I think what’s more important for NE IPAs is the ratio of Cl to so4. I aim for 2 to 1.
What are you drinking now?

The last and final bottle of Kraken, ughhhhhh. Need a break from hard liquor. Oh and a beer 
Just for you I grabbed a taster of my newly kegged ...pale? Blonde? Whatever it is, it's a little boring but not too bad after 2 days on gas

I'm just learning how to manipulate my RO brewing water with mineral salts. So, I'm suffering through a batch of weizenbock which would be tasty if I'd included 1g of epsom salts to the brew water, instead of the 7g that I thought the water calculator indicated. Tastes kinda nasty, but @10% ABV I'm still drinking it. The added laxative effect is a bonus I guess. Either way, it gets the job done!
I've now found the first quote for my sig (as long as I remember to add it in the morning)
Note to self: don't add too much epsom salts!!!! I don't need any help in that department
@mullet6577 if it shats like a duck...

HB Blonde Ale. Not quite fully carbed yet, but pretty tasty.

I finally had a 2 Hearted that I liked. I've been trying for 2 years to like it. Finally got a pour from a fresh keg I guess. It was tasty. But I still don't get the hype.

Say what? I guess it’s some MI/midwest IPA bias but it’s one of the best everyday drinkers...careful as a few will sneak up on you! When in good shape it should be malty and fruity with a firm bitter finish

Winter IPA from @imasickboy
I think that it’s remained popular throughout different crazes like west coast super bitter and NE juicy hazy IPAs is a testament to how solid a beer it is. It’s a go to that is easy to drink and doesn’t disappoint in my experience.
Another DIPA by Other Half with all Citra hops. Two 10.5% beers, will there be a third tonight?

I've read that there is more then enough magnesium in grains So I stopped using it all together. Makes life easy. Only gypsum. Calcium Chloride, and Lactic acid addition.
Added 1oz Citra Cryo this morning. Believe it has enhanced the NEIPA for sure.

Untapped says I've had 140ish. Funny, only seems like two.
My good friend’s brother-in-law is a brewer there (Ed), I’ve heard good things, was it pretty cool?

If every Two Hearted was as good as what I had tonight, I would be devoted as well.
I know from living in New England that the NEIPA's get tiresome really quick. Don't get me wrong, they can be deliscious. They just start all running together before long. It's nice to have something with some substance and yet not a palette wrecker. Hopefully more locals will have Bells on tap. It seems to translate better into what I was expecting all along.

Your description perfectly fits what I had tonight. A very good beer. It just took quite a few and a couple years of trying to get to a fresh one.
Very nice there !! Good beer and great atmosphere
