Not a Carolina beer, but pretty good. Sitting on the balcony at the beach resort makes it better though.

My Old Rasputin clone keg kicked but I have another 5 gallons fermenting. This is at the 24 hour mark.

OR was my first Imperial Stout. I couldn't drink more then 1/4 of it. It was like straight up Everclear to me. Ha! My how times changed. Did you get a kit or make up the recipe?

Ha! I got a kit from MoreBeer.com. This is the third time I’ve brewed it. It’s more mellow, not as hoppy as the real McCoy. I like the clone better as it’s a smoother drinker. The first two times the ABVs were 11.16 and 11.55. We’ll see what this one comes out at.
 
Short pour of Irish Red after a morning of shooting gophers with my 7 yo grandson, who’s staying with us for a week.

We don’t hunt gophers, we just shoot them. We’re overrun with the little bastards. For some reason, the usual number of predators (foxes and coyotes, mostly) have been conspicuously absent the last few years. Since the gestation period of gophers is something like twelve days (I kid, but it seems that short) they multiply quite rapidly.
Love that glass! 😂
 
Nice! I enjoy DSO astrophotography also. I have an Explore Scientific ES80, Explore Scientific ED127 FCD100, and a Celestron C9.25 SCT, that I mount on a Skywatcher EQ6-R Pro.

Nice gear ! No more scopes over 6 inch for me, getting older and just too heavy. I've only had my Meade LX85 mount out 3 times but I'm not crazy about it. I wish I hadn't sold my old trusty Celestron ASGT. I may sell the Meade and go back to Celestron, maybe try the AVX. Have not done DSO photography just moon and planets with entry level cameras, Celestron Nextimage 5 and ASI120MC-S. Can't afford cooled cameras. 🍻
 
Drinking my Kentucky Common. Nailed it. I put a tad bit of Dark Cherry Extract for just that hint of sweetness.
Anyway, attention all Beer Gods!
Does anyone know of any recipe to concoct a brew called GRIMMBERGER? Grimmys for short. Its a French Double Amber Ale made by those crazy Trappist Monks. I can no longer find it anywhere and I'm throwing in the towel trying to locate it. The brew is fantastic, to me anyway. I seriously need the Gods on this one. Thank you in advance! Peace.

I think you just wrote the recipe. Imperial Amber using Trappist yeast (WY3787)...😉

Wife comes back tomorrow but moving VERY forward on beer related activities this last week. Here are a couple projects I did using spare materials for the most part. I can now temperature control 2 buckets in this small freezer. Built up an another mash tun with an old cooler also.

Couldn't resist a 7day sample of the IPA. Columbus and Hop blend Citiva in the boil/whirlpool. Then 3days after, cryo hop Citra/Mosaic and more Citiva during fermentation. Same will be kegged hop. Hope it stays this way. I've tasted this flavor in so many modern IPAs. Recognized it immediately. Orange juice like. Nice bitterness. Since I've always struggled with IPAs, enjoying while it lasts.

Thank you Pianoman. That's all I needed.

If this is what you're looking for, Brewer's Friend has a clone recipe. Look for Grimbergen Dubbel-ambree clone. I can't say how good it is. I have an extract recipe I've made that compared well in side by side tasting.
