What are you drinking now?

[wobrien]

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.

I think it was it in the "cloning hophands by tired hands brewing company" thread but I'm not sure. I am sure that "coff" was discussing it. If you PM him, he will surely discuss it with you. He's a philly guy and a good one at that.

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.

It was. And it was.

Eh, dinner and a movie I guess.

You have piqued my curiosity I will definitely look in to it.

@igotsand is the man
amirite?

Of course I already have 2 vials in the fridge so most likely using it regardless but I do like to do my due diligence.

Word. He hooked it up! Trying to find some goodies to return fire.

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.

Let's learn how to read, shall we?

This 2.7% beer still has plenty of flavor when I'm already completely pissed, and even after drinking a few palate destroying bombs.

And what can I say, keeps the kidneys working. Never gonna have a kidney stone at this rate. And my boss has taken to calling my beers diuretics. Hah.

It's not easy considering his distribution and his trading history...

Disagree. I love IIPA and Imperial Stout. But I've had plenty of < 5% beer with breathtaking taste and body.

Constantly. Part of his charm.

Like nailing jello to a wall.

Those east coast guys have it a little easier. You might be worse off than I am. Kidding, no one is. Lol.

Enjoy, bro...that's my all-time personal favorite IPA.

Never noticed it until right meow.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Another old old bottle.

nice. How is it?

Happy birthday buddy!


I'm going to say this is amazing and I'm sad because it randomly gushed after the cap was already off. I lost the dregs that I intended to use. The beer is amazing though. My table is clean again. I think the gush is my fault.

@disturbdchemist this is awesome. You're an amazing brewer.
100% Brett Saison.

Whish one is that? Lol must of been the one dry hoped with motueka. Still learning to carb brett. It is a slow creeper. Things of homebrew. I did not add too much suvar but oh well. If you enjoyed it that is all that matters. Hope you will like the sour stout when every you get to it

 

[BUCKNUTS]

Yes I am infinitely quotable lol

 

[SFGiantsFan925]

Having this now. Scraping the bottom of the beer drawer in the fridge. I have a solid buzz going and don't want it to stop!! This is actually really good, bit after December and Xmas it's a bit hard to take. Oh well!! Cheers!! Oh and a horrible pour on my part hahaha.

Both the 2000 Bigfoot and 2002 Old Guardian had lost a bit of carbonation. The Bigfoot held up a little better, very good except for a bit of soy sauce in the flavor. The Old Guardian had a fair amount of papery cardboard going on. My friend/former boss who gave em to me stored em steady at room temp for years, so I'm not shocked in either case. Both were very good though, although the bottle of 09 (I think) Old Guardian he shared with me last year was in much better shape, so I think that one was just past its prime.

A little oxidation kicking in maybe for the old guardaian. Still amazing how beers hold up

Oh, it's oxidation on both accounts, the soy sauce and the cardboard. One is just a bit more graceful than the other. But given the age of these beers, how little oxidation was present really speaks to their quality.

 

[Qhrumphf]

I was going to go to bed because I'm planning on brewing most of the weekend, but f*** it. Drinking my English Cider and then calling it a night.

 

[olotti]

Hey one more here I'm brewing Tomm too Hb of some sort

 

[kev211]

First taste of this funky little guy. I'm really enjoying it! Stones new - Do these hops make my beer look big

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.

Sweet will be keeping an eye out for a thread on progress

It was the motueka one. I don't recall a sour stout. I'm going to look. It was very good. I think I shook the bottle looking at it so it gushed. I believe it is entirely my fault.

Water.
