HB Bitter - Golden Promise and small amounts of Biscuit, Honey, and Pale Chocolate; EKG and Fuggles; wlp 007 (Dry English)- starter from nearly year-old jarred/fridged stout slurry; about 4.5%abv after bottling. Enjoying quite a bit this evening.
Can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.
I really need to work on a session IPA recipe.
Not thrilled with the base beer but this hop oil sure adds a nice punch

Agree, I've been wanting to brew one for a while now.
It's hot so this for now
Because working on one my company vehicles on a holiday weekend in the heat sucks, especially because I effing hate drum brakes, and I think these were shot.. screw drum brakes.

I’m drinking my HB version of Rooster’s Yankee. It’s a British Golden Ale with Cascade hops.
Getting ready for the bbq. Taster of the Rye Barley Wine. The Brett adds some really nice complexity and sourness to the BW.
2nd pic is the DIPA Brewday From Hell. Everything that could go wrong, did. Stuck mash, leaky chiller, clogged filters, hot wort into fermenter, dead yeast, the list goes on. Yet, it is nicely bitter and citrusy. Looks like swamp water, but tastes amazing.

Pineapple Wheat (strong Wheat ale w/ T58 + Great Value Pineapple Soda). Inspired by the Homebrew Bible's "Sodapop Saison".
Kronenbourg 1664. French wheat beer. Subtle orange and coriander, a little sweet, pretty tasty and refreshing.
Well, after two drives across the country, my hairdresser's car was badly in need of some attention. Stripped, clayed, paint corrected, compounded, two passes of polish, and a quick and dirty coat of wax this morning. That was enough for one day, I'll strip it again next weekend, seal it, then double wax it.
I deserve some beers.
Latest batch of Panther Piss, kegged late last week. Still showing some haze.
The Helles that I actually like because I made it too hoppy. Really impressed with the Heidelberg malt. It's good stuff and I'm toying with the idea of buying a sack.
And that contemporary blonde ale that I made. I should use Sorachi Ace more frequently...but it scares me.
My shiny hairdresser's car. It's not slow, it's a momentum car, okay?!

Watching the Indy 500
Not the world's best IPA but in the bargain bin for $10/12pk! Not awful at 9.5%, I'll take it! Grabbed all the Stone 8% stouts, previously mentioned, also. I have 6-6pks at $8/ea!
HB Zappa Kellerbier and some hot pretzels from the freezer section at Aldi.
Drinking some beers at my brother’s house. Waiting for my nephew’s birthday party.
Month 4 of the Beermeister32 reduction program (46 lbs to date) brings us Guinness Non-Alcoholic Draught beer.
The funny thing about drinking Guinness in the first place is the comments you get from non-beer drinkers – Wow, that Stout must be a heavy beer, how can you drink it? We all know that it is actually a medium alcohol beer, nothing heavy at all – very drinkable – and so is this Non-Alcoholic version. Hey, it’s dark and light – REALLY light!!!
Delicious and roasty, old Arthur Guinness got around taxes by using roasted Barley instead of roasted Barley malt. How much taxes for no alcohol? My kinda guy!
The current presentation has the foaming pill inside the can to give an approximation of Nitrogen/CO2 gas on tap. It really works well, providing an interesting moving pattern in the glass similar to an old school beer pump engine, and a rich and fine head of foam which lasts and lasts – all the way to the bottom of the glass!
The only – and I mean ONLY area needing improvement is the carbonation levels. I know that a lot of these ales are served on tap with very low Nitrogen/CO2 levels, but I have to say, after drinking 4 of these, the foaming pill or whatever, something is causing these cans to produce beer that is nearly flat.
A great “diet” ale to enjoy! Cheers!

$1.70 bargain bin deal
I remember about twenty years ago, when the first low carb beers started coming out, Consumer Reports ran an article on low carb beers and to my surprise and delight, they actually included Guinness pub draft nitro cans. It placed highly in their test. They only knocked it for being slightly higher in carbs than the specially made, enzyme treated, low carb products.
I thought that was pretty cool.
Another glass of Panther Piss. About four-five pours over the last few days seems to have blown all the rubbish out of the Flotit 2.0 filter and it's pouring a little clearer. That's an annoying characteristic of the Flotit when you use a pressure transfer.
I said nice things about Bestmaltz' Heidelberg malt earlier and contemplated buying a sack. It'll have to go into the bin currently occupied by the Riverbend Chesapeake Pils that made this beer. It's also a really, really good malt—and quite a bit cheaper! Maybe I need to buy a new Vittles Vault?

Good to the last drop.
That's a pretty good party trick and, if you think about it, a far better way to organize that beverage.

Duplicate, sorry
The gravity of the situation requires it this way. I should an uncola glass for this next time.
Back at the city house for awhile. HB Cream Ale.
HB Belgian Dubbel that I brewed at our club’s group brew day in March. Won a gold medal at the 2024 Hogtown Brew-Off!
