That is not safe glass handling but pretty sweet picture lol

 

[Dave1096]

Love Duet...really, really love Nelson. You get your hands on any bottles of that?

 

[PatrickGoss]

Eh. I've just lost interest.

@finsfan likes the attention. He's not going to bribe you.

Likely true.... but keep playing the game and I will bribe you anyways. It's how I roll.

In the morning I will be blaming @finsfan for suggesting I chug and then blaming @coldcrash for inspiring me to double the volume and chug again. In the morning my wife will be blaming @patrickgoss for staying up all night drinking and wont give a **** about any of the names I drop in explanation as she equates HBT to me playing sims... even though, I am assuming, people on there don't send you beer.

Haven't posted on here for a while.
Been sick for the last couple of days so trying to slowly get back into drinking.
Drinking wood chipper.
Thanks @thatjonguy

That sucks, but I've been drinking well tonight, thanks to you

I like to live life on the edge

I miss drinking with you floccers. It's on tomorrow night. Especially since Matt sent me a bunch of super fresh IPAs.

I should probably brew tomorrow....but it sounds like lots of work when I just want to drink.

Doing my lame taxes tonight...

 

[Dave1096]

Different strokes...I realize I'm in the minority in nugget nectar. We can at least agree that alpine makes some of the best IPAs on the planet, though?

Had my first and only two tonight and they were awesome. Definitely can agree on that point. Cheers!

I've had nugget nectar I wasn't completely awed by it. it's good but not a personal fav.

Busy Friday night around here. Watch one movie and all hell breaks loose....

Since this seams to be that action spot I'll get a quick question if I was to do an ipa with 100% Brett (not sure which Brett hope to get help hint hint cough) dipa would it just finish dry as hell And not funky, seeing how Brett if not stressed will just ferment nicely? Will I still get hop aroma and flavor? Any help welcome and if your mad I'm sorry sorta a drunk thought going on here lol

I have been researching this very topic and have decided for my next brew I am going to brew a 100% brett fermented ipa with white labs brett brux trois. I plan to implement a few Strategies to combat the brett from drying out the beer too much. A higher than normal mash temp, wheat and carapils in the grist and a big starter so that the beer will finish in a "normal" amount of time say 3-4 weeks. I also intend to dry hop the hell out of this beer. I am brewing this in 2 weeks and will get my starter on my stir plate soon since brett grows more slowly than saccharomyces cerevisiae.

[Qhrumphf]

Double pour of my Mild and then going to bed. Pretty much done in by the three previous beers, so there's that.

Also, add me in the "Nugget Nectar is decent but meh" camp.

Has your research shown that Brett trios might not be Brett at all? I read that a couple weeks ago, but it wasn't settled, wondering what the current consensus is...

 

[thatjonguy]

Nugget Nectar is ok, amber/red is low on the list of beer I drink.

But if my buddy that brews at Troegs asks me, I tell him it's ok unless he brewed the batch.


Then it tastes like ass.

That is a 100% daytime question.

Goodnight HBT, will check back in tomorrow, hopefully while brewing something.

Late to the party tonight. Stout season...

Not much NN love around here. I must be a homer. Like @Remmy and @MrNickVT

 

[wobrien]

****, those tags were from my phone. @finsfan would not approve

 

[Qhrumphf]

Just saying, for @Remmy and all you other saggy f***ing c***s who badmouth session beers, you know you brew em right when your 2.7% session beer still has plenty of body and flavor after drinking 12+ year old 10%+ Barleywines.

My friend loves the stuff and got some for me. I just didn't get the hype. To each their own that's why beer is great I may hate something someone else loves.

That is news to me do you have a link to share? I would love to read it. I have been reading byo magazine, the mad fermentationslist and a few others about brett brux trois and this is the first I have heard of this. I love to do research and learn so if you have some info I have not seen please do share.

 

[Ridire]

Smacked and in need to work in the morning. This is how the night started...on a trip to the neighbors.

Hopefully the other alpine beer you had tonight was a Nelson...because that **** is mind-blowing. One of the few beers I've ever had that exceeded its hype.

I view session beer in the same vein that I view decaffeinated coffee its a waste of my time. Why drink a 2.7% flavorless beer when I can drink something that's 7% abv and loaded with flavor? You must just like creating excess urine to piss off the porch Remmy style.
