What are you drinking now?

[BrewinHooligan]

BP is at 1.022 from 1.092 in 9 days. Can't complain about that. I'll see how it changes with lagering, but I'm pretty happy with recipe for the first attempt. Might tweak the specialty malts a little next time, but I can see keeping this one around most of the time. Now I just need to figure out where I can lager a third batch.

Those just get better with time... I need to rebrew my Baltic porter. Gonnna brew a cali common next and will probably harvest yeast from that and do the Baltic porter after.

Someone remind me around September to make at least 4 batches of strong, dark beer for next winter.

I'll remind you if you remind me, my plan exactly!

I'm in!! Think the mini fridge I keep the beer in took a dump so I figure I am gonna try and drink a few while they are still cold

This tastes really good after a year of age. However, I'm getting a green olive/soy sauce smell in the aroma. Weird.

Glad you're enjoying it! I hope it lived up to the expectations I put on it for you. Really a solid beer.

I'm still fairly new to scotch ale even though I'm a big fan of them, but this is the top of my list so far.

First ninkasi.

I like. Thanks LoloMT7!

 

[BrewinHooligan]

Pretty decent, but with a 3yr old tugging on my arm while shopping total wine I missed the "best by 6/14/13" on the bottle. Really want to try this fresh and really surprised at the hop aroma and flavor this old

Just mixed some HB dunkel with some rye pale ale for a "brown and tan". Had my doubts, but it's actually pretty good!

Once again... Coffee.

 

[TNGabe]

Oolong. Everything has closed here in case it snows later. I'm staring at the radar loop wondering what it is I'm missing. Hopefully my wife doesn't get stuck at the hospital when folks who actually get snow can't make it in. On the other hand, overtime is nice and I can always use extra bourbon money for vacation. . Either way, it's going to be a brew day later when I figure out what to make.

Coff.

Sleeping in until 7 feels wonderful. Water right now.

I've got a massive lager chamber right now. Just wrap it in your warmer to keep it from freezing in the five degree air and I'll set it right outside the door.

Water and coffee ...

On my 2nd mug of coffee. -7F here this morning...here we go again...

 

[Hello]

Drinking espresso. I need to get my rear in gear and get ready.

Is it as dark as it looks? From what I've had from Aviator, I wouldn't be shocked if it was infected or otherwise flawed.

No, it's like SRM 4 or 8. It's light but the flash kills it.
I don't think it is infected, wouldn't it gush or something? It just smelled different. I have one more can that I'll try. It wasn't as bad once it warmed up but that beer is meant to be drank colder.

It sounds like an extract flavor to me, not everyone is sensitive to it but I know I am. I would be happy to sample if you want.

PM me your address. I think you are right. This was the first one I did with all extract that fermented at the right temp. the first was overpowered by citrus flavors and such because it fermented hot. Maybe that is what I taste. I don't really brew extract now so I can work it again. I do have one kit I need to brew and I will likely just get it done this weekend. Another stout, shocker.

Wtf is this?

Our liquor rep was trying to upsell us on that. "Aimed towards the higher alcohol drinkers blah blah, and they spent like 40+million in ads!" I was like is it really that bad? Do they have to toss it down our throats every commercial chance? Haha he was bragging about the all of 6.8% or whatever it was. I'm biased cause the guy is a tool but we are a craft beer bar, we don't sell no Miller
