Weekend beer line up

Mrs clause was very very good to me...and the night is still early.

 

Holy crap batman you would think you were at a pub. That's quite the assortment.

Coming all the way from the left coast ...this a very clean easy drinking wheat beer. Wishing I had more then one..

 

So I just infused fresh raspberries into Hottenroth with a french press. Came out pretty legit. Love the color.

 

What was your process hook? That would be great to do with a Berliner wiess...and I happen to have a new French press

 

- crush the raspberries (I used 6 oz) and place into french press
- add about 4 - 6 oz of beer (I would use either a berliner weisse or gose)
- let sit for about an hour while cap the rest of the beer in the fridge to save carbonation
- press, then mix raspberry beer concentrate with the rest of the beer
- enjoy

it came out awesome

 

That sounds awesome!!! I've never ever thought of trying something like that, thanks for sharing!

I foresee myself trying this and some other combos as well....just off the top of my head...taking a mediocre stout like maybe a Guinness....and let it sit on some coffee beans and whiskey chips or something...

I'll post the results of any experimentations I try out

 

I need a to bug a Randell jr.

 

Kyle....you drunk posting again?

 

Picked up a 750 ml of Surly Eight today, anxious to try it out but at $24 a bottle I may stash it away for a rainy day.

Every year surly releases a new beer for their anniversary, this year for their eighth, it was an oak barrel aged barley wine.

Had this with the butter basted grill finalized prime rib ...now onto the king crab legs...



This is a really good ESB that my brother in law brought me from San Fran

 

Next is a Sour also from the left coast....says its an autumn sour with a hint of pumpkin aged in wine barrels....

Well it's starts out super, think really typical sour that bites you back a little ...then it flattens out and it taste like a mouth full of Cabernet, not bad until the finish and it falls flat ...like young Cabernet, more wine-ish then beer.

Nice beers trial! I love drakes and almanac! I sampled quite a few of their beers when I was in NoCal and they were all delicious.

 

Have any of yall ever gone to an "America On Tap" Beer festival? There's one coming to Portland, Maine on January 24th. There seems to be a few good breweries on the list, but not all that I'd hoped for. I'm curious what the atmosphere is like at one of these events.

 

Ok quite afternoon at home...this is an old stand by for me. solid

 

Another sour!! This Almanac is really nice.... Dogpatch Sour.

Excellent !!!

 

Things are about to get epic!!!!! Wifey and I are off today and hillfarmstead brewery is doing a tap takeover at worthy burger! PUMPED!

 

Oh man what a day, worthy burger was legit. Lots of locally sourced meats, cheeses, breads and veggies. We had truffle fries, burgers, and an appetizer plate with pickled Brussels sprouts/radishes/cauliflower.

The beer list was even better. I tried hill farmstead double citra, single citra, society & solitude #2, and Edward. from the bottle list we had Allagash farm to face peach sour. Very hard to come by, but very delicious. It's the first sour of theirs I've felt was worth the price.

 

Sounds like a great day! Some really nice beers there
