What are you drinking right now?

It's consistent, considering how far it travels

A few of their beers are brewed here in Ft Collins, CO by Anheuser-Bush. Maybe the whole line is now, but I know at least Longboard and maybe more are brewed here. So I guess they don't travel far before they get to me!

Time for a Wayner-s!

Ah bit dark.

That picked up my spirits! Nice

My buddy brought over the last bottle of the Black IPA that I brewed close to a year ago. When we split it I scooted inside and got a sample of the current on tap fresh version for comparison. Considering that this is a beer that needs to be enjoyed fresh, it aged very well. The hop aroma and flavor did become subdued and a little bit earthy I think. Still a very enjoyable beer. Bitterness was still there but decidedly different. The current version knocks the socks off it though!

Nice getting together, isn't it. Sigh.

Wayners that didn’t fit in the keg. Nice citrus taste. Can’t wait to taste this carbed up

A nice not-so-sour Sour from one of the local breweries. Turn the monitor sideways...

Mine is actually clearing up some after some time in the keg

This Scottish ale is in its prime. For an IPA guy, I’m liking the amber to brown beers again. Cheers

Planning on leaving it alone 10 psi in the garage till next weekend for the zoom. I may sneak a pint Thursday or Friday for quality control

Nice looking ale! What did you use?

Thanks Josh. It’s a pretty complex grain bill. You really want to see the list?

Not if it’s complex lol
My Scottish is around 85% MO and the other 15% is split between medium crystal and roasted malt or chocolate. One time is went 97% MO and 3% roasted. Those 2 are FAR off I know.

Quality control tasting of the kolsch I brewed for a competition. It's been in the bottle 12 days, and hasn't been lagered yet. Carbonation is not quite ready, but it's close. This is really easy to drink It will taste even better hopefully. The color is more gold than the picture shows

Thanks!

Sure thing. Look at the BJCP 14C and you can see where I was going with this. I was avoiding a “roasty” flavor and smoke. Certainly the Scots historically didn’t have these malts, but I was going for a complex modern interpretation that turned out quite nice after a couple months of aging. I would up the Carmel a little next time as well as reducing the color. Cheers Josh.
