This time of year makes a great reason to drink the beer left to age. Enjoyed a HB Barley Wine I bottled on 23 April 2020 with the Bacon Boulangère my wife made for Christmas Lunch/Dinner. The Barley Wine is 11kg Maris Otter and 2kg Carapils. Hopped with Apollo for 99 IBU. WLP-099 Yeast. OG 1.103 and FG 1.016. Ended-up at 11.6% ABV. Not sure if the remaining three bottles will make it past 2023.
Merry Christmas All!

Drinking my Chocolate Cherry Imperial Milk Stout. Despite having the longest name ever, and being a semi-successful first attempt, it's actually good. The brewday had its difficulties, which were lessons learned. Also, in hindsight, I should have used tart cherries instead of sweet as you can barely taste them. They seem to come out more with aging somehow.
Ended-up with 36 500ml bottles. Bottled 3 February 2021 and have six more aging after this one.
- 7.0kg Simpsons Maris Otter
- 0.5kg Warminster Crystal
- 0.5kg Warminster Flaked Malted Oats
- 0.5kg Weyermann Melanoidin Malt
- 0.3kg Warminster Chocolate
- 0.2kg Warminster Roasted Barley
- 0.1kg Weyermann Carafa Special 3
- 0.5kg Lactose sugar
- 570g of Dr. Oetkers (=cheap) cocoa powder in the boil. This was waaaaay too much and ended-up as sludge in the FV and I lost some packaging efficiency. I thought the three containers said 100g and I had my glasses off. My mistake.
- 1.2kg Frozen dark sweet cherries thawed and mashed in the FV, in a nylon bag.

Smoking the Ribs. And a cold one on the side. Merry Christmas All
HB IPA with Nectaron and NZH-107
The dregs of a Robust Vanilla Oatmeal Porter after kegging half and bottling the rest. OYL-405 running through a dark wort is interesting to say the least. Super pleased with how it turned out. Merry Christmas, you filthy animals. And a happy New Year

Wyoming Whiskey bourbon. I’ve never had it before. I like it. This may be my new go-to for medium high shelf small batch bourbon.
Short pour of HB American Wheat Ale. I ate so much today I don’t think I have room for a full pint. May have to switch to whisky.

I got to do a vertical tasting with these a few months ago with '14, '15, and '16. Then, the owner of the place sat down with us holding a jar of marshmallows and a crack torch. He toasted them on toothpicks, dipped them in the beer and passed them around. Awesome stuff.
