Moerlein Helltown Rye-ot and OTR Ale at the Midpoint Music Festival (which is conveniently across from the brewery). Waiting on the Raveonettes to go on.
 
Onto hb pale ale after splitting this with a neighbor, it was good.

I just stumbled across something in my brewing notes that reminded me that I did a small batch...11 bottles...of a "Cherry Belle Saison" with an extra gallon that I had when I brewed my Citra Belle Saison. The cherry saison has Citra hops at during the boil, but no dry hopping. It was racked onto fresh cherries that were frozen and then vodka soaked. Completely forgot about these! They were bottled on 8/12 and I'm probably going to let them age until Thanksgiving, but I'm going to open one tonight...as soon as I play taxi driver and get back home!
 
After judging and driving back down to DC, had a full liter of Warsteiner followed by a little bit of someone's Märzen (not sure who's, someone handed it to me) at my club's Oktoberfest party at a German cafe on Capitol Hill. Damned good Jägerschnitzel, too.
 
Sam Adams Oktoberfest. Interested to see what they have at the party I'm going to. Its an engagement party and the groom is an avid homebrewer.

This is such an awesome beer. I love their Monster Beer Tour. Those are Terrapin's best beers.

Gravity sample of my Old Ale. Just over 7% ABV and 1.022 after primary fermentation, but will probably go a little lower after sitting for a while with Brett in secondary.
 
Been working on a growler of southern tier unearthly today (pic from earlier). Led to an early nap. Now watching an old Saturday night live you with Richard Pryor talking about acid with another beer.

what has 2 thumbs and just woke up from an awesome nap?

That's not you!

Orlando Brewing I-4 IPA ... along with some amazing pepper bacon hash. I thing the beer got an extra half cap on Untappd courtesy of the hash. :D

Here's the Cherry Belle Saison...interesting, Not sweet, but I get the cherry and I get the saison character. The aroma is barely sweet; the pour gives a nice,almost white heat that settle to a ring around the glass and a thin veil on the surface. The color is definitely cherry red. The body is pretty light. I think I got the carb right on this one. There is just a touch of hops bitterness coming through. Nice alcohol warmth building. I calculated 5.64% ABV, so, potent, but not crazy. I'm happy with it.

Bottled 09/06/13. Bought this a couple weeks ago. There was dust all over the four pack. I guess people didn't realize what they had. I'm probably gonna go buy the rest of it.

I really like the color of that brew. Would you mind sharing the recipe?

Root beer.

Brew day went well, but I totally couldn't get the hose loose from the wort chiller. I ended up cutting the hose off after about 20 minutes of dicking with it. I'm feeling very frustrated about that.

Nice.. I racked a saison that was down to 1.006 to 2.5lbs frozen strawberry halves bought earlier today at a local farmer's market..

Smelled really good when filling up and changed color right away.


How long did you keep the beer on the cherries?
