Sorry about the bad phone pic
 
Thanks unionrdr, it's one of many styles and brands in my collection. And I'm always interested in trading and obtaining more, especially from all those eclectic US micros and regionals...

1996 Harley Electraglide Classic for two up comfort, 2007 Victory Hammer for one up and neck twisting, 2000 Miata MX 5 for rain and arthritis lol! Too many rainy days and kicks in the saddle? And miss my Eddie Lawson Superbike already ;-(. But hey! My stale Altbier smells nice on the nightstand! Sorry for the crappy iPad bedside pic!
 
Doh Hel Brewings Festa Dubbel Trubbel Fritter Pale Ale - finally something that SWSBO will quaff! Turned out nice out of the keg at 5.2% ABV and went from primary to secondary to keg in only 8 days! Pushing it out at around 12 psi with a slight chill haze at 38F but very refreshing! Now if only the fookin rain would stop!

Tasted a sample from my latest IIPA post first round dry hop. Mmmm Simcoe. Now I'm having a Black Butte Porter.

Pics or it didn't happen...

My hefeweizen from last summer. Probably should have finished this by now but I found a few leftover bottles.

2.9% abv American pale ale heavily dry hopped with falconers flight hops.

Wow looks good. We're you able to keep the body and flavors up to par with the low abv?

I'm interested in low abv brews. I've always been more interested in flavor than being drunk.

You just have to use a few tricks to make sure it doesn't end up too thin or bitter. I've made this recipe twice, using this as guidance.

1. Mash between 155-160
2. Use English yeast with lower attenuation (I used S-04)
3. Use flavorful base malts (This recipe used Vienna malt)
4. Add all hops in the last few minutes of the boil and keep the IBUs fairly low

Despite the very low ABV, this beer placed second in the APA category in a local competition against 27 other beers. None of the judges made any comments about thinness or lack of flavor. Let me know if you want the recipe.

Root Cellar Helles - Munich Helles - brewed to style with Pilsner/Vienna/Munich malts, Tettnanger hops and German Lager yeast. Lagered for 3 months in a 'cave'.

That looks delicious. Mind sharing the recipe?

My Cicada IPA, 6.5% ABV. Smooth and well balanced IPA that's not overly bittering or a hop bomb (Simcoe Hops). It's just smooth and delicious!
