What are you drinking now?

[Rish]

Cullman, AL kölsch. Tasty but not as clear as I'd expect. I've seen some photos of this that were quite clear so maybe it's this batch?

 

[camonick]

Nebraska beer.

 

[camonick]

Now a very good HB Amber ale from @Section1 . I like this. I actually think ambers are kind of a hard style to get to taste right. This one is right.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

HB strawberry booch.

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

My favorite local brewery, this is a great example from them. Trippy label.

HB West Coast triple IPA 11.5% with whole cone centennial for bittering/aroma, and Azacca /Cascade evenly split for a 1 lb dry hop.

How did it turn out? It looks great.

All I have to say is, "friggin finally". WLP833 Bock yeast. A bit more malty than I wanted, but it's clean as a whistle. Thanks to @jdauria for advice on the fermentation!

my Niagara wheat beer basically an American wheat beer with Maple syrup and Honey malt 7.0% ABV.

Did a beer exchange on the ship, so I got several LA and AL beers to try. (Ship departed from New Orleans so there are a lot of southerners on the cruise.)

Lemme know if it makes you “thump”, please. just seems like an odd name for a beer. Nothing disparaging intended toward anyone.

And water with Walt. Waiting to get a picture with Spider-Man.

A lot of Kolsch recipes use wheat for head retention and a little mouthfeel. Looks like they might do that. I'm guessing maybe 10% wheat.

HB Grodziskie. New glass, very pretty:

Same glass, different beer. HB adjunct lager:

Some recipes do, but Kolsch yeast is a notoriously bad floccer, so it could just need more conditioning. A local brewery by me just released a Kolsch that was "cold conditioned at length", and it's still hazy. I was shocked, because all their lagers are brilliantly clear.

Tasty pils.

LA, that's Lower Alabama, right?

Bottled my Belgian Dark Strong earlier today and been thinking about everything I could have done wrong since I finished. So it's definitely time to RDWAHAHB Black IPA.

Today’s chug is a pint, er I mean 14.9 fluid ounce, 440 ml can. Wow, what the heck is going here, has squeeze-flation hit the beer industry? I’m enjoying the 16.9 oz/500 ml cans of everyone else’s beers, and I have to put up with this wimp-sized can? C’mon fellas, I’ll pay the 25 cents more for a regulation sized can. Plus you sell more beer.

This ale pours well, a solid 1 finger head, great lacing. Beer is surprisingly clean for a nut brown ale, great caramel note. Beautiful copper-brown color, quaffable and delicious. I noticed some similarities to a lager I’m familiar with, HB Dunkel, which was surprising because one is an ale, the other a lager. A bit different, but play the same role, if Bevmo is out of one, grab the other!

5.0% ABV, Samuel Smith gets thumbs up! Let’s get those cans up to regulation size please!

You really need to join the next FotHB...not only because your beers look delicious, but also because your critiques are almost J. Peterman catalog description quote worthy. .

Yep. My next brew day I'll be brewing a Kolsch. Never brewed one before so I researched some recipes and decided on one that happens to have 4.8% wheat malt.

Tell me about it, brewed a Kolsch on March 3rd, has been cold crashing/lagering for almost 20 days now and is still hazy. Don't need gelatin very often, but going to have to use it on this one.
