good.

Eh, what the hell. I've got everything to make it. I may as well give it a shot.

saison was my first thought. wanted to ask the "experienced" though.

I felt like an idiot once I got all these other pounds and half pounds of hops and then only ordered 2oz on those. I was already at $70 of hops though.

First rule of beer trading: Fedex is always late on delivery day.

Second rule: drain pour all SADjockey's clown beer.

Small batch SMASH, use saison yeast if you want.

Used some Nelson as a late addition in a Session IPA that turned out well. Earlier additions of Falconers and Centennial, Chinook for bittering.
 
Mashing away, having a community mosaic...still need to eat something. Something nice about taking off and morning drinking/brewing! Stay warm, folks!
