What are you drinking now?

[mcbaumannerb]

Well done Channel! :fro:

 

[CliffMongoloid]

Feeling sick today.... Think i got what's going around- tea while suffering through work

 

[Kolsch_Meister]

Belgium Trippel from a Brewer's best kit. Not half bad..

 

[finsfan]

NEW BEER FROM TALLGRASS Y'ALL!!!!! Zombie Monkie is a robust porter with 35 IBU's sounds good to me! I think they just made another IPA (India Porter Ale) Cant wait to try these after work! They have been working on a porter since 2007 I guess and this is finally one they loved. The can even has extra grip for when you are fleeing from zombies. this is an Apocalypse ale apparently

That's all well and good, but does it have a pop-able air hole so you can chug it faster? Or a vortex opening to spiral it down your gullet quicker?

They arent that mainstream yet haha I think they did that to really push this as being an "apocalypse" beer

My 3724 Saison.

 

[TNGabe]

Last of my 3/4 dubbel.



Finishing up the boil on an autumn saison. Heritage base (my local Vienna-ish 6 row), flaked barley, cmIII, de bittered black, & turbinado. Bittered with some brewer's gold I need I use up and some late additions of crystal.

Found a crack in the pinch on my IC. I'd been worried about it for a while. Can't believe it didn't ruin my last batch and that I spotted it before this one. 25' prechiller to the rescue!

 

[Cathedral]

I am currently drinking GNC Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 Platinum Edition. (Well, that's mostly what it's called. I'm sure I'm missing a few adjectives.) Hulk smash!

 

[TNGabe]

Another sample from my bíere de Noel.



Seems to have worked through second sugar addition and is around 11.8 now and at 1.032. I think the wlp072 will drop it a few more points. Might be getting a 10 gallon apple brandy barrel. If so, I think I'll have to rebrew this and put in the barrel with Brett anamola and some more lacto for a while. Can't believe I made a a beer that's pushing 12% in under two weeks that is smooth and tasty at 74 degrees straight from the fermenter.

I have these coming this week, hopefully, in my Beer of the Month Club my wife got me a subscription to:

Matt Brewing Company - Saranac Harvest Ale (NY)
Tuckerman Brewing Company - Pale Ale (NH)
Brouwerij Timmermans - Bourgogne des Flandres Brune (Belgium)
McAuslan Brewing - St-Ambroise Pumpkin (Canada)

Plus, I've got my first homebrew bottle conditioning. Been going for a week now, so I'll probably have a test bottle next week.

TNGabe's peach Berliner. Wow, this is a sour mofo! I had to cut it with a little grape juice, very nice beer. I need to do a sour mash now.

 

[hoppedup75]

Love this beer!!!!

You get acetic? I'm thinking it's malic acid from the peaches and not having lacto after heating to convert it.

Gabe's blackberry Berliner. Quite tart (but not overly so,) definitely pick up the blackberry and a subtle bit of funkiness in the finish. Did you add anything other than the sacc?




I could easily drink the whole growler this way, but will add a touch of simple syrup to the next pour to see what happens.

Glad you like it, the peach has the real pucker factor. It's got cantillon brett in there, too.

Okay - that's the touch of funk I'm getting then. Same brett that you added to that saison?

 

[Spraentart]

Holy Stout. This is as thick as oil. It is quite tasty as well.

 

[Aschecte]

Saisonical Primus !!!! this was my first beer made with WL Saison II yeast which ws supposed to be a bit heavier on the esters than Saison I but, I'll be honest and I pushed this beer into the 80's and it is still to my and also my beer clubs palate refined balanced and a damn good Saison.... now if we could only bring the summer back.

 

[Billy-Klubb]

store bought kombucha. might have my last 3 Beans when we get back home from a friends house.

 

[nukebrewer]

First taste of my El Dorado single hop IPA. It's really quite good, but not quite what I wanted it to be. It's got the tropical fruit and candy-like character I've heard is characteristic of El Dorado, but it didn't ferment as dry as I was shooting for so the hop character is a bit muted. Good points are that the bitterness level is pretty much perfect. A bit of an edge, but not off putting and moderately strong. The mouthfeel is also a winner because, for the first time in an IPA, I used oats. It's a bit weird to get the smooth creaminess in an IPA, but it works well.

Same as 32B, not sure I've seen you post that. One you had the other day was wyeast brux.

 

[mcbaumannerb]

Sweetened this time. Tones the tartness down as expected, but mutes the flavors as well. Definitely prefer the full tartness!



And that first glAss went great with the stroganoff I made with the leftover roast! :rockin:

 

[DisturbdChemist]

I think its a good time to open this while making some tacos.

I don't even know what any of that means, haha. It is a little too tart to be a pleasant drinker, a little sweetness and it balances out. I will prep up some simple syrup this weekend for the other one.
