What are you drinking now?

[SanJuanWorm]

Collective Arts 'Ransack the Universe' IPA. Holy Moly, a clear IPA!! Crisp, hoppy and 6.8%. Woot! Label art is cool as well. Cheers!

 

[pshankstar]

Enjoyed a pour of Copper Leaf’s Flanders Red ale version/batch #3. Got a pour of next weeks release of the BA American Wild Ale too. It’s great being a good friend of the head brewer/owner! Then my usual mug club pour of their Hazy IPA which is delicious!

 

[Knightshade]

New edition of Zymurgy showed up today and I’ve got a couple of these Powder Days in the fridge. Perfect!

 

[BrewinInPA]

HB "Jenny Sees" ICA

 

[SourLover]

Another beer wine hybrid.

 

[grampamark]

HB Black Rock Porter

 

[BrewinInPA]

When a malty meets a malty, comin' through the rye...

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

You should see the other OH anniversary beers. They are all similar but different, right @TheDudeLebowski & @TheEagleRising ?

Worse thing is the barcode links to Untapped are all wrong. I always like to read the description after rating. Trying figure out why I'm getting neipa from a Firestone west coast Collab will blow your sense of reality. Even worse is being outside of sober trying to figure out the correct beer

OT:

 

[beermanpete]

Nice! If you can get ahold of Noilly Prat or Dolin, it will take your Martini to the next level. Make sure you keep that vermouth in the fridge!

It is too late for this bottle. I will try the Dolin nexf and buy a smaller bottle. Thanks for the tips.

Nothing wrong with rossi, but if ur gonna go Martinis, might as well go all out!

HB Hefeweizen
Needs more carbonation but tastes good regardless.

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

Packy across the street from Spyglass Brewery always has interesting choices. The Bigfoot was $15

OT: broke my Wombat cherry @pshankstar

 

[SanJuanWorm]

HB Ale of Åsgard. Mmmm. Insert Viking helmet here!

 

[Immocles]

 

[grampamark]

Sample of Scottish Ale. Almost carbonated and pretty tasty.

 

[camonick]

Another HB Hefeweizen in better lighting this time. This batch was made using some homemade sauergut at the end of the boil and I will say it definitely didn’t hurt a damn thing.

Banana or clove? It looks really good! I’ve failed at mostly every hefe and definitely every dunkelweizen that I’ve made. Somehow end up getting zero on both when I’m looking for tart banana.

OT: my favorite local seasonal

Definite banana and the sauergut gives it a little bit of the white grape flavor in the finish you might hear about. I pick up some tartness too.

I somehow made a decent extract Hefeweizen when I barely knew wtf I was doing. Every attempt since then has been a disgrace. Sounds like you nailed it. I read a few years ago on sauergut in various German brews and meant to give it a try. Maybe this summer I need to make that happen.

This seems a little thin to me, but I don’t drink Hefeweizen very often, so I don’t have a good mental image of what is “ideal”. I wanted to pick up a few commercial bottles to compare it to, but I live so far from a decent liquor store with a respectable selection, I haven’t been able to do that. I also spent the money on liquid Hefeweizen ale yeast from white labs WLP300.

 

[pshankstar]

From my secret Santa aka @TallDan. This was a tasty sour!

 

[SailorJerry]

@brandtrepair got our first 3.5bbl brew under our belt this week! Enjoyed a few too many Busch lights at a fish fry last night...

Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[Bluekat]

Time to brew a Schwarzbier. Shout out to the folks at Bitters & Esters. Great products, great service, great prices.

If you happen find yourself around southern MN in the summers, grab a Schell's Hefeweizen. Its their yearly seasonal from April-July and nearly exactly what I want in a hefe. My wife is still leery about me shipping beer around (We can NOT get blackballed from UPS/fedex), but its been awhile since I brought it up. Maybe her tune has changed somewhat haha.

It’s really not that big of a deal and you’d have to have a pretty major failure with your box/ contents for them to even know. Line your box with a heavy duty trash bag, wrap bottles and/or cans with a couple layers of bubble wrap and fill all voids and empty spaces with peanuts or more bubble wrap. I have a personal online account (UPS). I put “glassware” in the description when I have to declare the contents. Pay online and print the label at home. My driver picks up the box where I work and it’s on its way. I don’t even deal with a human. The risk is very low and I would think almost non existent if it’s cans.

 

[pshankstar]

This is amazing! I could crush this all day. Smooth, full body & the Citra hops just pop!
A good friend found a can in the wild and thought of me to bring one back. This is !!!

 

[pshankstar]

Now this gem from @TheDudeLebowski! I have a feeling I’ll be putting a dent in the beer fridge today. My daughter’s have friends over today but they are all good kids with no stress, just more mouths to feed.

 

[grampamark]

HB Cold Smoke

 

[NotSure]

Drinking Dark Kolsch HB. First keg tapped of the year.

 

[pshankstar]

OH 8th anniversary beer. The original was better but this is pretty good too.

( laughs quietly as an ex-UPS employee ) You'd be surprised, Colorado. Your driver must be the genuine article, because even when we ship Canada Post Expidited they kick the sheeeiiittte out of those packages. UPS is even worse. Not sayin'....just sayin'....

One of my best friends is a UPS driver and I can’t believe some of the stuff he tells me.

 

[user 263363]

HB oaked avocado blossom honey mead. This is not only the best mead I’ve made to date, but I’d say it’s also the best fermented beverage I’ve ever made. Straight up earthy honey with a tinge of oak tannin hiding back there. Plus, the color is amazing.

 

[orionol73]

HB Azacca IPA

 

[SanJuanWorm]

One of the many reasons I left the company. I like selling fly rods instead.

Having one of these again, as the weather is blowing in. Cheers!
