What are you drinking now?

[NotSure]

In celebration of National Beer Lovers Day and other made-up holidays pulled out of peoples asses, I'm drinking the last of my HB 2020 vintage Barleywine. Bottled this in March 2020. Bottled about 16 litres. The grist was 9.0 kg Maris Otter, 2.0kg Carapils, Crushed. Apollo Hops at 99 IBU, and used the beast of yeast White Labs WLP 099 Super High Gravity . The result was 11.6% ABV. I will miss this and have a tear in my eye as this ended-up tasting incredible. Will have to brew this recipe again.

Anniversary run. Oyster stout and Couple de Foudre at Tributarys 10th. The Coupe lambic was amazing. Pliny's on draft down the street. Time to walk off the beers at the outlet

I think it's fabulous that Prince Harry and Megan finally found a career that is useful.

Also on our anniversary trip, cheers!

HB saison. 6% and 35 IBU. I think I prefer them at my usual 28 IBU, but this is nice too.

Hydrometer sample of my Amber Ale, with hints of coffee (brown malt). Tastes good and coming in at 5.4% it'll be just right for a fall day.

Brown malt, you say? Interested to know your recipe, unless it's top secret of course.

Festbier from the world's oldest brewery. Nice mouth feel, some maltiness with just a touch of bitter. I like it.

Did you try any of their beers with their own honey? I think they have a Märzen and an IPA with honey.

Of course. I got the recipe from Adam Mills' youtube channel. He's the head brewer at Sonder Brewing in Ohio.

Maris Otter 75.7%
Amber Malt 6.1%
Brown Malt 6.1%
Caramunich I 6.1%
Wheat Malt 6.1%

Magnum 25 ibu at 60 mins.

US-05

This is my third time brewing this. Adam also adds coffee to his, which I tried once, but I prefer a more subtle coffee flavor, which I get using just the malts.

I love their Triple/oak Chardonnay. That's what tried to mimic a few months ago.

Limoncello spritzer. 1 part HM limocello, 2 parts Prosecco, 2 parts seltzer. Lemony, a little sweet, bubbly, refreshing.

That’s what my lady is having now!
She makes the limoncello.
I had a sip of hers. Delicious

Hotel rations…. My go-to diet beer, Bud Zero! Hey at least I get some chips!

Grilling in 100° surely dehydrates you! Three of these, a Monterey Beer, and a Guinness - is my party, I can drink what I want to!

 

[HM-2]

Meant to post this last night. HB experimental lager again. Unfined and unfiltered, clarity on the way to where I want it.

Will definitely be brewing this again, my wife hates 99% of beer but loves this.

Explored Cape Breton Highlands NP this morning before the rains came.

This afternoon we spent some time at Big Spruce Brewing while the rain outside came down sideways. I had their Tripel, Mrs. Stout had a raspberry wheat. Then I had their oatmeal stout on nitro.

Glad you got some nice views and brews. Sorry about the sideways rain. It can be that way…

Last night on Cape Breton Island was crazy. Rain and 110km/h (70mph) wind gusts all night. The tiny house we were in didn't budge. But it was loud af, and we didn't get much sleep.

Working our way back today. Staying a night in a B&B in Fredericton, NB.
Will seek out a brewery for dinner and beers tonight.

For now, polishing off the last of the apple squeezins in the B&B's screened gazebo.

Sure did, all their beers were dialed in, excellent place.
