Lunch beer. May be the most unreadable label in the history of beer labels. Beer isn’t bad, though.
What are you drinking now?

Early jump on the weekend beer. Casita Brewing Altbier. Like it a lot and very easy drinking. Darker than I seen most Alts at but they used MO as the base along with Munich and biscuit and some carafa malts.
Gotta jump on this when in a mix pack at the local packy. Very good beer
A favorite

That sounds similar to mine. I like mine. If you like yours keep rocking it. It may just not be a competition beer!I got the scoresheets today. The biggest flaw in my Schwarzbier according to the 2 scoresheets seems to be an astringency issue. One judge commented "bitter chocolate" and "high hop bitterness". BeerSmith calculated my IBUs at 22.8, which is towards the low end for style. I added 1.5 oz of 3.7% Mittelfrueh at 60 min and 1.25 oz of the same at 20 min.Looks like I might have to play around with the grain bill and dark grain additions in my BIAB mash.

This is a cool beer. Different. Hoppy, malty with a little roast, but very smooth and sessionable. Ive always seemed to appreciate Allagash's unique approach to brewing. Still wanting to try one of their Coolship beers which I don't think distribute that I know of.

Jameson Old Fashioned with the "Three Wise Men" ... Angostura, orange and Peychauds bitters
Last of the three Mind Haze variations. My opinion, now that I’ve tried all three, is that of “underwhelment.” Not a real word? Then I’m coining it. I just don’t see any point of these. Regular Mind Haze is okay I guess, Double Mind Haze is where it’s at as far as I’m concerned. That’s the MH sweet spot. These variants do nothing for me.
First Time trying a sweet water. Not bad

Their coolship program is good close to being really good. Their brewery visit is fun and you can go crazy with their special releases and selection. The price leans on a little expensive tho.
Not sure where you are but you can usually find their coolship if u get their normal distro. I bought a ton of their coolship and lost it somewhere down in my basement. That's a good thing
I'd strongly advise trying their Fox Leap. Kinda like a cherry coolship.

This beer is 10 years old. Bottled 9/2011.
Back when Clown Shoes was brewed by Mercury Brewing (Ipswich).
I got snipped today.

Tis the season. With all the chatter about “Oktoberfests”, “festbiers”, and Märzens, I thought I would sample some examples. This is very good.

Have that beer and get a frozen bag of peas down under and rotate the peas every so often and you will be good to go.

Thanks man! I’m in NC and we seem to only get their core beers typically.Their coolship program is good close to being really good. Their brewery visit is fun and you can go crazy with their special releases and selection. The price leans on a little expensive tho.

This beer is equally as good as the last… almost identical. Hopefully my Märzen that’s fermenting right now tastes this good.
Very good beer first time I’ve had this as well

Had that done years ago… it’ll feel better when it quits hurting.
HB dunkelweizen. Super disappointed since I managed absolutely zero yeast flavors (Munich classic dry). It’s not a bad tasting beer, but just not a dunkelweizen. Back to the drawing board, I guess. Perhaps I’ll try that fancy new omega bananaza yeast next time.
You’re late to the Oktoberfest party. I hold out as long as I can, but I start stocking fest biers, Oktoberfests, and marzens at the end of august. Paulaner is one I get each year, without hesitation.

Waiting to keg my dunkelweizen... I used the same yeast as my spring weissbier... hopefully it will be good. I'm in fermenter from 9-19
HB ipa.
I wish you luck!
This was my fourth shot at a dunkelweizen. Its a style I love, but I can't seem to get any banana notes out of the yeasts that I use. And its the banana that Im really shooting for. None have been dumpers at all. The first two (WL300, WY3068) were mostly clove, and firmly OK. The third was silky smooth (danstar wheat or Munich, cant remember the name) but still lacked any banana esters. This fourth one (danstar classic Munich) has zero clove, zero banana, and just tastes like a chewy dark beer. Still drinkable, but just not at all what I am looking for. The interesting thing is that I made one hefeweizen extract brew back when I was still doing extract kits, and it was oozing with that banana flavor. Maybe I'm just over thinking it after having some experience and just need to severely under pitch and abuse the hell out of the yeast like I was back then.
Nightcap
A few more tonight with a friend who stopped by. Good times.
I loved this one as well. My Costco isn't carrying it this year.
You'll be fine in a few weeks. Make sure to get the OK from your doctor before you test things out. I had a buddy who tried things out after only a few days and it was bad news bears for a while.
Lunch beer and chicken tacos.
Really good today.
