Weekend beer line up

I think I'm going to try a beer float with some Southern Tier Creme Brulee Stout soon

 

i did a float last year with the Dogfish pumpkin seasonal with some vanilla ice cream. I whipped a lil vanilla extract and a lil cinnamon in the ice cream bfore hand. Best thing ever. god i cant wait for october

 

You guys that are home brewing, are you buying your supplies locally or online? I'd like to try my hand at brewing.

 

I have 2 options for local homebrewing stores, plus I buy from northernbrewer.com and I keep seeing good deals for morebeer.com

 

let your pancreas know in advance - that sounds like a recipe for very very tasty diabeeeetus!

 

Both. I have a local homebrew store and I order from Austinbeersupply.com

 

Thanks guys. The only things I've seen locally are the cheapo plastic kegs that are sold at Macys at Christmas time. If I do it, I'd like some decent equipment.

 

Be careful with overcarbonated homebrew, today's over carbonation could be tomorrow's bottle bombs.

Bottle bomb's are normally twist lids. No respectable beer drinker drinks beer from a twist off. I doubt hoker would bottle his brew in a twist off bottle.

 

bottle bombs are what happens when your homebrew over-carbonates. If you bottle before fermentation is done, or add too much sugar for bottle conditioning: POW.

 

I don't know anyone who bottles homebrew with twist off caps

Well.... its not the weekend... But i got off work at a decent hour and decided to stop and the local beer store. Picked up a John henry brew.

 

Went to the nations captial today... did a little shopping with the misses... then did a little beer shopping at some wine & spirts. Picked up a 4 pack of dogfish 120 minute ( limit per customer ) 1 Dogfish head Immort ale, and a few other IPA's and a brown ale that doesnt have much flavor which im drinking right now. glad it was only $1.99. Afterwards we stopped @ lost rhino brewery on the way home and took the tour and had a few samples. Nothing spectacular.. however it is the only tour that ive been on that i have ever gotten to take a sample of brew where its kept before filtering and bottled.

Lot of run tonight. Bars were well to me.

Tried the Redds apple ale this weekend. Not bad at all.

I agree! It's pretty good, better than the angry orchard stuff. It's pretty sweet so I normally don't want to drink more than one.

 

Yeah it's sweet that's for sure. I don't mind though. I can have a few then I got to switch it up.

so far tonight: Cedric's Brown Ale; Killian's Dry Irish Stout; home brewed Scottish 70/'

 

I got a pretty decent haul from a buddy in Denver. Really looking forward to trying the Crooked Stave, The Bruery, and of course, the Russian River offerings.



Enjoyed some DFH tonight
