What are you drinking now?

Good afternoon everyone. Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend if you're in the US.

Enjoying my last Hoptimum. After this it'll be a few glasses of an American Wheat I brewed.

 

[mcbaumannerb]

Nice! You do a decoction?

I tried ... but I definitely had a problem with the temp going high on the steps. Overall a good brew day - hit my gravity on the mark so I won't complain at the moment! Waiting for cool down so I can hit it with O2 (just got an O2 kit and figured this would be a perfect beer to break it in with!

Last of the Stone RIS that I didn't finish last night while I pack the last of the beers for a little Beer It Forward box.

Last bottle (or at least my last bottle) of my WLP645 porter. I hope you can plate and look at what's in the one I send you Channel. Other sources have said WLP645 isn't just brett C and this beer certainly tastes like it has lacto in it to me.

Our FF game is definitely going to come down to Monday night Mark! It's neck and neck so far. I'm hoping Morris puts up half the numbers he did last year against Dallas in tonight's game.

I'll build it up then plate it see what we've got. I was holding onto that one but I'll pop her in the fridge.

No hurry. Not something I need to find out right away, just curious.

Dales pale ale than my HB cascade chinook overload!

Drinking Tired Hands Herbert West. Dipa dry hopped with mosaic and coffee beans.




Excellent beer. Coffee aroma blends nicely with the hops. Well done as usual tired hands!

Yeah - we're going down to the wire this week. If Philips scores a lot of TDs without giving Royal any then you will win.

Having this while I wait for wort to chill. If mine turns out anything like this, I will be very happy!

I saw some zombies yesterday in MPLS. It was the local Zombie Pub Crawl.

Damn my co worker switched shifts with me for this morning , not telling me why. Comes in when it was time for me to get off, the Zombie Pub Crawl was great! Blah, blah, blah. Ticked I couldn't stay out and had a good time last night haha.

GABF Silver Medal winning Sly Fox Grisette

What category? I took this year's GABF results as yet another indicator of how worthless beer comps are. Not that I didn't enjoy Sly Fox Grisette.

 

[dirtybasementbrew]

HB, delicious!!!!! Cascade Chinook overload.

 

[rogerlight]

Homemeade Riwaka red ale. Puts the q in quaffable

Category 70. Belgian/ French Style Ales And yeah, although I'm pretty competitive in most things, when it comes to beer, I'd say stacked rankings are definitely not worth much. I do like this beer though!

How about their cans? The whole top

Wow, so second best saison/BdG/whatever in the whole durn US of A? That's laughable.

Sorry. Didn't mean to touch a nerve.

 

[SFGiantsFan925]

Earlier had Huevos Rancheros with 2x Modelo Especial. Perfect to stat a Sunday morning.

Now having a SixPoint Resin. Delicious!!!

Rockart - Bourbon Barrel Aged The Vermonster
I like this, very strong bourbon flavor. Finishes with a bitterness. Not sure I id call this a barleywine though!

 

[TNGabe]

Sorry. Didn't mean to touch a nerve.

Didn't mean laughable in the pissy sense. No nerve touched, just think that sums up GABF and other comps nicely. I'm sure you know that's not even the 2nd best or 10th best Belgian/French style ale in Philly. Nothing wrong with the beer, but it's only excecptional in it's unremarkability. (Is that even a word?)

There. Fixed my original post.

Sly Fox Grisette. I enjoy this beer.

Who said GABF? Not me.

I enjoyed Sly Fox Grisette, also. Easy drinker.

Of course since Grisette hasn't actually been brewed for about 100 yrs.... bwahaha!

I'm not sure - saw the medal post and was surprised. Don't get me wrong - it's a good beer and very easy drinking, but top 3 nationwide?

I need something to focus my FF induced rage on and GABF is my target!

Got a bottle of Southern Tier Creme Brulee in the fridge for after dinner

 

[mcbaumannerb]

This to go with the bacon cheeseburger unjust about finished cooking!

 

[Cathedral]

This... is interesting. It's crisp and delicious. The hops aren't too present. It tastes like a mead.
