That was a nice change up. Very juicy.Another excellent beer from @WhoDatDad78 from the LOT thread... this one is a perfect beer for an early brew day. Takes me back to about 10 years ago when I had my first berliner it was during philly beer week and I was sitting at the now defunct nodding head brewpub, feeling the effects of the day before, had their berliner with splash of orange juice for a hair of the dog special.

So my wife accidentally let her awesomeness shine through this morning. I got a pretty early start on a brew day. I mentioned out loud that "the only thing that is bad about starting a brew day early is that I have a hard time justifying having a beer this early". She said "then you need to design a breakfast beer made for brew days that start this early".
To keep this post on topic, towards the latter half of my Brew Day, I had a home-brewed Amber ale.
Disagree! I do 0.5 oz Dolin, 2oz gin, 0.5 oz meltwater from the ice stir and 2 dashes orange bitters w a lemon twistno steak dinner is complete without a starter martini
Classic gin, painfully dry means if there is even a open bottle of vermouth in the county, that's too much vermouth

Blue cheese can be good with a savory gin like beefeaters or HendricksServer asked if I wanted a classic garnish or maybe bleu cheese in my olive & he must have guessed my answer by the puzzled look I gave him like... "do I LOOK millennial?"
Me too! You would also love NO brewing Blackened Voodoo if you can find it... that was the first shwartzbier I ever had before I even knew thats what it was.Love this beer View attachment 748169
