Out for dinner at a steakhouse in St Paul. After tucking in to a nice filet and a couple glasses of Malbec, had dessert of spumoni and a chilled shot of limoncello. Glad my wife was driving!

That's gotta be Mancini's!

For tonight, I chose my old German Dampfbier or Steam Beer. It is the crystal clear version I prefer. The beer was brewed in June and still has all the qualities of a wheat beer.
I like 53% Pils, 22% Vienna, and 25% Munich I Weyermann malt in my Dampfbier and the 3068 yeast.

Think i fermented a bit too cold as there isn't much in the way of the banana clove I was aiming for, but it's not bad.

Aren't we being told on another thread that black malt and wheat are the magic ingredients for a perfect beer with a great-looking foam head, what went wrong? A very nice black beer. I brew black wheat beers too.

Yup. Love that old-school supper club vibe.

I started my Thirsty Thursday with a Stone delicious IPA. Now going back and forth between my HB Belgian Single and my HB Triple C ale. This is the Belgian. I fermented it on the cool side and it’s not quite as… Belgianie as I prefer, but still delicious. I’ll do it a bit warmer next time.

Here’s the Triple C

I just left this post in the General Homebrew Discussion section so not to clutter this thread. But I'm looking for some feedback on what may have gone wrong with my most recent HB. Please take a look if you want. Thanks.

Thanks! I've been working on it for quite some time, think I've finally nailed my post fermentation process.

Here’s a California / Austrian brewer that knows what a delicious Pilsner is supposed to look like! Trumer Pils, is the World’s top winner of 18, count’em EIGHTEEN gold medals! Check out the clarity!

I’ve had Trumer here before a few times, it’s one of my perennial favorites. Really a fantastic Euro Pilsner (Bavarian style really, but they are on the Austrian side of the border, so Austrian.) The great thing about Trumer is they ponied up and built a companion brewhouse here in California, Berkeley no less. So we get the fantastic and majestic Trumer Pils locally, hey that’s one way to avoid those import booze tariffs! You guys listening Hofbrau and Hacker-Pschorr!

Trumer Pils is a 4.9% ABV Pilsner, from a 400 year old enterprise. Trumer built the Berkeley brewery in 2004. I had the great opportunity to visit the Berkeley location with family. A great way to spend a weekend afternoon. Any afternoon actually! Prost!

I experimented with roasted barley in this just because I had sone but I won't do that again. Not terrible, but seems out of place for what im used to. As far as head, that glass sucked and I don't think was rinsed well as I'm getting a decent head on this beer in other glasses. I won't use roasted barley again as it really doesn't fit and i got a bit heavy handed with it, but whatever, it's still a drinkable break back into the hobby beer.

To stay on topic, a better pour of my was supposed to be dunkleweizen but more of a black wheat roasted barley beer.
