Had to make some room in the keg of German pils for appropriate carbonation. At least that's what I am telling myself. I'll just call it a Kellerbier for the next couple of weeks.
Local liquor store had Golden Road Belgian White on clearance cheaper than Coke or Pepsi. It is surprisingly not bad. (about like Blue Moon) It makes a really good something-like-a-radler but stronger by adding a little sour lemon syrup. I've had a couple of those.
Happy Independence Day!
HM ginger beer. The latest batch since I couldn't find the previous one in all the moving disorder. This has a couple of pounds of wheat DME and a pound of table sugar in a 3 gallon batch. Body is much improved from all sugar but now wish I'd used all DME. Tasty, though.
Last pour from a growler of HB pale I took to my neighbors. We went over for a cookout. I also brought growlers of HB Munich Dunkel and raspberry hard lemonade, plus a bottle of HM Limoncello. My wife baked Dutch chocolate fudge cookies to bring. Everything was a hit.
Working on the 4th (and 5th) thus sleep is optional. Running out of retail, no HB, damn leg flared up again today, cats and dogs living together...so these will work...
Left at 4am, got to our first stop on the way to obx, they start serving at 10am, pulled in at 10:08 live music started at 11am.. I really love this trip, been doing this family vacation for 10 years now. Even with the coming "tropical depression" it will be hard to keep me out of the ocean, so relaxing.
