Signs that you drink too much: no intervening posts in the “what are you drinking now?” thread.

HB Dark Mild (was supposed to be a London Brown, but missed the mark):

This stuff is good.

Monkish. Foggy Window.

Another Crooked Stave oak barrel aged saison. Crisp, a little tart, doesn't have that slight funk of their Vieille, but definitely a good beer.

@AlexKay, no intervening posts for me either! HB cantaloupe wheat.

Happy National Daiquiri Day!

HB Hefeweizen looking and tasting great. It cleared more than I expected.

Two fingers of Jameson on the rocks.

What I’m not drinking is my HB Blonde Ale.

The sawdust from my shop vac makes pretty good floor dry.

I was finishing the lid for the faucet box on the quick ‘n’ dirty keezer and bumped the faucet when I turned around. I didn’t notice anything until I heard a hissing sound. Turned back towards the keezer and the faucet was blowing foam. It was a 2.5 gal batch and there was probably 1.5 gal left in the keg.

I have a 4 gal batch of Altbier in primary. I pulled a sample today (day 5) and it’s at the predicted FG but I really don’t want to keg a beer that green. We’re going back to the farm on Monday. I can keg the Alt before we leave and it will be ready when we come back around the end of the month.

The rest of this week will be the longest I’ve gone without homebrew in, probably, 10 years. Oh well. I’m in a city with 10 brewpubs and grocery and c-stores that sell craft beer on almost every corner. I’ll get by.

I have faith that you. I know you can drink store bought

And, right on cue…

Sort of a Wit. It’s pretty good.

You're a bit of a wit yourself.

A half wit is a bit of a wit. Or something…

Weller is one of the short supply limited releases every year that we have to put our names into a drawing for and literally win a lottery for the right to purchase one bottle here in PA. Very hard to come by.

It is nigh on impossible to find in my area. I had to pay the tater tax and got it for $75 a couple years ago. If I was as mature about bourbon then as I am now, I never would have bought it. It’s good, but not worth the hype.

I’ve been keeping Evan Williams Black Label and Wild Turkey 81 on hand. Not exactly top shelf but 2 solid bourbons. I have about 1/2 of a bottle of Very Old Barton left that I got really lucky and found in a store here one day. I like that one but I have a feeling I’m not going to be able to find that here again any time soon

Love this beer! I'm thinking about driving down to the brewery's taproom and getting a 1/6 keg of this for my keezer.

Locally sourced Helles from Sly Fox.

HB Pilsner. Not quite a week in the keg.

user 263363 · Jul 19, 2022

It’s hard to see, but I think my centennial lager is showing signs of clearing. I really need to lay off it for another week or so and see what happens. It’s just so good. This beer has not touched oxygen since yeast pitch and I can truly tell the difference.
