Looks beautiful.
Birmingham, Al. Lotsa good beers. Another one is Back Forty Brewing in Gadsden,Al.Not heard of that brewery
Lol, I love the mug.View attachment 30307
Shit. forgot to attach the picture before.
Nice!Half and Half. I haven’t tried this in a long time so the pour wasn’t perfect. I was a bit clumsy, took too long with the stout and couldn’t get a proper head. But damn, this is one of those drinks where the sum is greater than the parts.

That's brilliant. Never crossed my mind.Nice!
I haven't done that for a while either. I usually use a wheat on the bottom. Sometimes I can get an apricot wheat, or a raspberry wheat. The blended flavors are outstanding.
I like that one not had in a while thoughView attachment 30329
Last night on the plane...complete with lounge lighting..I never had this before and I was pleasantly surprised and have concluded that the best west coast IPA I've had so far are brewed there...or maybe Chicago in this case...
Nice! Would love to hear your take on that Maple Brown. Does the maple actually come through without tasting…um…artificial? If the maple really shines, I need to figure out how they did it!It's a rare thing to find a variety pack where you like every beer in it I love fall beers!

Your patience and perseverance on this one is certainly admirable! Congrats on the tasty brew. Cheers!21 month old Imperial Stout.
Some of you might remember a thread I started about this beer and how I couldn’t get it to carbonate in the bottle. I ended up uncapping the bottles, adding yeast and then recapping. That definitely worked.
This beer is really hitting its stride. Nice chocolate notes, a bit of vanilla, some coffee roast, alcohol warmth. But at 11.5% it is a bit of a bully…after half a glass, it’s starting to push me around a bit. Definitely would be best shared, but shhh…don’t tell. I’m sure the bomber bottle doesn’t help. Would go great with a cigar, but I hate cigars.
Anyway, I could improve this recipe, but I am a bit smitten with this first crack at the style.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Rule #1 for engineering. Rule #2 has something to do with messing with Mrs. Murphy, and #3 describes the results of breaking #2.Anyway, I could improve this recipe, but I am a bit smitten with this first crack at the style.

Probably in secondary/brite tank.Nice! Would love to hear your take on that Maple Brown. Does the maple actually come through without tasting…um…artificial? If the maple really shines, I need to figure out how they did it!
