Hb Chocolate Sour Brown watching more racing after the Indy 500 earlier

Are those fooking thong sandals yours?

Just opened a gift bottle of Petrus Red. Not sure I can make it through this one though, dang its sweet...like a tangy Dr. Pepper

Wow. You're just working your way through that whole line of Sam Adams beers I always see and think about trying but never do.

I wouldn't buy them myself either ... have had too many from SA that aren't that good, but I'm at a cookout so it's this or Corona

This ones not so bad...

All goes smoothly, then my sink drain clogs. Given that I'd be unable to run my chiller without it, kind of an emergency. Takes me a good while to get that unclogged, but I get it done. In the mean time, while I'm focusing on the drain I neglect to catch a boilover. Fortunately while I didn't stop it, I caught it immediately before it made TOO big of a mess.

Then countless other small spills throughout the course of the brew. Then the pre-chiller I built to supplement my immersion chiller did f@&# all but save me 15 minutes in chill time (45 minutes down to about half an hour). The ice had all melted within the first 15 minutes.

All seemed to work out okay though, since I nailed my volume and nailed my gravity. And nailed my mash temp.

Hopefully batch number two will run smoothly (halfway through a 90 minute mash now). After batch one, I'm lucky I'm even able to do batch two today.

Good luck on number 2, that sounds like a long day. You'll get more out of the pre-chiller if you wait to hook it up until the main chiller has cooled the wort most of the way - 90 degress is when most people hook there's up, I believe.

Having some Motueka Biere de Mars and wading through the giant 2 hearted clone thread.

Another meh...

I haven't been impressed by any of the Sam IPAs.

Never had the Red. I'm assuming its a Flanders Red? I really dig the Oud Bruin.

Hope it's not a 750, you might get the diabetes!

Too bad that beer isn't aged pale + cherries. That would be great.

Yep. I learned that lesson pretty quickly, and that was precisely the plan for batch #2

Gotcha. Good choice then. The only acceptable setting for corona is on the beach in Mexico, listening to live music and eating nachos and chicharones.
Spent many hours doing just that on many trips.

Still at it. Nice IPA courtesy of xMalachi.

Ha!! No those belong to my fiancee, I hate sandals

Never had the Red. I'm assuming its a Flanders Red? I really dig the Oud Bruin.

It's a blend of something like 80% Oud Bruin and 20% Pale aged on cherries, don't quote me on that though. I really enjoy the Pale, but this one, at least to my palette, is cough syrup sweet.

It is (was) a 750, although the bulk of it just got reassigned to marinate some spicy chicken wings and thighs. And ditto on the Pale on cherries, or at least a much greater % of Pale, would be great.

Last of my first 4pk of 3Beans.

Definitely won't be the last of my last 4pk!

I brought this home with me from a short trip to visit with family.





Still drinking water. Probably going to take the night off, after overindulging the last two days.

Man, I'm jealous! I love Three Floyds! I hope I get a chance to go back there again. They are the brewery that led to my obsession with extremely hoppy beer. Dreadnaught is awesome!
