What are you drinking now?

I believe it is, that beer needs more attention. Great beer.

I want to say Lazy Magnolia is one of the few breweries I can get in TN but not NC. Don't think I can get Timber Beast because of our effed laws here. Can't put beer over 6.2 and under 6.2 on the same truck from the distributor because one is liqour store and one is grocery.

That's redonkulous

Shorts Nicie Spicie. Kind of a spicy wit. Lots of lemon, orange, coriander and peppercorn. Pretty good.

 

[LoloMT7]

I'm liking the beer camps! & I love me some dragon's milk.

 

[val214]

Stone R&R Coconut Ipa. Solid ipa very faint coconut taste.

 

[Leubega]

That Denog is definitely worth a shot. I finally got my hands on a four pack Lazy Magnolia Backwoods Belgian. Meant to send one your way but couldn't find it in time. I owe you for all the delicious west coast IPAs so it'll be in the next westbound package

No worries man, I'm more than happy to snag that love buzz from you. Lemme know whenever you want some more west coast hops. I'll be free for more trade stuff in mid September

Midnight maple wheat. Enjoying a nice cool night and a fire, in the hammock with the wife,

I think this is my favorite rock at our place, lots of color

So, opening a 750 of 8.5% BdG by myself is a good idea now, right?

 

[WesleyS]

You're going to love NZ hops, especially Nelson.

I'm looking forward to it. I'm thinking of doing a 50/50 barley/wheat grain bill and letting the Nelson just dominate the profile of the beer.

 

[tyzippers]

Real nice night! Just finishing up the Dragon's Milk and already watched Pulp Fiction. Now watching Happy Gilmore. These films are like comfort food. Add in the milk and two Yuenglings before it, I'm feeling good!

Yes, very good idea.

 

[WesleyS]

That looks magnificent. Not sure how it tastes not a big kiwi guy but that is one beer id judge by its cover and would love to try.

Can you describe its flavor profile a la beer advocate beergeek style?

I don't think he's using any kiwi fruit in the Kiwi Red he's talking about. Instead I think he's calling it that because of the New Zealand hops used in it.

I'm going to call my imperial stout 'blew beaumont's brains out' (Jackie Brown reference) and the coffee version 'DNS' after the scene with Tarantino and Mr Wolf in Pulp fiction. 'You don't have to tell me how good my coffee is, I'm the one that effin buys it.' That's how I felt when I roasted coffee. My wife tells me I'll be the same if we open a brewery.

 

[TNGabe]

Yes, very good idea.

Whew, that's all the help I needed.

 

[Channel66]

That's what friends are for! Enablers be enabling.

 

[Leubega]

Been on a huge kombucha kick but this is just plain weird. A lot sweeter than average kombucha but has that pronounced tart finish. Can't say I'd buy it again but worth giving a shot

Markowski hits it on the head when he says 'a unique candy apple sweetness'. I think I've sat on this almost a year. I can see it easily improving for five and perhaps beyond.

This is a beer to me like Westmalle Dubbel. If you can't appreciate the simplicity, you're an idiot.

I'm gonna be fully enabled after this. Might hafta pick up where I leave off when I dough in 6 hrs from now when my wife is leaving for work.

Gavroche is 80 Munich 20 pils and 20 sugar. I'm planning on 88 Vienna-ish local 6 row, 4 rye, 3 CM III, 2 flake barley, 2 rolled oats, 1dbb. Brett (hopefully ecy04) and lacto to bottle condition after wlp 072 primary.

Bet your ass it is! Having New Holland Beer Hive Tripel bomber 8.5% tastes like fresh honey, soooooo gooood! A nice tartness on the finish. Probably gonna pick another up to age.

I love simple beers I really like letting the process, yeast, critters, woods what have you play through a simple malt bill.

Abt12 is an ungodly simple beer, mostly just 2 row, pils and dark sugar. From what I understand they don't even use special b But it's one of the most sought after beers on the planet.

That sounds delicious though.

Ahhhhh...guess they give off a kiwi like flavor/aroma. That makes sense C.Y. Thank you.

The real question is, after this bomber of tripel. Is opening a Clown Shoes RIS a good idea !? He he he

Yeah, it's trying to figure out the interplay of simple and complex. I think petrus pale is great and it's supposedly just pils, but I always feel like I want to build the body a little more. I like dry, but not thin. Have you looked into the amount of glycerol different sacc strains produce. Chad Y says brett doesn't make glycerol which leads to thin mouthfeel without spelt, rye, oats, etc. I've guessed that maybe saison strains produce more glycerol than other sacc, hence the enhanced perception of body in very dry beers.

Drinking some mote boulevard - tasting room. Mid coast ipa .. and its damn good. Hoppy happy hoppy

Throw some of that in our trade next week!

Oh you know it! I already have a few set aside for you. Hehehe

 

[MindenMan]

I am drinking an American Brown that I brewed on July 5th using ESB 1968 yeast. It's a fairly big beer having an O.G. of 1.066 and an ABV of 6.4. It's still a little rough now as I accidentally let the ferm temps get into the 70's. I left it in the primary for 30 days before bottling, so I'll bet in another 2 or 3 weeks, it will be very smooth drinking. I hope.

 

[tripplehazzard]

This!



Boulevard test beer. Tasting room west side rye ale .. so creamy! Damn good one guys

 

[Fuzzymittenbrewing]

Couldn't resist the call of the Blaecorn Unidragon RIS. A phenomenal beer.

 

[Swarley88]

Thanks Leubega. This one was really excellent. I wish I had more to age a bit :s. Had a couple Mercenaries after and now a Brew Free or Die.
