What are you drinking now?

[GnenieGone]

7.5% Stout w/S-04. So far so good. Cold crashing now. Working on a 3.5gal Heady Topper'ish brew design.

Edit: Decided to brew that Hanahpu clone I've been wanting to do for a year with this yeast cake.

HB Flat Tire
I still haven’t compared it to the real one yet, but it’s a pretty solid amber.

Amazing FotHB package arrived from @RCope. Puts my obscure cap sharpie labeling and duct tape labeling to shame.

This Pale Ale rocks! Get the fruitiness and nice bitter.

Yeah but you do use colored tape, so there's that.

HB Hefe batch #16, optimized for 4VG and I taste the cloves like never before ( third Hefe brew so far). Pretty and tasty. Third time's a charm!

HB Pale Ale. The logo is on the back of the glass.

 

[GnenieGone]

Thought this Belgian Strong Ale (10.5%ish) w/oak-chardonnay was going to be a dumper. Not Nebraska's Melange a Trios but much much better then it was a couple weeks ago

[GnenieGone]

@RCope fricking SOLID Mango Milkshake IPA. Mango is pronounced! I've always felt, if you put a flavoring in the name, it better have that flavor! This does. Great mouthfeel, nice bitter... damn this is top notch beer.

 

[SanJuanWorm]

Same beer from last time, almost the same picture...

Super-succesful boil...with no crack!?!@!! Wow, with all the extra fermentables and hops, I'm very surprised. Just getting a hint of Grapefruit as the wort cools. This Voss pitch might be a good one for Spring.

 

[TwistedGray]

Anddddddddd done for the evening.

 

[SanJuanWorm]

Another local Pils to end the night. The rumours are not true...haha!

Lost a bit of ABV on my brew tonight because I went to 6gal, but got a proper 1.060-1.065, so around 7.35%. I'll take that for a 6gal brew. Hopefully the mighty Voss will do some magic as well. Cheers everyone! Woooo!

 

[orionol73]

Crazy cool raw beer

Compared to today, 'ol Burt looks like a light weight!

Less then 3 Buds and you're passed out? Really now.....

 

[SanJuanWorm]

Oh I'm sure 'ol Burt was doing just peachy at that point!

I think he was just waking up... "....koff....kofff....grunt.....rollover, hey, there's beer!...."

He found a "wounded soldier" upon wakening and it was Christmas to him. He did his duty lol.

Raw beer? Heh?

 

[lumbergh]

It's kind of like carrot cake. Tastes better than it sounds

 

[GnenieGone]

Couple brews from the LHBS dudes, Cream ale and Porter, solid.

2 doors down is Last Stand's new brewpub. Couple ipas, Belgian, and coffee porter. In a word, Meh.

 

[GnenieGone]

Why-o-why did I pay for inferior beer when I have this?? @RCope action. So far so good on these HBs!

Let's keep the gravy-train rolling

Did that taste similar to the stout I recently sent you? They were the same recipe.

 

[Tobor_8thMan]

My own Spotted Cow. This is close, but, IMO, would match the true brew if I had used a Belgian yeast.

 

[GnenieGone]

No doubt! I was thinking that myself. Have you guys sent each other samples?

We need to do a side trade. I’m just glad to hear I didn’t jack up his recipe.

 

[balrog]

Urrrp.

It was a no-boil pale ale. Really officer.

 

[GnenieGone]

Sometimes I wonder the wisdom of putting this mini-beer fridge so close to the chair in the brewpub....

 

[GnenieGone]

Off topic...but this was the year, 2011, I told my daughter in law I should buy $500 hold it and see what happens. If you get a gut feeling run with it!

 

[BongoYodeler]

HB Red Ale.

I have yet to pick up any of this year’s Parabola. I need to get over to FW.
Have you had the Coconut Parabola? Not sure if they brewed it again this year but I have some from 2019, it’s amazing!!

Unfortunately, that variant misses Austin. Maybe, when I hit SLO, I'll ISO.

Edit: My step-mother suggested we all go to Disneyland when I arrive. Uh, no....crazy lady!

Odell 90 Shilling

I like this beer, but it’s something of a curiosity. The “90 Shilling“ implies a Scottish Ale but this ain’t. To me it’s more like an Altbier or a Cali Common. The brewery’s website says that this beer has won medals as an English style Brown, an Alt, and as an American Amber. I guess it’s the all purpose, amber colored, beer.
