At my mother in laws house and actually has a craft beer.

Since it was nice and ballooned, I tapped the first "cask" of my Pale Mild. I should have started using polypins sooner...

Sweet. Gravity fed, I assume? Wonder how quickly you will need to consume. How reusable, and how much?

Belgian collab from RR. Apple juice and sweet. On the blech side of meh.

Golden road hef while brewing up my first sour (not counting a Berliner).

The hef wasn't carbonated (QC issues!) but luckily I'm a huge fan of cask beers, so still tastes great

Yes. Gravity fed. I filled 5x 1 gallon pins. I go for 5 in the fermenter and usually hit 5.1-5.2 or so, so actually bottled about 4.7 gallons leaving just a bit of headspace in each pin, primed to 1.2 volumes.

I'm assuming the pins are reusable. I plan on rinsing after use and then cleaning/sanitizing and reusing em. I got em from http://www.usplastic.com/, the "cubitainer" box and insert is a little more than it should be, but the inserts (the actual polypin) is only a couple bucks, and the spigot also only a couple bucks. I ordered 10 inserts, 5 boxes, and 10 spigots for about $70 including shipping.

I'm on my third pint already. I'm not worried about shelf life once tapped, since at this rate it'll be gone by tomorrow. My concern is the shelf life of the other pins that haven't been tapped yet.

Busy afternoon in the brewery. Racked my lambeec on some Montmorency cherries,

Split my saison into three 1 gallon batches with two pounds of mango, kiwi and pomegranate respectively. Then added Cantillon Brett to the remaining 3 gallons (thanks for the yeast Joe!)

Sounds awesome!

That beer was a total mind-funk. It started out with fermented out blueberries, followed by cinnamon and vanilla, and at the end, it was like a dough-glove gave your tongue a handshake. That was witchcraft-ery.
