I switched over to Minn/Iowa. Did you see that wild TD snap?Iowa states third stringer looks pretty good today at qb.
It is brown. Bit "muddy" but no diacetyl. Citrus comes through. I'd be happy with this.That seems a bit excessive, but thanks. I'm hoping that's lighting and it didn't go brown in the can.
Was talking about brewing something like this. How was it?
My favorite watering hole sells a NEIPA with citra and mosaic. It's fuqing awesome.
I have almost bought that a number of times just cause of the bottle. I think what's stopped me is the thought of getting a higher gravity beer for same amount of money.View attachment 591657 First time having this. A nice solid cream stout
Looking good! When the opening for your HBT crew??View attachment 591641
The bar is finally in its final place in the basement. Covered in brewing stuff still, but a work in progress.

Looks nice!

..Stone Ruination. Good stuff.
Before that I had the last one of the 3 bottles of Chimay I got in that sampler pack. The Blue one. Wow. Smooth for all that alcohol. I'll bet that one would have been so much better aged. I liked it, btu the white was BY FAR my favorite of the 3. No contest. Ever since I had that white one, I've been trying to find a recipe similar to it so I can brew it this summer. That was outstanding.
Is the white one the Trippel? I can never rememberI like the Trippel the best.
I'm drinking a glass of my Porter I call Porterhouse 2. Can't be much of it left...
Breckenridge American Hefe Proper. Right before that Pyramid's Hefe Weizen. IMHO the Breck wins. (altho, now that I think about it it probably wasn't a fair comparison) Regardless, I'm 2 for 2 with Breckenridge. (Did you get to try that Vanilla Porter yet Dude?)
Thanks for the heads up on the Chimay... I may go it in reverse order and save the White for last!![]()
Ize
my honey ale and I have discovered that I have achieved a very light beer. Not a whole lot of hop character or malt profile. My wife likes it a lot so it is a success. I carbonated it much higher than all my other brews and it is kinda cool watching the bubbles rise.
OK it is a success but something I won't be drinking on a regular basis. I made my wife happy and that was it's intended purpose anyway.
I will have to try an ice cold one after mowing the lawn however.![]()
Only problem I have now is that the honey ale is the only home brew I've got that is drinkable.
EDIT: I better throw that IHA into the fridge and carbonate it soon!
Moylan's Hopsickle. I need to do a side-by-side of this one and Moylan's Double IPA. They are both of Imperial strength, and both highly hopped. I think the Hopsickle is a little more malty sweet, while the IIPA is in your face hops. If I tasted it by itself, I would say it's an IIPA, but on the label it only says " Imperial Ale." Maybe it's in a grey area between Imperial Pale Ale and Imperial IPA? Who cares! It tastes good!:rockin::rockin::rockin:
Avery New World Porter. trying to broaden my horizons a bit so I took a chance on Avery since I've heard good things about them. A nice toasted flavor to it, not too bad for a porter! After reading the label I found out it's dry hopped. Anyone know what kind of hops they use?
Now I'm washing it down with a SN Bigfoot Ale. Mmmmm....lightheaded.
Boulevard wheat. It's a little on the sour side. Nothing to write home about, but not too shabby.
Where'd all the originals go? Things one thinks about when one's team sucks..SWMBO picked up ANOTHER mixed six pack from the mega-booze store, so I've got about 13 commercial brew varieties and 9 different homebrews to choose from.
I keep going to the fridge, but I can't decide what to drink.![]()
