Nice glass.


Thanks! Still over 100f here but I'm ready for stout season and happy I can finally use this glass

I haven't had this years, but I have 2 of last years left. I hope Narwhal doesn't start having problems. it seems once they start with a specific beer, they never stop.


It may just be me, I hope so because I have always really liked Narwhal. Have one from last year left too.
 
Back from watching Doctor Who...not as many people as last year...hosts have brand new baby. He had no commercial beer and HB's were all a couple years old. He said one he tried awhile back tasted sour...I assume, not in a good way. We drank a bomber of Hi-Nelson w/Hibiscus and I had a 12 oz Major Nelson IPA. Pizza, chips and cookies. Kids have friends over for sleepover...ugh. About to grab something from the fridge...anything!

I racked my hard ginger beer through some cheesecloth and into a 1 gallon glass carboy. Stuck a sample in the fridge to chill and see if it clears any. ABV is almost 4%. I'll probably cold crash tomorrow night and bottle Monday.

****. Turning 21x2 in a few mins.

Why don't I feel twice as good?
Why don't I have twice as many friends celebrating w me?
Why can't I tolerate twice as many shots?

Eh. It's ok. I have two 9 year old boys who are already better men than I've been in 42 years. Plus a wife who loves me in spite of everything.

Still, to be 21 again...

Hell, I want to be 10 and know what i do now!
 
While brewing, I've had my own Bells Pale Ale, San Diego Super Pale, Summit Pale, Curieux Clone, Cottage House Saison, Ginger-Hibiscus Saison, and Saison De Noel. Yeah, the ground water temp sucks in the summer.

ImageUploadedByHome Brew1408850558.741471.jpga little HB saison the perfect nightcap after going to see my buddy play some live music after a year and a half later of rehab from having a building collapse on him trying to rescue our guys after a nasty hotel fire. That day still feels like yesterday but damn I'm glad to be able and share a beer with him today and raise a glass to the four that didn't make it home that day. Gone but never forgotten.
 
Ah, Sculpin, you have been missed. Glad to have you back in CT. If I'm correct in assuming the stamp on the bottle is a Julian date, then this was bottled a mere ten days ago and it definitely tastes like it.

IIRC they use Julian dates, but I have been drinking since noon.

But yes they do.
 
Sweetwater's "Dank Tank" series. "The Price is Wrong" Ale. So good. Love my LHBS in North GA who sells amazing beer by the growler!
 
Water. I got up at 3:30 because my 2yo son was crying. I asked him if he was ok, he looked at me and puked on my feet. He just fell back to sleep.

That sucks. Hope he is better when he wakes up (the one good thing about kids is they rebound so fast!)

From the sounds of it, most of the beers are just average. Didn't the brewer have to win a contest or something? Or are the beers just collab beers with other breweries?

Drinking water.

They are just collabs with different breweries. The concept was phenomenal, the execution was lacking and the timing of delivery just plain sucked.

Coffee and trying to plot out all the stuff I need to get done today (including mowing the jungle out there if it dries up by this afternoon)

Friday morning our 3 y/o came into our room at 4:57 and said, "I puked on the couch. Then I went into the kitchen." he was wide awake and ready to go.

on the cawpheh.

Happy birthday.

A dinner party turned into a sleepover with multiple families. As the guest dad, i got the floor.

Dang it, I am old. More coffee, and I will submit the list.
