It hasn't been on oak that long? A week?
Call me crazy but lately I'm looking at brewing and smoking things as more of a burden than anything. I'm considering just buying my drinks and ordering food from restaurants.
Am I losing it or just going through a phase? Is there a way to "take some time off?" or is this a path of no return?
That's only 2 reasons there, Billy. ;-) Also, how the hell does SD sell beer on Sundays but MN doesn't? Your state is screwed up. But your state also has Surly and Lakefront, so it's not that bad.
Few days. My RIS was in it for 4 days and the oak was powerful. This is only the second beer I've dumped in here. Next is an IPA (for a mild oak) and it's turning into my sour barrel.
Fresh oak or chared?
Guess at first it up front then it will fade. My quad been in for a month and took a sample last night and it was awesome. I don't know if I should let it go longer or bottle/ keg now. (it's 15 gals)
Stopped for lunch in town.

nuke, I said almost the same thing you said about the Two Roads session. Great aroma and doesn't taste like a sessiony (made that up) beer. It's solid.
Cheers.
I need to get you some of the new beers from the newest brewery in town. No IPAs or anything like that. Lots of sours. They opened yesterday and the beer nerds were out in full force documenting every smell and sip of beer. ****ing annoying bastards.
Another HB Amarillo IPA.
Buzzed. You should be, too.
GO HUSKIES! Suck it for another year!

I saw you post about that yesterday, definitely want to try them sometime.
I am buzzed. Getting ready to start in on my four pack of Gandhi.
To Wesley:
I hate you.
Rye of the tiger now, had an Oarsman before as I clean the basement.
