A 500ml bottle of a Belgian-style dubbel that I brewed in November. This is the last of the plastic bottles. Pilnser malt, D-90 candi syrup, German hops, K1V-1116 yeast. Poured gently into a 600ml beaker, which just barely held all the foam. I probably won't open another bottle until Easter, then they will go quickly. I need to brew this again using homemade dark candy sugar. (I made a pound of it in December to see if I could)
 
Did ya ever buy something just because the label was cool? Saw this in the liquor store today and had to try it. Yeah, it’s just industrial ethanol, aged for a few years in some kind of wood, with the signature of someone who used to be famous, (John Rich of Big and Rich; I’m surprised there isn’t a tagline on the label reading ‘Save A Horse, Drink My Whisky”), but it ain’t that bad. Hey, it’s got a real cork, so it must be good, amirite?

HB Amarillo Red Rye Ale. Essentially a grain box clear out brew with some pretty old grain. FG was pretty high and I wasn't expecting much from it, but it's not bad even after only two weeks conditioning. It'll be interesting to see what it's like in another couple of weeks.

Didn't know they still made that one.

I'm having one of the last of my Imperial Nut Brown Ales. Didn't get a pic and the glass is almost empty now.
It seems they don't sell it by itself. These I got in a mixed case with 5 of their other beers. Last year it was available in a mixed 12 pack.
