Not sure I can swallow the $750 secondary market but Christmas was good.

The 20 was quite a bit different. A little more mellow and the oak was different. Not sure how to describe it. Great though!

"Did I just drop down a rabbit hole?"
kinda somethng from another post.
here is a 13 month old sour cider. A little experement. About 10% ABV. It was brown sugar, black tea, some random spices from the cabinet (i do that alot) then set out in my shop and open fermented for a week. Held for another week, then secondaried for a month. Bottled dry, un carbed. Honestly at that point it was fing nasty. I almost dumped it. It had the white lambic crap you get from a sour beer, what i expected. Still was gross.
SWAMBO convinced me to bottle it anyway. Over the last year, it has been on my old houses plant shelf for a few months. Then in a storage unit for 4 months. During a record setting 100+ summer. Then in my 65* consistent basement, in my new home, for the rest of the time. Finally opened one a couple weeks ago. OMG its the best cider i have had. Slight sour taste. Very smooth, apple cider taste. I love the bit of tannin you get from the black tea, and it really fleshed out the flavors in it. Im so sad that i only got 4 gallons of it. I dont think i can ever replicate the whole process. But i still get to enjoy it for a bit. I have drank about a gallon of it already

I really wish that Imperial Korova wasn't a one off.
Short Mead then bed. A few other beers earlier.

Me too! Could have taken Monday off but it's light. I fell asleep for 4 hours today without trying. SWMBO is a saint for letting me be.
Another 3 day weekend next, with triple time on Thursday.

Coffee. Getting ready for the 6hr drive up north in a packed car to the world of 3 hrs of sunshine per day. Should have brought some actual Darkness with me...

Not quite to the arctic circle, but probably only a few hours away from it I think. 62nd parallel.
Café. Just had peanut butter toast.
Gonna go get schooled by neighbors on an easy 8 mile run. Grumble. One is 16, the other two are older than me.
... Never mind they all run marathons.

I brewed it before it was cool. Trendsetter.
Full Throttle... Big day of working around the house. Might try to brew, but that'll be pushing it.

Drive safe! Enjoy the darkness, I would love to sleep up there.
Coffee, waffle and bacon all in me, relaxing before taking my mom & MIL to see a Christmas "castle".

Tea. Ugh. Forgot to bring the Surly with us, and all liquor stores are closed here Sundays. Guess I'll be giving my liver a well deserved break today...

Coffee. Thinking of beer, but will likely wait until after my son's hockey game.
