Sounds like I need to stock up so I have something to offer the ladies that come over...
Do it! Do it!

How do we know she's a lady? Maybe that's what's got Nizzle all pizzled. :D I should not be posting, I should be outside trying to make sure my 15 gallon boil stays in the keggle. Not likely. Pulled a couple gallons off to the stove.
I'm a lady. Well, I'm female. Pretty sure no one has ever been so gracious as to call me a lady. :eek:

You're brewing 15 gallons? Do you split your batch to ferment?
 
Had a Green Bullet(have been more impressed with their regular offerings)aroma was a little disapointing in my bottle- but its along the lines of Hoptimum and Hopslam basicly as far as a 10% IIpa. I have my favorate doubles which they are not part of. Im not really big on doubles either though.

Also had a Suede-Stone collaboration.IMperial porter. Its good its aroma and flavor reminded me somewhat of Shipyards smashed blueberry almost but bolder/bitterer and chocolatly roastier. But its an imperial porter and oddly got more dark berry than jasmin or at least the perception of bluberry of the mix of jasmine and rich chocolate/roast. I would swear,to me it was like a dark berry(blueberry) porter.
 
Not bad. Could probably use some age though.

Another fill-up of Highland Park 18. Crack!!!!!!!!!
 
In about an hour, after the kids are sleeping deeply, I will be drinking one of my Imperial Stouts. These are special brews indeed. I normally drink one beer in the evening before bed. Sometimes two. With these, it's one and only one, and then only on weekends. Gravity dropped well below what I expected when I batched these. I was planning on a 12% brew with final gravity being around 0.20. It dropped to 0.08 instead. Definitely not a session beer.

Speaking of session beers, my take on an American Lager should be ready to try out any time now. It is definitely a beer brewed outside of the box. I'll post about it once I get around to trying it out.

First taste of brine from my Dill-Caraway Sauerkraut. Already fantastic. I see a meeting in about a week and half involving this and a huge chunk of corned beef :ban:

And some rye bread and Russian dressing.
 
HB wheat ale that had peaches and dried apricots that I sliced up and soaked in everclear added to secondary.

I've been tempted to do this, but at $10 a bomber (in Dallas, TX), I'm hesitant to add anything to Warlock because it's a great stout by itself.
I'm fat. Adding ice cream to anything at any cost is what I do.

And I think I paid like $9 a bottle. It wasn't much warlock "wasted" and I still drank it.
 
The first bottle of my re-formulated 'Saison of the Witch'. While it is only been conditioning a week, it's already nicely carbonated, and has wonderful mix of noble hop bouquet and saison funk; a bit darker than I had intended, but still a beautiful orange color. The body is a bit big and the taste a bit too sweet for the style, though overall it's shaping up nicely.

Well, more like 14.5 preboil. I'm doing a 12 gallon batch to ferment in two 6.5 carboys. I'm only aiming for 5.5 in each, but with whole hops and extra protein from wheat, flaked barley, and 6 row base, my overall brewhouse efficiency isn't great.

You're super fast! I even edited. Haha
I speak only the truth my man.

That's what she said!

Decent, not better than Narwhal and triple the price.

I've enjoyed the other beers I've had from that brewery and think Narwhal is a hot boozy mess so I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around that.

Need to grab another beer. Side boil added back to kettle and 60 minute hops are in. I've been liking sterling as a a bittering hop and an tempted to stick with it for the stirpool, but the galaxy/mosaic/nelson combo in the freezer is calling my name. I think I'll save those to dryhop maybe half the batch and for ... who am trying to kid. This is why I need to finalize the recipe before I start drinking, especially liqour. :drunk:
