Fellowship of the Homebrew II: May the Malt be With You

[TwistedGray]

Well, what's the plan folks? I leave the country in four weeks, and I would like to make sure I have ample time to get a package out to someone. Just checking

 

[imasickboy]

You guys have a new timeframe? I'll do whatever.

 

[fourfarthing]

I should be mostly bottled in two weeks so maybe we do picks around then? At this small, as long as we communicate well we really don’t need to go overly formal on the pick day.

 

[JDXX1971]

Sounds good to me. I am going to keg my latest batch this weekend so it should be ready to go by then too.

 

[TwistedGray]

Pick on 30th?

 

[imasickboy]

Pick on 30th?

@TwistedGray
@JDXX1971
@fourfarthing
@Thorrak
@jerbrew

Can we make this happen? Offers in sometime before the 30th? (I'll post up your previously submitted ones, unless you submit a new one.) Can we get offers from all six of us?

 

[fourfarthing]

I can do the 30th from 3-6 ish. May ship a bit late to get my offer set.

Sounds like a plan. I'm in the same boat as @fourfarthing for this round as I may be a bit late in shipping given that my final beer is currently in the fermenter, but I will try to get it out ASAP following the close of the round.

 

[TwistedGray]

I am ready to box up

 

[jerbrew]

I only have 2 to offer, 3 if I wait for my cider to finish and carb in the next weekish. My other offer got consumed before I could bottle any. Stupid friends.

 

[TwistedGray]

Two of my offerings for this round

 

[TBC]

Alright boys, I’ll get in this if you’ll have me. Just finished my 12 beers of Xmas commitment and am ready to participate again. Let me know. I can send
in my offer anytime.

Yes. I will send it in 5-6pm tomorrow after I look at my notes for descriptions

Fellowship of the Drink - FotH II: May the Malt be With You

-------------------------------------------------------------------
All Offers This Round:

Active Participants with Offers:

imasickboy


imasickboy's offer:
-English Brown Ale 3.7% - One of my favorites to have on hand. I brew this 6+ times a year.
-Foreign Extra Stout 6.5% - Scaled down version of the one from Brewing Classic Styles. First time using Nottingham in my 10+ years of brewing. Caught of guard by its' voracious appetite. A bit more alcohol presence than desired, as a result. Still good, though.
-Fantasy Draft 2017 5% Homebrew club does a thing where you have to draft ingredients, and make a beer from them. I was sick on draft night and missed it, so I picked up the best remaining ingredients the next day. 6 row, caravienne, sorachi ace, cluster, S04, blueberries, maple syrup, bananas, and chocolate bars. This beer is not at all as terrible as it sounds.
-Homemade Sauerkraut - Cabbage, salt, caraway seed. Save the juice for your own sauerkraut starter, or use it in a beer.

Currant berry cider. This was made with Martinellis Apple Juice and Our home grown currants. Fermented with Nottingham. 11%ish

Straight Martinelli's Apple juice fermented with WLP775. This was bottled straight out of the fermenter so not cabonated. We have some in the keg (almost gone) all carbbed up I was going to bottle a few so you may get both. 7.5%ish

Fruitcake Old Ale 9+% & Fruitcake Cider I cant find my notes on this one.

Cyser, this was an experiment kinda gone wrong, it actually woks out pretty well in the end.
