A 12 ozer of my Mocha Latte Stout...a little carby on the pour, but good.

The dregs going into your clone? As I need to ask. Looking into doing that one myself.

Onto this,


The saison i made wasn't an exact clone, just a 100% brett saison. And bad news on that beer. I used an old fermentor that i wanst sure about but soaked it in bleach, pbw, starsan and it still got infected. I had to dump it last weekend :(
 
After tilling the garden up (by hand) planting our tomatoes, finishing up the rabbit fence around it, washing three different yeast I had a hopulence with dinner and now enjoying this awesome can of hoppyness

It probably wasn't your fermenter if you soaked it like you're saying
 
Plastic bucket. I got it used from a buddy but i didnt start getting the off flavors till six or seven beers after i got it.

Sounds like now you have a dedicated Brett fermenter!

I have one of those, with BRETT written in big letters on it in permanent marker.


EDIT:

Ah, I totally misunderstood. You mean the fermenter was producing other, non-brett flavors. Well, that sucks but it certainly happens with buckets after a while. I just dumped two buckets the other day after getting a nice butyric acid aroma developed in them. That was from the sour mash, not the buckets, but now they are useless for fermenting just the same.

It infected a 100% brett beer after many cleaning soaks and scrubs, past drinkability.

And BTW, brett is a yeast so you dont have to designate fermentors. If you clean properly it wont infect future batches.

Toss it out; what's a plastic bucket cost? $5?

What's in this?

That 3x Mango you sent me was absolutely delicious.

A light citrus profile - cascade would be my guess on the late addition hops. But this is a session IPA (4.9%) - doesn't hold a candle to the triple mango (still hoping they make that one a seasonal...)

Water before bed - I'm up way past my bedtime!

I have quite a bit of my garden planted, but no fencing. Didn't seem to be a problem last year. Hawks in the area seem to have lowered the rabbit population. But I planted two Swiss Chard this past week...first time trying it...and the stalk/stems are getting chewed through. Not eating the leaves, though...just leaving them. Could be squirrels...I've seen a couple of small holes dug out that didn't affect anything. I'm either going to have to let the Swiss Chard go or buy some chicken wire.

Drinking an hb pale ale to lighten things up and take a shot at getting to sleep early.
