What are you drinking now?

[TBC]

 

[orionol73]

Doesnt one of you around here have a lavender saison they brew?

 

[grampamark]

Back at the farm. I have homebrew again!

I kegged this just before we went to the city, a little over two weeks ago. I called it “Corn .45”. I brewed it as a Blonde Ale, but it’s basically a malt liquor. A little over 50% flaked corn and corn syrup.

This is a short pour, in a Crown Royal glass , and I have to say it’s-drinkable. A bit sweet and 7.5% ABV. I have some light beer drinking friends who will like this stuff.

I think I've seen someone do that here before. I think what I would do, what I have done with non-alcoholic beverages, is use a lavender simple syrup as the primer (for bottles) or use in the keg. Just a thought...

Stocked up on some beer while getting groceries for my dad. Good grilling beer. Pork tenderloin, carrots, and pineapples

Cellar beers

 

[SanJuanWorm]

Finally got out for supplies, including groceries and a trip to the liquor store. Monday mid-afternoon was a good choice to run errands!

This is a Gose-style beer called Gose Face Quila , by Parallel 49 Brewing. Brewed with tequila, ginger and lime to 7.0% ABV. It was a leftover seasonal in the singles section.

It's...uhm...a little weird on the nose, but the taste is extra clean and the tequila/lime really comes out. Not sure if I'd buy it again, but it's doing the trick!

[SanJuanWorm]

Ok, enough of that gose nonsense, although it did go down really easy!

Mosaic IPA by Parallel 49, called Time Extend. Not too hoppy and a nice rye taste.

I feel it was a good idea to get out for supplies!

I don’t hate it, but just a bit too bitter for me. Especially at the end.

Target beer

HB Grisette sampler. Now this. This has potential.

 

[orionol73]

walked up the ski hill and body sledded down the hill..wooo!!

 

[BongoYodeler]

Interesting. Two Irish Red Ales. The left one was brewed on 1/19/20, kegged 2/7/20 and the one on right was brewed on 6/16/19, kegged/bottled on 6/30/19 (bottle was in the back of the fridge, forgot I had it).

 

[SanJuanWorm]

One more of the Parallel series that I grabbed. It's a German Leichtbier called Hobby Horse, and I would leave this one. A plain, foamy 3.5% ABV that was like yellow water. Sigh.

Oh well, the second picture is getting back in the game. A Nordic saison from Iceland called Leifur, named for Leif Eiriksson. 6.8% with lots of citrus. Very nice, and if I can find it, it's a regular in my fridge. Resistance is futile!

PS- Don't mind the wooden spoon and pot, I was stirring my apple juice boil...I'm delving into the world of hard cider!

 

[satph]

I got two 3 gallon carboys at 1.100 into the fermentation chamber (planning on making one a variation). Toasting my very active Omega V with a HB lager.

Beer was good, but had to switch it up after dinner. Time to relax.

Have a great night everyone!

HB Galaxy IPA

then a HB Oatmeal Stout

 

[aharri1]

Very solid!

 

[TwistedGray]

I think I'm done with alcohol unless it's in the 0-2% range. That one Saison has had my guts in a furry for the last five hours or so...one beer

This sh*t is getting old. I should probably start my own thread, but I'm drinking water so :°(

Can you Ebay beer? Out of sight, out of mind...

That’s one of my biggest fears. I have found a hobby I enjoy better than any hobby I’ve had before and then I get to the point of not being able to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I hope it is something just temporary.

OT: Hot bean water while heating strike water for my monk’s beer/Trappist single.

 

[Dave Sarber]

Evil black coffee, freshly uncorked. Letting it breathe. Enjoying the ambiance it brings to the nose.

Smell the coffee, people!

Been dealing with it for years, but it has got progressively worse over time.

 

[Gozie Boy]

Somebody WMBO thought it was a great idea to start a 2000 piece puzzle while under house arrest!

 

[vikyvar]

Budweiser. Czech Lager. The original one.

It's not, run!!

 

[pshankstar]

Let’s get it started today with a cellar raid! Damn this is amazing! Thanks @CTownBrewer for turning me onto Horus Ales.

 

[user 263363]

HB English Pale. Clearing very nicely and tasting better every time I crack one.

 

[Tobor_8thMan]

My own Blackberry Wheat. Bottle conditioned.

 

[Section1]

First time having one of these for me. I think I was expecting something different. Was OK but just not as good as some have described it.

 

[Tobor_8thMan]

Now my "Endless Summer" olde style Pils. Another bottle conditioned brew.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

If was only in the 40s today.

Really depends on conditioning, transportation, how it was handled etc. Time to brew your own! Then you have it fresh. Yum! Tap photo from November 2019.
