Chinook mmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!Tapout said:A Chinook IPA...my own brew, of course...whilst I wait another 23 minutes to add a hop addition to me NB SMASH American Ale boiling away. It's a good day! Cheers!
I should probably stop posting same old chit! Sixpoint, what else! I have 2 cases and the first one is almost gone. I'm probably going back to F F exit 16 half way through the game
Ridire said:Another HB IPA while Tigers v Red Sox starts. Might switch to Atwater Vanilla Java Porter next.
Anyone ever try this Atwater porter? May be my new favorite "dark beer". Stuff is GOOD.
I bought it on a whim. I was cleaning out my basement bar yesterday and loaded all my empties into the Jeep and headed to Kroger. I had about $10.50 in empties, which was about the cost of a sixer of this stuff, after deposit. So glad I picked it up. Wife loves it, too.NIZZLE said:Yes great beer!
Started with coffee with breakfast, then water while mashing and now onto some beer while waiting for boil to start.

EDIT: them being local, I wonder if they would share a scaled down recipe with a home brewer.
TNGabe said:Sounds like a nice day. Your brewing that abbey beer? Did you say dubbel? I'm drinking brown saison I bottled this week, not really ready, but I new it was carbed and settled and was interested in trying it. Tried to adjust AA on the bittering for storage and such and maybe went a tad high. Plus my little hop scale croked so I was using the bigger one which isn't super accurate for small quantities. No brewing today, it's round two of canning tomatoes. Maybe, if I'm taken over by the spirit of a more motivated person I'll get one of the two batches bottled that need it. Probably get two brews in later this week, so should be an assortment of test batches headed your wat for feedback soon.
I'm brewing a quad this time - sick amount of sugar in it. If I can find some nice looking figs at a decent price I may use them in the secondary - we'll see.
Have fun with the canning! And any time you want to send some beer for feedback I'm more than willing to help out!
Did you get some syrup or just using sugar?
I wouldn't say that canning is fun, but we put some tunes on and drink some good brews. We've got a good setup and a canner that goes on my homebrew burner so we can get a bunch of jars done per batch and it's not too bad. Need to get tomato sauce made to put the eggplant parmeseasn together, too.
NIZZLE said:I bet they would how far are you from the brewery?
Syrup this time because I need to the color. Any tedious job can be made better by adding some good tunes
I just made my first batch of sauce for the fall a couple of weeks ago - I do it six gallons at a time
Syrup is (or should be) the main flavor contribution as well.
Do you freeze or can your sauce?
My guess...15 miles. I'm in Macomb County.
It will be - the grain bill is just 8 pounds each of 2-row and pilsner.
I don't have a canning set-up so I freeze it now. I use plastic tubs that the local store sells side salads in - plus I use cool wHip containers.
