That’s a pretty beer.

I've made smoked porters before but was disappointed - lack of smoke. This is my first Rauchbeir and I am impressed - this is what I expected smoked beer to taste like. I am looking up recipes now - beefwood and alder seem to be a good choice and cold smoking your own malt also appears to be a good alternative to some of the disappointing commercial smoked malts out there.

I have had great success cold smoking my own malt. Totally worth it.

Irish Death. I really like this beer. I think one reason I like it is that the brewery makes it clear that it isn’t brewed to a particular style. They just call it ”a smooth, dark, ale”. For 8% it is pretty smooth.

Nice! That's what I'm aiming for with the beer I just kegged. How is it? Are you drinking it fairly young? Looks great..

'Hall Pass' Imperial Dry-hopped Sour with Belma, from local Eighty-Eight Brewing Co. A refreshing pint of 7.5% beer, with minimal sour. Very thirst-quenching!

The gnomes were calling, so had a little sip of La Chouffe Blonde. It's such a classic. Happy Spring!

Bigfoot Barleywine 2007

I just tasted a Barleywine I made in November of 2005, so I needed to compare it to the beer I was shooting for. At this point, that’s only about a year apart. Close enough!

I use 34/70 for almost all my lagers. It is even supposed to stay pretty clean at warmer temperatures. There’s a thread around here about that. I have a Pilsner plugging away with it right now. I usually don’t even do a diacetyl rest with it.

I made a cold IPA recently with it fermented at 65 rising to 70. Very clean and dry.

Up all night and should've done something more fun but ended up on the spreadsheet retirement planning. These helped...

Can never come soon enough, but hopefully the timing works out for you.

OT: tea, it's cold and rainy and windy so tea it is

Yeah, SWIMBO wants what she wants. Living next to hurricane and sargassum infested beaches...ha!

It's really tasty, with a firm bitterness that I enjoy. And yes, it's very young, hasn't cleared yet. I used an interesting hop combination:

Another bottle of the Maibock. Sorry, Abita -- I took your recipe and did you one better!

HB American stout. Northern Brewer and Crystal at pretty high levels. Who says a stout can’t be hoppy?

All this chatter with @RumOnTheDocks makes me want to brew. Picked up a Belgian Dubbel and Helles kit using 34/70 as @camonick suggested.

Love these guys! So helpful and I get free beer. Guinness and they're Hefe. Locally owned and online also. Keep thinking I should have have them ship to me with all this Austin traffic....
