What are you drinking now?

[NIZZLE]

Founders Dirty Bastard growler, fyi if you ever visit Founders dont eat the Devil Dancer sandwich, dont get me wrong it was effin delicious and very hot......very hot. Lets just say I paid for it yesterday lol

The devil dance sandwich is my wife and my favorite ;-)

 

[NIZZLE]

Down pour right now, and it sucks!

Oh I thought you were practicing safe drinking haha

 

[Channel66]

Haha, sorry man, this is as clear as it gets for me

3.5oz dry hop and no finings=hazy beer. I usually don't bother with clarity, unless I'm serving it to people that care (parties/weddings). Your lady did an amazing job without any finings, I would be proud of mine to just not complain about me brewing. Well done sir!

I usually don't get worked up over clarity either, but she was proud of herself. I've got some sour non wheat Belgians that have been bulk aging for 16-24 months, if I were to cold crash them I'd imagine they would be about as clear as possible. I told her she opened a can of worms.

My Bloody Beer cleared really well for having actual tomato puree in it

I'm impressed

My clearest creation. No cold crash or filtering but I threw a whirlfloc in the boil.

The outdoor picture is the same beer in different light.

Nice work!

 

[Ridire]

Nice work!

Thanks. I have another batch of it in the fermenter right now. I upped the wheat on the recipe so I'm hoping I can get similar clarity. I'll probably cold crash this one.

This reminds me of Nugget Nextar (sigh...only eight more months before that returns)!

 

[TNGabe]

I think this was my bíere de mars....

She says "okay Gabe wins" as she gets up to pour another "show off"

My swmbo is issuing me and apparently you guys a challenge. She has brewed with me for some time, recently started doing a few batches on her own

I was in the lab earlier and received this text.

"Just poured the first pull off my cream ale, easily the clearest beer I have made to date, as a matter of fact it's clearer than anything I've seen you brew or show me on that site of yours. Btw. The tomato plants need water."

I just got to the house and poured one for myself.

I have to admit that's pretty solid. She doesn't know what finings are, and I don't own a filtering setup so I am pretty impressed. But let's see those crystal clear beers.

Impressive. Most impressive.
My kolsch is my clearest to date (the it of haze you see is condensation)

 

[dandepoto]

The pre dinner delight. A little boozey for me right now, but I'm loving the hop intensity.

Nicely done!

Here's the best picture I have of my DIPA that kicked last week. You can clearly see the logo on the reverse side of the glass. The little bit of haze is condensation on the glass. I kept wiping the glass before I took the picture, but it just reformed immediately. Not bad clarity for 17 oz of hops in a 5 gallon batch. 4 of which were dry hops. And then I recharged the keg after a few more weeks with 2 more ounces making it 19 oz total for this batch. Just Whirfloc and cold crash.

 

[Gixxer]

Water... We are not allowed to drink here... December can't get here soon enough, I have a few batches that will be ready when I get home!

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Testing up a new glass and yummy

 

[Swarley88]

Indeed Brewing Midnight Ryder.

It's been awhile for me but I figured I would start tonight off with some Jack

Very impressive for a pale ale, unreal for a DIPA!


I'm over the clarity kick for a bit. I challenged her back. Make a beer with this much flavor.

Cascade/Citra IPA. 4oz of each. "Straight gangsta ipa" caps are a pic of our new years party/****show.

Just mowed the lawn, now drinking an Ayinger Celebrator.

That's a lawnmower beer, right?

Just got done doing the same. Debating but think I will have a cigar and a blonde.

EDIT: back to clarity, what you see there is a shed about 70'-80' away.

Good idea beer could be the grand prize.

But where on earth are we going to find beer?

 

[Swarley88]

Another Golden Monkey.

 

[allenH]

Good idea beer could be the grand prize.

Like all participants send a bomber of their best local beer to the winner, maybe a homebrew also? That could be epic.
