At the beer store that's closest to me it's a $50 gift pack with two glasses. I was at the brew pub yesterday and the regular was $11.

There are still a few around town here as well. $50 is tough for me to pull the trigger on, even with the Spiegelau BA glasses.

Transferring from kettle to primary. Time for some vandal eyes. Don't know how that can call it a pale ale at 7% ???

Sounds like my kind of pale ale! I'm not big on tons of IBUs, but love lots and lots of late hops, and a nice malt backbone to go with that. So I call mine Imperial Pale Ales. Though my last one was typical abv for a pale ale because of entering it into a competition, and I didn't want to lie. You know, just in case I happen to win somehow.

CCB is showing $25 bottles of Sugar Plum in 750's, thinking it must be BA. Sugar Plum was $12 in bombers this year. The only thing they put in 750's anymore is Huna and BA beers. Not even sure what a BA Sugar Plum would even be like.

Had a little leftover after my last brew (a pale ale for the FIL), so I randomly decided to pour a little of my wife's kombucha in there. I don't have it completely open, but no airlock on it either. It's big flip top jar with the lid closed, but the rubber gasket isn't on. It seems to have grown a krausen, not necessarily looking like a mother. Should be interesting.

It looks more ominous with the flash on.

Have had that happen waaay to many times to be worth counting. I say she didn't even try.

Yeah, happens at least once or twice a week. She knows that if she doesn't roll me off the couch, I'm not waking up, so anything short of that is just not trying. [emoji482]

Hrm.... Good idea. Will do so with the next pale beer. RIS + kombucha might be a bit weird.

Heh. For me, a light touch on the shoulder will do it. Really not trying.

Now doing this. Beer is being consumed. Orange whip, no pic.

Thanks all who helped my week! Picture catch-up.

Nice to see you're getting your life back! Is that a home roasting machine? Care to divulge any details and opinions on it?

Awesome beer fresh, a real turd-burglar after 4-6 weeks old

 

[iijakii]

Just bought a pound ea of centennial, mosaic, chinook. Should be enough for an IPA or two.

Thanks. Hope next week will be better, but not holding my breath.

Yup. FreshRoast SR500. Awesome fluid bed roaster. Only does 6oz/ batch if you rush it - I stick to a 4oz roast. The Sweet Maria's board has a good community. Not too big, and not horridly expensive. Do note, if you roast by eye, it is better to do so by daylight.

Moar orange whip!

What's that work out to by volume? My popper does 1/2c max (and I've never weighed it)

Yurg?

I think it is less, but have been a weight person for a while.

Remind me tomorrow - I can weigh done more green beans and compare.

Wow... 6yo found an oldie.

One of the reasons I went with the Behmor, I can roast indoors, trying to see what was going on at dusk or later was hard and I'm roasting 1/2 lb batches.

OK, I need to meditate over here for a bit, some Adam Henry has me going pretty good right now, and I am not being a very friendly friend.

*breathes deeply* Ohhhmmmmmmm...

Beautiful night. Grilling some ham steaks for sandwiches for the kids bday next week.

Chicken tonight.

This is good, quite a bit more complex than those Japanese macro rice lagers.

It's actually pretty funny.

*EDIT* Seems someone is humping the notify button me, as at least two of my posts are gone. I defined "horrific" for the OP and asked if not getting his special way actually terrified him & caused enough dread for his hair to stand on end.

Oh man...
