Really enjoy this, but a little more "balanced" than I prefer my IPA's but I'm digging it

Rogue Northwestern Ale with a great homemade meal.

Not sure why, but I always come back to this particular beer when I know I want a really solid red ale.
 
Oskar Blues G'night, Back in Black IPA, my HB amber, and Duck Rabbit Milk Stout.

**serious question, that coke fridge I was talking about, the guy said it will be about $100-200 to fix and lowest he'll go is $80. Worth it?

Nope. At least wouldn't be to me. Keep looking on CL, something better will show up. What part of NC are you in?

Another sample of my biere de noel. Still at 1.032. I think 13% is all WLP072 can handle. Time to cold crash and then rack over to another carboy and add some brett anamola I guess.

So you're saying it's possible a simple temp controller won't fix whatever he's talking about?

I'm just outside of Raleigh.
 
Dominion Lager, another one of the BoTM beers. For a yellow lager it's not bad. Im not really a Lager fan in general. Almost glad this is the last month of getting these.

I don't know what that means, but I did just chase some morons off my property with my 12 gauge. Not sure if they even saw the gun, maybe it was all the lights I turned on and me yelling 'Whatcha doin over there. Ya you, in the pullout'. Damn phone company relay box the former owner of our property leased a small piece of the property for. I got the phone company to put some posts in at the entrance last year. They were supposed to put up a gate. It was chained off for a while, but the chain dissappeared.

You'll have to remind me of the problem. Turns on and won't shut off? Runs til it freezes up?

Flatlander! I'm north of Ashville about 75 minutes. Was thinking about hitting a convenience store auction on Saturday for a new ferm chamber, but even if I get a great deal on an extra one, too far for you to bother with.

Having the last biere de garde from my 10th brew. Purdy good! Really looking forward to the one lagering now, 4 weeks down, 2 to go.
 
I'm drinking some of my wife's cousins (cousin in law?) Homebrew, tastes kind of like an English ipa, he calls it "ale" in broken English.

They don't know, I was raised French. I love it
 
I just arranged a trade to get a 4 pack of this and I CANT WAIT!!! I think its the one I am most excited to try. Cheers Nuke.

You won't be disappointed. Such a fantastic beer. Not sure if you've ever had Heady Topper, but in a blind (literally) taste test I had a very hard time telling the difference. It's that good.

Thought it would be interesting to try blending beers. This combo, however, is not worth it. They're too similar so I can't really tell it's a blend at all, though it seems that the FP aroma is winning a bit over the GB aroma. Otherwise, can't tell much difference. The good news is it's still as good as either one by itself.

Glad it's not just my phone that thinks 'Homebrew' is a proper noun. No biere de garde? Speaking of Bdg, what makes some yeast strains 'lava lamp' after cold crashing if they warm back up?

If it's a top cropper in the true sense of the term, as it warms up the yeast will begin floating back to the top and gelling up, I'm sure you've noticed top cropping yeast forms like foam insulation when it's high krausen, then as it falls, what is left is lavalamp like just floating on top. If the beer is chilled it all falls out, but as it warms up it will start becoming buoyant again, if you let it warm fully to the yeasts optional temp it will sit on top instead of being partially buoyant like what I think you are experiencing.

Um, yes, I have had Heady, and it was amazing. So that makes me even more excited for the box to get here!!!

I moved on to the Pliny. Its super fresh. Bottled 1 1/2 weeks ago. Tasty, but damn, that Blind Pig was a LOT better. The BP has way more of the "hop candy" flavor to it. Even for a super fresh Pliny, it seems muted, and not as bright. They are both great, but i would rather had another Pig over the Pliny.

I have some SixPoint Resin coming in the trade too. Yet another beer I crave, even here in Norther California haha.

$3 Live Oak pint night. Starting with the Oaktoberfest. Meh, it's ok, but I'll move on after this. $3 specials every Tuesday, 27 taps total, good food, and the place is walking distance from my hotel. I'll be coming back.

After a Rogue Dead Guy and five Oktoberfest's, hammered some Macallan 18 and Herradura Añejo.
