Thanks for posting this thread. Yesterday, I was thinking I had no adult beverage. This thread just reminded me I have Corona Light in the fridge.

You see, yesterday I paid my income tax and needed an adult beverage afterward. So, since you reminded me of the Corona, I’ll have two (one to make up for yesterday) later today, well, not much later than right now.

Well now that you mentioned it, I have 5 gallons right now in a glass carboy waiting to be bottled in about three more weeks. 4 lbs. of two row, 6 lbs. of 6 row, 1 lb. crystal malt color 60L, 1/2 lb. smoked malt. I’m thinking I may have to increase the smoked malt in the next batch, but we'll see.

Just poured a trappist ale I bottled about four weeks ago. Time to start another.

Greetings all! Cheers! Currently drinking flat ales and eating home made burritos...a very nice pairing actually.

Bottled up 80 bottles of my famous spiced wheat ales on Sunday but I forgot to add the primer to the first 24.

The good part about that is I can drink them right away, and they are not too bad really but I do look forward to trying the carbonated ones tomorrow night.

Cheers!

I just popped the first bottle of the Belgian I brewed earlier this year. This one is the best ever, probably because I did this with just the basic ingredients, including Trappist yeast, and used a starter both for the initial fermentation and conditioning. I’ll be doing this again very soon!

Man, I’ve missed this thread for WEEKS! Too busy with this & that. We recently bottled a batch of orange wine, which came out nicely, & some blackberry. The blackberry isn’t all it could be - cold weather made for less than perfect berries - but maybe some aging will help.

I’ve got some red grapes & some white in the freezer, but haven’t had the time to set off. One of these days...

I have the Pascha 2013 edition of my dry-hopped pale in secondary right now. Six days in.

Will prime and keg it in time for the big party on Pascha.

OG = 1.062
FG = 1.006

If you bought a commercial beer (Blue Moon) and it was cloudy with sediment at the bottom, would you consider that normal? Only the Blue Moon regular is affected, the specialty beers are clear.
I hope I’m not over-reacting, but the local Walmart pulled their supply on my word.

Kegged my Blood Orange IPA last week, 10.5% ABV and it’s pretty tasty.
