Tested the limit of my system today with a big oatmeal stout . Ten gal batch came in at 1.106.
Wanted a stout and this is all they had in bottles.

An IPA with the pork loin with a bourbon glaze, oven roasted potatoes and broccoli and plantains:rockin:


Looks good. Man I'm hungry! Accidentally skipped lunch today. Dinner can't come soon enough!

Wow. Flocc you, sir.

I haven't used those yet, but I have used Pacifica. I really liked them in the saison I brewed with them. Lots of orange and tangerine flavors.

Twisted hop.

I smelled Pacifica. I went with Pacific Gem for a single-hop IPA because that hop variety smelled better. It's not bad. Very berry-like. I dig it. Here's my recipe.

Very cool. It seems like the higher AA hops can pack more aroma in there. What temp did you ferment US-05 at?

That specific brew? 67F. It's not an in-your-face IPA with the hops. But it has a distinct berry aroma and flavor. I wouldn't say it's anything like using Columbus/Citra/Simcoe/Cascade.
 
An ESB on nitro? How very British of you.


Water. OMG this day gets a solid F-.

Are you ready to drink? Or do I have to show you girls (including @billy-klubb ) how it's done?
 
You mean Imperial Stout? :p



I need some of that. Hope it tastes better than it did a few weeks ago. What did you think this time around?


Yeah. Doesn't have what I thought was a plasticky taste anymore, but I also don't think it tastes good. Not off just not good. So I really just don't know.

Not happy with it being a kit but it was a gift so free is free.
 
Stepping it up a notch. Hey @WesleyS you want me to bring you a bottle of this next time I come to Houston? ;)


WooHoo!!! DFH rocks my world! ;)
Actually, I'd love to get my hands on a couple bottles of World Wide Stout. That's the only one of theirs that we don't get here.
Never had Palo Santo, but heard it's good.
