Na I haven't brewed an IPA for them as of yet. I did send down a couple kegs of my APA to corporate at their request, along with the recipe. They should start brewing it any time. It's been very well received. How was the IPA?



Onto a taste of my cloudy ass cider. It's... ok. Total newb to cider.


It was pretty good. No aroma at all though. I just figured it was rather old or the boss man cut the hop budget lol. They had it and Dirty Sally on tap. Haven't seen the APA yet.
 
Just finished packing for my trip tomorrow and now ready to get pretty buzzed, but not too bad. Heading out the door at 0800.

Could have been old, but the boss man ain't a cheap skate in my experience. They send me whatever I order, no questions asked. Haven't met the brewers down there or tasted the beer so I cant speak to their brewing prowess. I brew the Dirty Sally as well, but use my own ABA recipe, as I didn't like theirs. Not sure how that'll work out in the long run. Lol. Thanks for the support though. Drink local!

Ok I lied , the cider was awful. We'll see how some age treats it. Some more HB 'Murican Amber and a cheap ass cigar. They'd kick me right out of the Stoagie thread. Feeling it tonight.

Having a impending descent from tröegs this years is more choc and balanced then the hop bomb 10.5% RIS they made it as for "the apocalypse" back when ever that was or the rapture or which ever high rating history Chanel hysteria thing was a couple years ago
 
Kilt Lifter by Four Peaks at the airport. Sitting next to a lady who is super chatty. If I think someone is chatty then she is super chatty.

Is her name Cathy by any chance?

I think I'm finally finished with baking for the season. Latest batch for the son's class party tomorrow. Now to relax until I have to work in a half hour.

Not a chance! Smoke what you like and like what you smoke! The more the merrier over in that thread.

About to pour a few more fingers of whiskey and head to bed. This cold is killing me

I smoke what I can afford, not what I like. Times are rough. May stop in over there though.

Couple more HB and a snort of this God awful swill with my neighbor.

If you want to do a side by side, any time. The 13 is probably still a little smoky, but the other should be awesome. Did a 2008 and a 2012 in 2013 for the 2013 Dixie Cup (homebrew comp/conference in Houston) with Geoff Larson and his rule of thumb is that they are best with a year or two on them, but mellow out quite nicely over time. Cool guy.

I'm thinking New Years because I will be in New Orleans for Christmas with too many people around (New Years with the family though).
Funny you mention the Dixie Cup, I entered 4 beers and 2 placed (robust porter and Munich Helles).
 
Transferred my WnB clone to secondary. Finished at 1.026
Drinking the hydro sample. I'm pretty happy with where it's at. I'm thinking about splitting it into two batches. Leaving one alone and putting vanilla, cinnamon, cocoa nibs, and some whiskey soaked spiral in the other. Suggestions on how much to use and for how long? I've never used any of those except the wood before. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1419304299.287032.jpg
