Clone finished, but still nursing the last of the Arrogant Bastard bomber. And while it may still be too little too late, nice to see the Caps playing some decent hockey tonight.
 
That's the only way (I think) you can have a pale stout. It's good lots of coffee and chocolate. This brewery like using adjuncts. A lot. I think that's their thing.


I enjoyed it too, but I guess I'm not sure why it even needs to be called a stout. Makes it a little gimmicky. There was some mention of 'stout malt' on the bottle I thought, but I don't think I've heard of that anywhere else.
 
Brings me back to when I was young and watching my father in his garage. Greasy dirty old tools surrounded by greasy cold cheap cans of beer. Looking at that pic makes me feel 12yrs old again. :D


This is my buddy's garage (attached to his house) a few towns over from me. Best mechanic I've ever known and he has a lift so it makes life easy.

Water after slamming-down a late dinner.

A garage, tools, machinery, beer....add a grill and some slabs of dead meat and life is great. :)
 
Grabbed one of these the other night and 4 of the fire walker double jack. Never had them so I figured, what the heck.

Yea that's on there. At least they said pale stout. Semi-stout character. It's weird drinking a light color beer and taste chocolate though my habanero chocolate mead is the same color and taste chocolate lol. Might make my own.. though I do not like using adjuncts
 
Fuzzy, what were your findings on the FBS and WNB comparison?

Have not done it yet. Dont worry even though Im a Founders homer Ill call it down the middle lol. I love every Terrapin Ive had so far.
Now having Session IPA from Tailgate Brewing. Found it earlier at the grocery store for $3 a sixer. Pretty tasty with Magnum and Cascade.
 
Some German mineral water I grabbed at Trader Joe's this evening. Tasty and bubbly, but definitely not good brewing water. 1800 ppm bicarbonate, according to the label.
 
About to decide on something to drink while I clean up after bottling my first all-grain (BIAB), a pale ale. It should be good, overall. It may wind up a little overcarbed. I forgot to close the spigot on the bottling bucket and didn't catch it until a few beers got away. D'Oh! Rookie mistake...but I'm still a rookie, so....
 
One last beer. My Düsseldorf Altbier. After picking up keys to my new place, a HUGE and badly needed (although maybe still not enough) win for the Caps, it was a good day. Finishing up some packing and then calling it a night.
 
Another one...on a Tuesday night?! Um...okay. My HB American Wheat Citra Citrus. Is there drug interaction between alcohol and Afrin nasal spray? Weeeeee! Time for bed.

Just finished a bottle of Deschutes Mirror Mirror (2014). Very good. Glad I've got more ready to age past its "best after" date.
