What are you drinking now?

I’ve used both 34/70 and Diamond lager yeast at 54° and can’t really tell a difference.

I’ve traded this with several other members and they all say it’s great.
The most recent was @wepeeler and @Section1
I think @fourfarthing , @PianoMan , @passedpawn and @DrGMG have had it too.

I can confirm the "solidness" of that brew...and a few more?

These two beers after another long day of siding and demo work. Much needed after being in the mid 90’s today.

I should send you one of these to get an opinion on it... I’m still trying to decide if it’s good or not.

Just back from 3 week vacation in Florida, two days left till work. Practicing for retirement.

Smart to use the opaque cup. Seconds of sunlight and I can taste the skunk’s azz.

HB Plum Saison

 

[Immocles]

Not at all what I’d normally go for, but really, really good. Local brewery.

Edit: Is there a secret to pouring from these fat 25ozish crowlers? I’m terrible at it.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Latest HB Stout..8%ish. Oh, brewed with Bread Yeast, long story.

HB Plum Saison

That sounds good for some reason. Real plum? Peeled?

 

[WBB]

That time of year...solid!!

Real plum, pitted not peeled. A large portion from @TwistedGray

Its great. Tart and dry like a saison with brett or bugs, but with a slight fruit element at about 5 lbs of fruit per 3 gallons of wort.

 

[Section1]

Homebrew Hefe for after supper. Wife made a meatloaf tonight that was excellent as always. Wish she would make it more often instead of like twice a year.

Been a while since I posted. Enjoying some delicious haze in my new glassware. View attachment 691375

That think would be broken within a week in my house. That base scares me!

HB Plum Saison

View attachment 691387

Very nice. I bet that plum is a nice touch. @TBC used the same ratio of fruit to beer, and his was spot on.

I have one bag left...kinda wanna do something different with than expected.

It's surprisingly sturdy. Then again, I haven't had the glass long. Maybe I must jinxed it lol. Knock on wood.

Put a british beer on it? I was thinking of doing something caramel-y to try to balance the acidity but wasn't sure how it would play.

I was thinking a brown ale or even an adjunct-free stout.
