Funny things you've overheard about beer

[cyanmonkey]

quite aware how true it is, agree with everything you've said

oh, and funny overheard about beer: some idiot in this thread called it "Goose Island Bourbon County BREAKFAST Stout"

Well, I'm sure he won't be dumb enough to show his face 'round here, again.

I read once where anyone who's ever drank water has died or is slowly dying.

Marriage is the #1 cause of divorce

Tonight, I heard a few people say a ShockTop beer is pretty good.

I find that funny.

I can't touch any more of those since trying the honey bourbon whatever flavor. It smelled like a candle...like someone actually threw a bunch of beeswax in the fermenter.

My aunt tasted my Vandal Eyes PA this Thanksgiving and described in detail how it reminded her of the taste you get in your mouth after you have vomited recently.

In other news, everyone else, even non-IPA or hoppy beer lovers, have really enjoyed it.

Me: I'm going to bottle the red beer tomorrow morning so the closet will be free.
SWMBO: so, can I serve any tonight to the guests?
Me: No, no you cannot.

The appropriate response should have been "Do they like flat beer?"

Did... did I just get trolled? I sincerely hope that wasn't real.

On Saturday I brewed a clone of this beer so I was looking for information on in. Happened to come across this video. Could not believe what I was hearing.

I got to "caramelized hop" and hit close. Goodness.

As a nashvillian, I'm double disappointed. By both the review and yazoo. Though, thier limited releases can be quite good and gerst is my go to lawn work beer, if it's fresh. But I don't doubt that was anything but genuine ignorance.

I've heard it's the shizz to caramelize all of your hops before they go into the boil.

How else are you going to get the brown color in your IPA without caramelizing your hops?! Classic noob mistake there...

Duh. Caramelize your yeast before you add it to the boil. Classic noob oversight there.

 

[cyanmonkey]

I caramelize my kettle before I brew. It saves a lot of time so I don't have caramelize my hops or yeast.

 

[Psylocide]

Maybe they were referring to dry caramelizing?

I dump Werther's originals directly into the FV around the end of primary fermentation. I find they hold together better than soft caramels and don't plug up my autosiphon.

I like using Kraft royals myself...:rockin:

 

[Billy-Klubb]

I dip my berries in caramel.



we are taking about dipping berries into things, right? maybe I'm confused...

 

[Elkobrewer]

The I only drink light beer because it has less calories people. All I can say is Are You Fu~~in with me.

I usually dry berry my caramel hopped beers. That's how I get high ABV.

 

[beernbourbon]

Well, actually, I dip my berries in the yogurt fruit dip, then swirl them around in my lambic sour stout, and finalize the fermentation in the kettle that I had previously caramelized with my blackberry honey that I used in my JAOM

 

[GuldTuborg]

Well, actually, nothing can have less calories. Calories are calories. Nothing better or worse about any of them.

If I'm ever in Cincinnati and find myself talking to a home brewer I will not be able to think of anything but his berries in his brew bucket..... No, thanks anyway, but I really don't want to try your beer, I once read this thing on the interwebs....

It's a thing here now. It'll be the next 'sour'

Isn't that actually what kettle caramelization is in a scotch ale?
😉

No, that's scotch whiskey, you idiot.
