I would take her out for a nice seafood dinner. And probably call her again


If I can interest you in some Loons, you know where to find me.

Taco Tuesday?

Taco Tuesday?

Nein. I had a quick Subway sammich. Had to hurry back to work.

You coming up this weekend?

You coming up this weekend?

Doesn't look like it. I'd have to hitch a ride, and so far the only one that I usually carpool with is fully-loaded.

Does anyone know what the base beer for atrial batch 1 was?

Pretty sure it's Das Uberkind for every fruited sour except Nocturn batch 1 and maybe Colour 5.

Uberkind or Wunderkind?

Uber...

This is correct. Uberkind (not Wunderkind) is the base for everything except b1 Nocturn which was RU55 for the base, and Colour 5 which was an 89%/11% blend of Uberkind and RU55.

Does anyone know what the base beer for atrial batch 1 was?

Das Uberkind, for all batches of Atrial Rubicite, Omniscience & Proselytism, and grape refermentations (Cerveza de Tempranillo, Biere de Blanc du Bois, etc.). Batch 1 Nocturn was RU55 for the base, and batch 2 was Das Uberkind. Montmorency vs. Balaton has been 50/50 Das Uberkind + RU55. These base blends aren't set in stone, just appropriated from what's ready for use.

Dang, I didn't know that about MvB. I'm curious, how did you arrive on the blend ratios for MvB and Colour 5? Will the ratio for MvB change for batch 2? (I hope not. That beer was perfect IMO).

The blends for those two were mostly decided in relation to the character of the fruit. The cherries and blueberries were enhanced with a little boost in malt character from the RU55 component of the blend. For batch 2 MvB, the base blend ratios are the same. That being said, the character of the beer and the fruit is/will always be different...sometimes subtle, sometimes drastic.

Yes! MvB is my favorite beer you've made. I hope future releases are the same blend of base beers.

BTW, thank you for taking the time to share information and answer all the questions raised both here and in the AMA thread. It's greatly appreciated. Also, this answer leads me to believe that batch 2 of MvB has already been brewed, which has me even more excited.

 

[BusinessSloth]

Montmorency vs. Balaton has been 50/50 Das Uberkind + RU55.

That makes so much sense now as to why that beer was just incredible. I wonder what a 75/25 blend of RU-55+ Das Uberkind would taste like.

Batch 2 MvB..........just the thought alone is the best Christmas gift ever

 

[Lutter]

Ugh. I'm getting over a cold, so I'll prolly miss this release.

 

[thejukes]

Sounds like it's gonna be gone this evening.

Which one of you rascals got me one? You're the best.

That's the best Quil variant. '09 was my favorite.

 

[Touch_My_BrettSacch]

Sold out at 3 pm today.

 

[TxUltraRunner]

There must have been a bum rush. I was there at about 1:30 and there were still about 6 or 7 cases left. Insane.

Yeah, when I got there at 2:30 there was only like 3 cases left, and literally no one in line. Got mine, enjoyed a few glasses of it, and by the time I left they were out.

So this is happening this weekend.

This will for sure tear some kind of neckbeard hipster hole in the space time continuum, right? I mean, because of the huge gathering at the brewery that is bound to happen because of this beer?
