Still chugging along. Gotta get rid of these old IPAs I've got.

A sample of my pineapple heffe to see when it's time to throw the keg in the fridge to stop the yeast from eating the pineapple juice.
 
Enjoying a gravity sample of my Richard Simmons DIPA homebrew; citra, mosaic, and nelson sauvin...all fruity hops. Dry hopping will make this brew unbelievable.
 
So good I'm going in twice.

Glad to hear - I have one in the fridge for later this week!

You suggest dumping it? One vote for dumping it. I know I should. Just wasted money.

Enjoying this before at least two batches maybe three will be dumped

If you're forcing yourself to drink it, then if dump it. Live, learn and move on. Oh - and OlderViscosity is very nice too.

Do you know how fresh it is? Even relatively old (as hoppy beers go) ones have had plenty of hop finish for me. It may just be a simple case of personal taste, though.

I just got it so I don't think it's that old (but the bottle doesn't have a date and I don't feel like going downstairs to check the carrier for a date.). It is improving as it warms though so perhaps it was just too cold.

Home from the Magic Kingdom? Wasn't sure when you posted from dinner and a movie last night. How was the new Star Trek? Heard it was more action movie than Trek from the one review I've read. I want it to be good. Not a full blown Trekie, but a big fan.

Yeah, we got back late on Sunday and felt like being lazy last night. I liked the movie - good story, action and just the right amount of campiness.

I own this day, cause its Tuesday!

Just enjoyed boulevards sixth sense quad. Mighty fine! SWMBO is picking the next brew and helping me study for MBAA associate steward test. Damn fine evening!

Nice beer. Saving one for the next birthday thats been put up for about 2 years
 
Magic Hat Elder Betty.

Never have had any Magic Hat brews, but this stuff really impressed me. Made from the branches of an elderberry tree, which I have never heard of until now. Yes I'm from the south. I don't think they are very common here but I would definitely be willing to make my own if I stumble upon an elderberry tree.

Trying to play kick the keg with my DIPA. I had my ego inflated today when my beer geek neighbor came over and tried it and said I "need to go down to Schnebly's [our local brewery] and teach them how to brew a beer"
 
Mission St. Pale Ale. Tasty beer, brewed by the central coast's finest: Firestone Walker. And only $5.99 for a sixer...can't beat that.

All I got is this.

My bottle shop had a four pack chilling in the back room no one picked up :)

Nice score! Hopefully with Founders here in Houston now, I'll be able to get some in bottles next year's release.

True. Just hate to dump it. I think I fixed what was wrong. My newest batch doesn't have it. Will Dump tomorrow. Will wear a black arm band and play taps while pouring it down.
 
Don't age it too long. Had an 06(?, pinkish wax, screw top) earlier this year and it was well past it's hay day.

Ya I'm sure it won't last long if it makes it until next year I'll be surprised :D it's just always the goal to age it right?
 
Not really diggin' how this pic came out, but I wanted to try something different than what I've been doing.

Those floaties are RIDICULOUS. I want to try that beer so bad. (Especially since you said it tastes like Heady, which ive never had either lol)
 
Wanna swap it for a bottle of black ops?

is black ops good. my local Whole Foods had like 20 bottles sitting in a stack for a couple months, so i figured it wasnt good if no one touched it for that long...
 
a small sample of my port. I bottled a bunch of 6oz bottles for a reason, yo. I wanna pluck out my eyes & pour some into my ocular cavities. then replace my eye bulbs.

Its awesome. I've been seeing a lit of bottles around too. Baffled why, but i guess for 25 a bottle, people dont wanna try it. Great beer, one of my favorites.
