What are you drinking now?

My treat for hiking up Mount Hochfelln. Kaiserschmarrn mit Apfelkompott and Franziskaner Dunkle Weisse - beside the stunning view of course....

Hiking season started!

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

Lent....and then they asked if I'd like the bratwurst...Starkbierfest

 

[leedspointbrew]

Hoppy witbier at Obscura Brewing, Cape May Courthouse NJ. Interesting; almost like a white ale.

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Got home from work, and back to work in the garage, starting the clutch replacement on my wife's fun car, some liquid encouragement to help things along, probably just draining fluids for today since we have plans this afternoon. Hb Irish stout.

 

[Rich_O]

Something from south of the border to start tonight’s beers

One of my favourite beers from The Kernel. Hops change with every batch (ABV also varies). This particular version is single hopped with Columbus

Two of the 4 kegerator lines are empty, the other two running low.

I might have to brew a batch inspired by this next weekend (Recipe is widely available online)

 

[Chris Cardona]

Hibiscus Key Lime Sour. Very nice

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Hb Irish stout, went for the nitro pour on this one, made a coolant mess in the garage as expected, they put the radiator drain cock in the dumbest effin place, whatever, it's draining and I'm walking away for today, floor dry absorbant is my friend haha..

 

[BrewZer]

Not now but last night. Opened a test 16oz bottle of the Black Pearl's Revenge to compare to an actual Piraat ale.

Sadly, the Piraat ale was much better than its clone. But both were good; the clone is still carbonating, but is super clear in the bottle and is very palatable even at room temperature and very little carbonation.

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

Maine......I'll go with this beer from somewhere called California. Damn this beer is clear. #7. Pliny double hopped

HM Cranberry Apfelwein.
I swear there were marvelous teeny bubbles before that first sip.

 

[MaxStout]

Having a rum breezer. Dark rum, Domaine de Canton, OJ. Getting my DV of vitamin C.

 

[Chris Cardona]

HB Hazy IPA. Dry hopped with Nectaron and McKenzie hops

Refreshing Irish lager. Tasty.

Wow, what can you say? ANOTHER terrific German Pilsner!

König Pilsener has a name stylized in the more Northern spelling “Pilsener”, but it’s the same great stuff. König-Brauerei (King Brewery to us serfs) is based out of Duisburg-Beeck, about an hour’s drive North of Cologne and conforms to the 1516 Reinheitsgebot Beer Purity Law. Gebraut mit König-Hefe und Deutchem Hopfen! My kind of brew!

This is a great Pilsner, and not found very often here in the “States.” It’s a standard 4.9% ABV brew, but really has a nice malt backbone to go along with the upper-medium Pilsner hopping levels. REALLY makes for a delicious Pilsner. I’m sitting here drinking and munching on my palate-cleansing unsalted walnuts and I can’t believe how fast this scrumptious half-liter has disappeared. I even checked if there was more in the can, it’s like BIG TIME GONE!!!! Prost!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Grodziski for me and the pork roast.

 

[camonick]

Definitely not the best hazy I’ve had and certainly not the color I expected.

 

[Rish]

HB stout

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Weekend begins now.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

HB WCIPA. Man, going to miss this Christmas Ale..

 

[camonick]

This is very good

 

[bailey mountain brewer]

Feel like I'm fly sparging these coffee grounds for my wife this morning haha. OT coffee

 

[loganklaas]

Last night. Ugly Fish IPA after adding 50 ounces of raspberries to the hard lemonade. The IPA was from a Flash kit. Not bad for a ten minute brew day. Needs more time to carbonate.

 

[MaxStout]

A cuppa home-roasted coffee (Papua New Guinea), before I go crush grain and start my brew day. Going to be ambitious and brew a full 5 gal batch of Doppelbock BIAB on the stove top in an 8 gal kettle. The mash will fit if I hold back a couple gallons.

I'm going to a parade this afternoon and forsee many of these in my future.

For now, cheap coffee in my daddy mug.

 

[pshankstar]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted. Life’s been insanely busy. So much going on there’s usually not much time to have a beer. This last night around 11pm after being on the go all day with the family.

 

[ClaudiusB]

Happy Sunday, beer lovers
A homemade German Red for breakfast.

To maintain tradition, drinking a Helles while brewing one. However the only Helles I have is the one about to get kegged.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

My Day Tripper wheat beer.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

My Double Maxim brown ale. Poor head retention but carbonation is ok.

I’ve never brewed a helles before. Your inspiration will cause me to brew one as my next lager

 

[Dgallo]

Tried one of my funk project beers last night that has been cellaring for over a year. This beer is named Hopped Up & Funky. It’s a a golden ale that was fermented with Bootleg Biology’s Rare Barrel culture. It was then aged on Pinot Grig conditioned oak spiral, pineapple, mango, and Guava and dryhopped with Motueka.

Cool beer. Quite sour but still has some great fruit flavor. This culture produces a bit acetic acid, which I’m not crazy about, but overall it will be cool beer to pull out during shares

 

[pshankstar]

Coaching late games today (5 & 6 pm) so why not have one while I prepare a crockpot meal. Hopefully tonight I can enjoy a few more beers after the tournament wraps up.

As I've gotten older, the lower ABV easier drinking beers tend to be more and more appealing to me. I tend to just buy the 8%+ABVs anymore. And somehow, I still get fat!?!

HB Nut Brown

Well that was quick.

 

[South Arm Brew]

Cleaning beer lines and kegging my Hazy IPA. This was a FG measurement pour. Also a beer I found at ALDI’s. Not bad…

 

[MaxStout]

Finished brew day, 5 gal batch of Doppelbock. Volume turned outok--5.5, but OG way low. Shooting for mid-80s, came out 1.070. Maybe I should call it Underator.

Having some apple squeezins.

Or maybe it's an Einzelbock?

 

[MaxStout]

Or maybe it's an Einzelbock?

Yeah, bjcp says 1.072+ for Doppel. Just under that, so I'll call it a Dunkels Bock.
