Wow.
Did you pitch 2 or 3 packs of 05?
Also, going to secondary for the bourbon or what?
What are you drinking now?

It wouldn't of been the first time and it certainly won't be the last time lol
I'm notorious for buying rounds of shots for people who are clearly in no frame of mind/body for shots
It's interesting how similar in volume the scientific sample and the unscientific whiskely chaser are. Happy coincidence I guess.

4 packs.
Going to split the 8 gallons off into a base beer (3-4 gallons) and some 'variants,' bourbon, coffee, vanilla, etc. still working on that game plan.

That was intended.
(no, it wasn't)
I heard somewhere that the most scientific sample possible is approx. 10 oz.
(no, I didn't)

Nice. I need to get my RIS going. Have a barelywine sitting at 10% right now. Wish it was a little higher but I have a ~6gals (didnt boil enough but ok). The RIS will be higher for sure

Use the alternate formula for big beers, supposed to be more accurate

Doesn't get much fresher than being bottled yesterday. Tastes and smells a lot more floral and fruity than ones I've had that were over a week old.

Interesting. Whats the premise behind that?

Not sure but the alternate one is more complex and is supposedly more accurate for high gravity brews compared to the simple formula. Don't ask me, I just work here.

They don't even go into detail... they're just all "Not all scientists agree as to which formula is best, Good luck ****face!"

Cooper's gave my IIPA an 8.66%, the regular one in the link gave the same. alternate formula gave 9.27%? OG was 1.082, FG thus far 1.016.
Here's a simple calculator:
Drink 12oz when sober. If you feel drunk afterwards, then ABV >13%; if you feel buzzed, then ABV > 10%; if you feel slightly woozy, ABV > 8%; otherwise you were drinking water.
Drink 12oz when sober. If you feel drunk afterwards, then ABV >13%; if you feel buzzed, then ABV > 10%; if you feel slightly woozy, ABV > 8%; otherwise you were drinking water.
The longer one is supposed to take real extract into account (actual residual sugar) and real attenuation (actual sugar consumed) and not just apparent extract (FG) or apparent attenuation.
If I recall correctly.
I actually charted the difference once. Don't remember what I did with it, but the they go back and forth up to about 6% and then widen, and above 10% it widens substantially. If you kept the difference between OG and FG the same but raised/lowered (ie 1.060/1.005 and 1.070/1.015) the difference changed as well, but I don't recall it being major.
I'll have to see if I can find my chart. I suppose I could make it again.

Does someone need attention?
Don't ask me, I just work here.
Haha exactly. I guess my RIS I thought was 13.4% is actually now 15.2%. O dear baby jesus!
At least their logic is humorous haha
Edit: The best part of their explanation is that if you beer is 9.5% or 10.25%, you'll be drunk either way so who cares. Thats good science right there!

Found this in the local bottle shop. Reminds me of Sculpin. A little less sweet.

I've heard it's got quite the 'air freshener' quality... you picking any of that up? Maybe yellow grapefruit and pithy oranges? A bit of kumquat maybe? Or roasted apricots that were smashed in a driveway, then rubbed down with pine tree air fresheners?

Start sober. Of course, unless you're drinking water you can only test the ABV on one beer a day...
Don't forget the grapefruit hops ...
More water.

Well, I use an orange oil air freshener so I guess there is a bit of that. The scent is a very faint grapefruit/pith, initially it's rather sweet, and then it leaves the resiny tartness on the tongue.
Just so you know I'm legit, I've attached my LinkedIn profile pic.
Bells two hearted at the San Diego Safari Park! My first two hearted and really nice.
