My knowledge of the science is obviously ****, but I don't get how you could brew with actual ice cream and come out with a product that didn't have to be refrigerated.

Brewing is some crazy ****, man.

 

[shuggy1]

I feel like they are basically just adding flavored lactose sugar to the boil? Seems pointless but what do I know...I own zero breweries.

(The boil pasteurizes it, thus no need for refrigeration)

I heard it was aged on Dilly Bars. Stick and all.

That's some forward thinking brew **** right there...pre-fermentation wood aging.

There was actual ice cream added. I remember seeing it on Twitter a while back. I'll try to find it.


EDIT: found it. I tried to get more info but didn't get much beyond ice cream is apparently hard to ferment.

I hope the bugs liked it then...otherwise this has mess written all over it...would love to hear what the FG was.

I think you mean "birch staves"

 

[brother rebus]

How was everyone's PCBW? ****** because there was nothing going on that wasn't a horrific embarrassment? Mine too! Maybe next year the organizers will change the name to POSCBW before jumping off the Beer Barge with a quarter of Nutella lambic collab tied to their waists.

I actually started mine with a Prospero from jagoffbrewer and ended it last night with a half growler. My only partaking.

When the Real Ale Fest was in planning, they were trying to have it on the Clemente Bridge. That turned out to be a near-impossibility.

...yet they could do Picklesburg?

Ice cream stout? Pass.

Yea. Especially a bourbon ice cream stout, then made sahr by wild fermentation?
Like give it a rest. Pick your battlefield. Wild stuff is their ****. Leave bourbon and stout out of it. Especially icecream.

Isn't that a fairly high FG even by stout standards?

 

[nhindian1]

Isn't that a fairly high FG even by stout standards?

Yes, it was just a joke

 

[OneDropSoup]

Just taking a wild stab, but 1.2 is probably the OG of molasses.

EDIT: Looks like molasses is more around 1.4, but yeah, I can't say I've heard of a beer having an OG of 1.2, much less an FG.

EDIT: Thus the joke.

 

[kbuzz1]

I don't understand much these days, but I get gravity jokes.

 

[MooseLang]

Dark Lord actually has a FG of 1.2000 amirite?

 

[shuggy1]

Dark Lord actually has a FG of 1.2000 amirite?

The FG of Dark Lord is 1.060 which is actually asinine.

 

[OneDropSoup]

The FG of Dark Lord is 1.060 which is actually asinine.

That high? I've seen figures varying from 1.033 to 1.047, which, still...

All of those are laughable.

 

[PSUMike]

I would love to know the FG on A Deal with the Devil B2. Holy hell was that sweet.

 

[OneDropSoup]

All of those are laughable.

Yeah, I mean, I guess if you can laugh at this, you can laugh at pretty much anything.

 

[shuggy1]

Can't remember where but somebody degassed a sample and got that reading from it.

 

[chefduff2]

You can have fun guessing gravity when southern tier shows up.

 

[OneDropSoup]

I would love to know the FG on A Deal with the Devil B2. Holy hell was that sweet.

Says OG is 37 Plato, & with an ABV of 17.3%, that would make it around 1.032 (I think).

 

[kbuzz1]

Yeah, I mean, I guess if you can laugh at this, you can laugh at pretty much anything.

holy ****....I think I won the gif-off!!!

(dude...c'mon....the ministry of silly walks is a top 10...multi-layered humour at it's finest)

Yep, fell on my own sword. I'll kindly ask you to never use ^this^ word again.

[wyckydsceptre]

So no one wants me to bring them back any Dark Lord this weekend? Rats. I was hoping 1:1 with MBP

 

[McMatt7]

**** lactose, i don't tolerate it.

Somebody post a gif of Danny Glover on the toilet, i know it exists, and i'm too old for this ****.

 

[McMatt7]

I plan on drinking High Life and Genny Cream until craft beer week 2017. #lethalweapon2

So, you'll really need that gif of Danny glover on the toilet.

So I'm guessing this means there's no "Two" coming from brewgentlemen
