What are you drinking now?

[finsfan]

What's your untappd name?





I'd love to try one if you're able to set one aside.





Water. Went for a motorcycle ride and still feel cruddy. Just needed to be out.

I know, I'm whiny.



I think I'll clean a keg and rack my bier de garde over.

Consider it done!

I just can't get past the lip smacking. It drives me absolutely crazy.

You know damn mother****ing well I can't grill without a double IPA in-hand.

My 5 Boroughs.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Very lazy day. Playing some N64 games. Having a 12 rayon vert

 

[Remmy]

And just poured a HB cream ale, Mister Softee. Still haven't finished my DIPA. But I'm sure it'll get smashed in the next 20 seconds.

 

[banesong]

Undertaker. Leftovers from NHC.

 

[mcbaumannerb]

Next, the altbier. Another pretty solid one. Probably because it isn't a hoppy one...

Sloppy Sunday.

Smacked. Done.

[mhurst111]

No!!!!! Such a bummer. How was the trip?


Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Trip was awesome. Many fish were caught, many more were not. A Manhattan after fishing and then decent beer the rest of the night.

I'm not sure if I screwed up on Thai me up or if they changed their hours. I swore it said daily at 2. Now the web sight says daily at 5. Either way, there is always next year.

Got a growler of Pako's and another of Zonker to work thru in the next couple days.

Well, it's ~95% Maris Otter, ~5% Crystal Malt, all Challenger hops, about 38 IBUs, and about 10-11 SRM, per the brewery.

Here's the most current version I brewed:


6 lbs 12.0 oz Pale Malt, Maris Otter (Thomas Fawcett) (3.0 SRM) Grain 5 93.1 %
8.0 oz Crystal Dark - 77L (Crisp) (75.0 SRM) Grain 6 6.9 %
0.50 oz Challenger [8.90 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 7 19.5 IBUs
1.00 oz Challenger [8.90 %] - Boil 15.0 min Hop 8 19.4 IBUs
1.00 oz Challenger [8.90 %] - Boil 0.0 min Hop 9 0.0 IBUs
1.0 pkg Burton Ale (White Labs #WLP023) [35.49 ml] Yeast 10 -


Gravity, Alcohol Content and Color

Est Original Gravity: 1.044 SG
Est Final Gravity: 1.011 SG
Estimated Alcohol by Vol: 4.2 %
Bitterness: 38.9 IBUs
Est Color: 8.0 SRM

I usually get a slightly darker color that BeerSmith predicts, and the color is about right (at least as seen in a hydrometer sample), as is the bitterness. The malt character is a little muted, but that may be a factor of age (with a little light oxidation in the bottles I get). The late hop character is also a little strong, but the character is about right, so that may also be a factor of age. I'll know more once I get it out of primary and packaged and aged a little bit. It's in the ballpark, but I wouldn't call it cloned. Next time around I'm going to use a little lighter of a Crystal and use a little more of it, and tone back the later hops.

I tried both the WLP023 Burton Ale (may be their fermentation strain according to internet rumors) and culturing from the bottle. The WLP023 seems closer, so they may be bottling with a different strain than they brew with.

Meanwhile, another round of BJCP studying w/ Weihenstephaner Oktoberfestbier. Seems if you use the 2014 guidelines this is a good example of Festbier, but per the 2008 guidelines it's very out of style as Märzen/Oktoberfest.

Thanks for the recipe. I'll let you know it turns out when I brew it. Do you think it's necessary to bottle condition? I'd rather keg it and if what you say is true about them bottling with a different strain then I don't think it would matter much if I keg it.

Another from the zeptrey BIF. This one smells a lot better than it tastes. Now, don't get me wrong, it tastes great, but the spicy, yeast dertived phenolics are so intense in the aroma and it's just a shame that they don't come through as strong in the flavor. Maybe it will open up a bit as it warms a few degrees.

I would relax better if my yard were edged that well.

Best part about living in the ****ing woods is not having to edge a damn thing. I'm annihilated goodnight.

 

[mcbaumannerb]

I'm pretty sure my loaner laptop still won't have the needed software installed on it tomorrow...so another beer makes total sense.


Another decent brew.

another pour of the Irish Brown.

 

[MrNic]

Leftovers from bottling my IPA. It's quite tasty, although I think I got some oxygen when I was transferring, so we'll see how it turns out.

 

[finsfan]

Just finished a black angus stout on nitro at little apple.

 

[BUCKNUTS]

HB IPA with Columbus, Amarillo, Apollo, Summit and Comet. I was expecting something pretty dank but instead I got a citrus bomb of an IPA. This won't be around long.
