A friendly place for friends who drink

Hi!!

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

That HB saison sounds tasty!

Aroma is straight up raspberry, but flavor not what I want. Blend 2 will be over the top Raspberry, higher abv, and a bit sweeter.

 

[applescrap]

So racked and carbed that dunkel 20 minutes ago and am drinking it warm. It tastes like an oak aged RIS.

Impressive. That due to longer fermentation time? I don't lager.

After replacing ignition coil, distribution cap, rotor, wires, ignition switch...still no spark to plugs. I'm measuring 9-12V to it though. Learning everything I never wanted to know about a 93 Jeep ignition system. With coffee...got to get boxes to ship beer today also, more exciting!

Man those ignition problems can be brutal. I chased my Camry through every Avenue back to the ignition switch. Turns out just jiggling one wire in there was the problem. Car won't start based on the emergency brake wire.
Nah I was just BSing. You know my whole thing is what you put in the kettle is what comes out. You cant put in 10 pounds of 2row, half a pound of carafa 3, quarter pound of uk crystal 77, and one ounce of cascade hops and get an ipa. That being said it is really good. Really really clean and good. Very drinkable my wife loved it. No off flavors from fermenting warm with lager yeast. And for $16 or $0.30 a beer I can see myself keeping this around as a standard. Really was surprised at how good it was for its simplicity. Kind of a nice everyday session beer.

Mroning, Scrappalapplelopolous and scrapple's friends. [emoji238][emoji482]. Having a little morning shot (or 2) of scotch before heading out to a 4 yr old bday at some kind of jungle-gym place in about 30 mins (not driving...). My own 4 yr old's party was last weekend at our house, so at least I can chill and just watch him run around today. And tomorrow bottling up my first stout attempt. Cheerio
