Just had Bell’s amber/red ale for the first time this evening at world of beer! I was impressed, Two Hearted is a go to though.
 
Still enjoying my Cooper's 'Real Ale' Experiment. Finally bottled my Lime-Ginger Vossy. It's my own brew, and I named it too...tested at 7.8%! :) Have 10 more 750mL bottles as well...woohoo!

Waiting on carb, but it generally looks like a fizzy lime drink ( Start 'moonshine' music here "Hard times, and troubles on my mind..." )

Cheers!🤣

Lots of heavy hitters :) Isn't that what they tell you not to do on brew day because you'll inadvertently muck something up? Yup! Did that :(

This hard cider came from the apples on my tree, and whatever yeast was on the flesh. It's about a year and a half old now, and the harshness is mellowed out a lot.

So this is what I called my Mystery Wheat because I had no idea how it would taste. I changed up another recipe to replace the standard hops with all Citra and it uses a Hefeweizen yeast so I was a little concerned about the potential for clove or banana flavor. No worry. Turned out great. It’s a keeper for sure. Not over hopped, but you can taste them for sure. 🍻
 
I have started a habit while brewing a beer to have a commercial version of the same style kind of as a reminder of the taste profile I am going for. Today I am brewing a dubbel for the first time, and revisiting an old friend that got me started on craft beer in the first place.
