What are you drinking now?

[Drinking Sensibly]

Count yourself lucky, I coated the inside of my freezer with a the occasional eisbomb during my bottling career.

I remembered it before it fully froze, luckily, I normally put a timer on but I forgot this time. Still, an interesting experience. I have kegs but I think some beers are nicer from bottles.

Tried turning it upside-down?

My brut IPA is finally clear after six months in the keg. Not sure what the problem was since previous batches have not had this problem. Of course it'll probably kick on the next pour.

My brut IPA is finally clear after six months in the keg. Not sure what the problem was since previous batches have not had this problem. Of course it'll probably kick on the next pour.

The fault is my own and brought about by a mixture of hubris, laziness, and curiosity. It's been forever since I've used the Whitbread dry strain and the first pitch indicated that it was as quick to finish and flocc as the UK strains that I keep year round (Fullers and T. Taylor). On a whim, I decided to keg this batch w/o a crash and decided I may as well skip the finings while I'm at it, just to see. Well, I now know that I should've crashed it and fined it.

Edit: Your remark prompted me to wonder if perhaps I have another floating dip tube ball that has cracked and sunk. Thanks for making me think.

Just turn off the lights and drink it.

Tasty München dunkel

Just turn off the lights and drink it.

This is good advice, I should heed it.

It worked for Socrates.

Didn't end well for him, I'm told.

HB smoked porter. Last one.

Some ordinary bitter.

Nothing spectacular to write about tonight. Budweiser Zero, my go-to diet beer!

At 50 calories is it still OK to name it "ZERO"?

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Hb malt free, unhopped, unfermented, NA clone, with a touch of lemon.... cause I need some flavor. Maybe a beer tomorrow but for now still on this water concoction. Proper glassware.

HB CCC Blonde. Kegged two days ago, hasn’t cleared much yet but tastes good.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Irish red then many tastes of HB.

 

[BongoYodeler]

Perhaps my favorite. A 2014 FW Sucaba, an English style Barleywine.

 

[Rish]

Last of the bottling left overs of the Chinese rice wine. Pretty tasty.

The greatful head.
Last glass of my best good PA.
I should have known when the pour before this was hazy.
At least I still have 2 kegs tapped and one in the FV.

 

[pshankstar]

This will do. Actually quite delicious!

A home brewed Helles Bock, called Materhorn Maggie, named after my grand daughter Maggie. Very tasty summer beer - perfect for today's hot and humid toaster.

Really tasty Helles Bock. Perfect lunch - a BLT with garden fresh tomato & homebrew.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Latest Hazy attempt. Nectron/Bru-1/Voss. Pineapple hop bomb. Came out at 8%, well above intended. Fermentation stalled and had to re-oxygenate. We'll see....

Vaya con Dios

 

[MaxStout]

Another beer from the @pshankstar sampler. I have heard lots about this beer but never tried it. A face full of hops aroma and juicy flavor. Def not an ibu bomb. It would be easy to drink too many of these.

I'd say it lives up to the hype.

 

[Rish]

AL brewed Belgian style white.
