OK, so my friend is a notoriously tough beer critic when it comes to pale ales, IPAs and APAs, his preferred brews. He has ordered me to brew more of what is basically an SNPA clone with a bit of a hop tweak to it.
In a cooler on my current road trip, I brought my SNPA clone along with some SN ESB. He sampled the latter first and said mine was "10 times better." I near fell out of my chair. He is not generally quick with compliments.
This is good news for me. He said the samples I gave him of a couple previous brews were "not so good" and "definitely drinkable," respectively. But this one he loves, so I feel like I'm on the right path.
Had to share because I've had four beers in the last hour. Heading toward druck, but will probably hit the hay before then.:rockin:
