What are you drinking now?

[BrewinHooligan]

Isnt it nice to say " Ive really enjoyed all the bottles of this beer Ive had, but now Im down to only a case of it"

No doubt! Can't wait to be measuring in barrels tho

 

[eandersen]

Dear lord Backwoods Bastard is incredible. I think this has easily leapfrogged KBS as my favorite Founders beer

 

[chuckstout]

Almost as good as last years

Did you happen to do the captain howdy release dinner?

 

[mcbaumannerb]

No ... didn't mean bottle release - this was a release to our website last night at midnight.

So, at the homebrew club meeting I had some Grisette (farmhouse ale from the brewery where we meet) and then sampled a bunch of homebrew. There was a Cru with BK C1 (Cantillion strain) that was awesome, a bunch of saisons that had a bitter finish (Gabe - care to guess on that?) a green RIS that was good. Then there was a green Lambic that was overwhelming with lemon/lime flavor (it was way too young to have been there) and a vanilla porter that was just bad. Now I'm waiting to do some work at midnight and finally decided to crack open Gabe's blackberry stout. Wow! The blackberry is faded but there and the sourness is just right. Great beer!

I haven't been thrilled with they bky C strains for primary. Did that beer have anything else in it? I've got a beer fermented with C1, C2, & C3 blend that I added some dregs too and it's tasting very nice.

Bitter saison? Wrong hops, too many hops at wrong time, or weird herbs/spices.

Glad you liked the stout! It never particularly tasted like blackberries. Wish I had froze some this year and that I had more of it. Will probably fit blueberry version into rotation soon.

0 tea thirty here. Perhaps with emergenC Norge side.

No, the C1 was all that was in there so it was a bit one dimensional. But, I loved it since it gave me a feel of what that strain would do

It didn't really taste like hop bitterness ... was more chemical aftertaste/bitterness. I was thinking a yeast by-product but not sure.

I started drinking the stout a little cold - it was really good once it got to the right temperature. That's what I get for being impatient

Time for a refill on the coff...

 

[nukebrewer]

Coffee and water. I hate mornings.

 

[MrNickVT]

Having water with a cliff bar and some almonds for breakfast.

 

[wobrien]

Just drinking water at work and wondering about a possible ethics question.

My wife is having her 39 week dr appointment at bryn mawr hospital (which is close to Tired Hands) and I'm wondering how inappropriate it would be to have her run in and get a couple growlers on her way home?

I figured the alchy thread is the best place to get this kind of advice

 

[mcbaumannerb]

Ummm ... yeah, completely appropriate! Never to early to familiarize your child with good brew pubs!

[NIZZLE]

Coffee looked at my carboy this morning and it's going crazy you I guess it's not a lost cause happy I am <(-_-)>

 

[unionrdr]

Two coffees & some cider to take my pills with. Then some hot dogs with pepper rings & smoky horseradish sauce.

It just came to me. Have you had my other HB i sent you? Just wondering

Not yet - I plan on having the cider this weekend (along with one that Stauff sent) and the RIS I'll probably let age a little more (unless you want me to have it sooner.)

Alright. That cider is award winning . Its up to for the RIS. I'm not pushing you to drink

 

[finsfan]

Interesting is the best thing I can say about that beer also. Not bad, but not good at the same time. Complex is an understatement...

Haha it wasnt terrible, took me a half hour to drink it. IT was the experience that was worth it

How the hell did i do this upside down thing. Anyway it was a nice surprise.

You got quite the haul there! not sure if you have had myrcenary but it was Delicious!!!!!

Scotch mixed with some hot wort.

I gotta try this sometime

Coffee looked at my carboy this morning and it's going crazy you I guess it's not a lost cause happy I am <(-_-)>

It might turn out a little drying than you would want but itll be beer none the less

Drinking water while making pancakes

 

[Remmy]

More Coff. Only a few hours away from smacking some brews.

 

[BrewinHooligan]

Coffee. Ground up the last of the beans this morning so I better make it to the store later if I plan to get anything done at all tomorrow.

 

[Remmy]

Coffee. Just kidding.

Beer. The party has begun.
