What are you drinking now?

I’ve been on such a lager kick lately, I figured I’d better give the hops some love. This is top 3 Sierra Nevada for me with Pale Ale and Celebration rounding out the list but not necessarily in that order.

I feel ya I've been hitting the bells two hearted pretty consistently. I need to give my Boddington's HB some love when it's carbed and need to get some Guinness rolling too!

Last day in SD so a Pliny the Elder at Knotty Barrel to end the trip.

The first time I had Pliny was ~8-10 years ago in SF. Specifically took the subway to Monk’s Kettle and it was just so different and great. It’s still great, but not that different anymore. If it’s on the tap list I will always have it - and I guess imitation is the best form of flattery - but there are so many great IPAs and DIPAs now. And this is not to diminish it in anyway, so I give huge kudos to Russian River for really being the start (or one of them) of the “destination” beers.

Back at the farm for a couple of weeks. Short pour of HB Altbier, pregaming for a Lion’s Club meeting in a couple of hours.

HB Mead - not many of these left

Goose Island IPA on tap. I didn't have any hoppy homebrew available, so put in a commercial keg. Usually, when homebrewers say their brew is better than commercial, eyeroll. But I'm sure my ipas are better than Goose Island.

In front of it, grabbed some yeast slurry after transferring beers to keg from fermentors.

Why is one of them green?

HB dubbel. Starting to hit its stride.

That jar is tinted for some reason.

Makers and water?
@LoneTreeFarms We might be, ok, we are distributing down to Humbolt starting in a week or two. HyVee and waiting to hear back from whatever bar is downtown. Keep an eye out, and make sure you lie to me and tell me you love everything we make.

Can you say, where's mine?

Enjoying @DrGMG Porter tonight. Well done sir!

Not Much Leffe HB.

Tried to be a clone, but ended up more Saison. Imperial Napolean is diastaticus yeast, who knew? Pulled FG down to 1.004. Still very tasty, though.

Sort of a grape cidery thing. I fermented 3 quarts of Concord grape juice and a quart of water, without adding any sugar. Bottled it like beer or cider. ABV should be somewhere around 6% or just a little less. I tried it because I like apple cider, but apple juice disappeared off the market for a while, then when it came back it was as expensive as grape juice. (price seems to be coming back down towards normal now)

It looks really pretty, and it tastes okay but not as good as apple. Maybe it just needs a little sweetness. It was an interesting experiment and not a total failure, so I'll take that as a win.

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

Every time I crack one open, I am amazed that a beer created 42 years ago still remains relevant.

I kind of like to think of it as the Bohemian Rhapsody of beer.

 

[grampamark]

HB Scottish Ale

Cool thing about this night shift thing is having morning beer. Got a little tired to post this morning. In addition, new Glassware day. A favorite brewery!

It's not ripe yet.

Enjoying the fruits of this year’s adventure with OLY-400 Bananza. Last year, I learned that you can’t do the traditional hefe cold start/warm finish with this strain. This year, I learned it’s still a hefe strain, so it needs some abuse to get it to give up the goods. It’s a bit bland, but I’ll re-brew next weekend. I’m confident that I’ve got its number.

You seem to enjoy Two Hearted.

Last year, I decided to bite on one of Mr. SeanJWalker's good deal posts. This one offered three hoppy US beer kits from N. Brewer for a nice price. I hadn't brewed a hoppy US ale in years and it had been decades since I brewed a kit, so I decided to check it out. The Two Hearted kit was really good. Really, really good. Not just in the ballpark, but on the diamond. My only objection was the amount of C40. They call for a full pound, I think .5lb gets the job done and stay out of the way of the hops.

Here's a link to their recipe. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2785/6868/t/3/assets/AG-DeadRingerIPA-1645639684581.pdf
