What are you drinking now?

[BreezyBrew]

Still on water, beer soon. Measuring hops never gets old.

I'm hoping we start seeing stuff like that in Ohio soon so far I've only seen long strange triple in a bomber and its pretty awesome

 

[Hello]

Starting with cider. Trying to get the keg to kick so I can keg my fresh squeezed IPA clone.

Brew day is going well so far. Hit my mash temp spot on. That rarely happens and I always need to mess with hot or cold water.

Piers Morgan is a ******. For once something we can all agree on.

Drinking water and watching the QPR/Southampton match.

The fact that you follow him on Twitter scares the living **** out of me.

Seems like everyone is brewing today but me. :fro: So, I'll just stick to drinking.

 

[Remmy]

First pint of home brew to start the day. Nothing like it.

I don't. I don't even know how to use Twitter, let alone have an account. As in, I pilfered that off of the internet.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

More water. My head is killing me. I totally pulled a @Hello and didn't drink water yesterday. Oops.

Ran to the store and ordered the parts I need to get the beast back up and running. Had some lady pull up behind me in the parking lot crying hysterically and asked me for gas money.

 

[Qhrumphf]

More coffee, and watching Toffees v. Scousers.

I love days solely dedicated to football. Except QPR blew it. So it's 5th place unless the Hammers pull off a miracle tomorrow against Man U.

Football season ended six days ago. Whatever your day is devoted to, it is not football.

Water.

Shuffling around things in the beer closet. Anyone care to share their opinion on how any of these are drinking right now or when I should plan to drink any of these.

I am not really a fan of either, but what just ended was Hand Egg. Football is the game with the foot and the ball.

Preach! BTW, I just packed up 43lbs of beer for you.

Judging by the looks of that cork, the Saint Somewhere is good to go. Never had that one, it looks like the collab with Redlight Redlight maybe? Wear eye protection.

 

[Hello]

Cider. Got my new 16 gallon kettle to drop off at a welder to punch holes and the darn thing is out of round. It's a bayou classic, which I opted for because I love my 10 gallon so much. Bummed but I don't want to keep it of the lid won't even fit on right. It's for a herms system.

Chilling my wort.

I vote to drink the Crooked Staves. They are typically best right around when they bottle them. I'm not sure I've had one that I liked more after aging. Age ceratinly dosnt hurt them though. So in summary, age them more or drinking them, either will work.

 

[BGBC]

All cleaned up. Busy morning. Just the bread left to finish.

I'll open outside while pointing away from anything or anyone.

Damn you and your indecisive answer!
Yeah, I kinda figured I should go ahead and drink the Crooked Staves. Actually, all the bottles I took pictures of were ones I was thinking about going ahead and putting on my drink soon shelf. The ones I had some doubts about were the Stickee Monkee and DDBA, but thought I'd see if anyone had drank any of the others recently and had any opinions to offer.

 

[nukebrewer]

Judged a decent combined flight of Amber hybrid and German wheat and Rye beer this morning. Then had a Beast Mode and a Peakskills with lunch. Now about judge stouts.

The Surette I had last night was batch 5 from 2013 and it was fantastic!

Allen never misses a saint somewhere post and Gabe never misses an oerbier post. It's like they have radar, haha.

First samples of my first sours. Some have potential, some I'm not too sure about.
