@PianoMan this is what it's supposed to look like. I'm finishing a fruited Berliner while drinking my Placebo.View attachment 667299
This Pumking is delicious! Great roast, perfect amount of non-overwelming spice. I got hints of vanilla more then coffee. A pleasure to drink!

Do you not recommend 04 for stouts? I have another stout planned for an upcoming brew and bought a packet of 04 thinking that might be something new to try. I typically use Nottingham but decided to try something different. My only other option without putting in another order is a packet of 05
You got to give it months for the flavor profile to settle in. I almost rushed out and bought a Guinness Extra Stout since this reminded me of that beer.
 
My first wild yeast harvested open fermented sour. It started in the garage with the doors opened for a week with three pounds of apricots sunk to the bottom. I drained it leaving the pellicle behind, and into the fermenter it went today. Can't wait :)

That sounds exciting! Can't wait to hear the results.

Definitely one of the better IPAs I've made. Some Bitter, fluffy feel, cryo citrus/Mosaic dry hopped.

Literally 1min before walking out the door to try a new gym, our 100lb lab took my knee out that already has a blown ACL. Ergo, it's beer and video games today.[emoji482]

Westvleterian12 and my clone version 1week kegged.

W12 is dry as fukk. Changes across the experience leaving a nice residual sweetness. Not sure I'd call it the best beer in the world but that darker version getting close. [emoji41]

Edit: as it warms getting real nice fruitiness. Don't drink too cool for sure!

Yeah Westy 12, St Bernardus 12, and Rochefort 10 all need to warmup to appreciate the flavor profile IMHO

Sabe one to compare to mine in a few weeks.

I have a batch of St. Bernardus 12 going right now, to which I added 1/2 pound of oat malt and 1/3 tsp. of gluco-amylase. Gravity check yesterday was at 0.994, and it still tastes great at ~70°. Will bottle some for drinking soon, but most is going into a bourbon cask.

My Belgianmart box made it through customs so I’m hoping not much longer. I’m really hoping my next brew day to do my westy12 clone. Just gotta get my inventory built up so I can have some stuff to drink.
 
Discretion comes from me, well...literally but also not so literally...

I have taken to writing names on cans/bottles of the member who sent me the beer so that I don't forget. Of course, I do forget sometimes to write the names before putting them on the beer shelf.

Early day, I can't remember if @CTownBrewer or @TwistedGray this for me, but regardless its tasty and thank you View attachment 667406
