THE BEER THREAD(?)----->!!!

[Iommic Pope]

Just popped a bottle of Berliner Weisse i had been bulk fermenting for the past 2 years.
Light as a feather and sour as hell!
I have named it the "Bubonic Teutonic."
I should have made more.

That sounds fucking fantastic.
Also, great name!

the Moloko Milk Stout was also tasty.

That looks and sounds really interesting.
How does a milk stout work?

I was able to have a glass of this last night:



It was a damn good beer. It's wine cask aged, and also spiked with brettanomyces, so it was also a bit sour. Fantastic beer.

Milk stouts have lactose added during the brewing process to add sweetness that doesn't get eaten up by the yeast.

Nashville launch party for Founders tonight! I get to drink some KBS and Centennial tonight!

[pelliott]

Ugghhhhh had some super fresh Centennial and Red's Rye, as well as KBS at the event. Had such a good time with friends. Just kicking back with a Zombie Dust now. Such a good beer day. Much needed.

I seriously cannot get enough of this stuff.

I bet that Dogfish Head was delicious.

I picked up a couple of bottles of Ommegang's Fire and Blood red ale. I'm a huge Game of Thrones and beer dork, so I always get excited about these beers.

As far as taste, it's different than most other red ales I've had. Tastes Belgian, which isn't surprising. They also brewed it with some sort of chilies, which is a cool touch given the inspiration.

Very boozy actually. Something like 18% for that bad boy (the two Avery's were no slouches though at 14.9 and 15.4) Our order from least to greatest (all of them were solid fucking great beers though) was:
World Wide Stout
Mephistopheles
Uncle Jacobs

The Uncle Jacobs was so incredibly complex with so many different tastes popping out. The Mephistopheles was like the non-burbon barrel aged version of it. Both were very very good though.

This was tonight's though; best Enjoy By so far:

Founders is big down there?! Awesome!! It's local to me. REALLY wanted to try that KBS but it sold out wicked fast..

[pelliott]

This was the first time Founders was available in Nashville, and most of Tennessee.

It's the shit

mini-necro bump 'cause it's been a grip.

saw all of the rad metal bands at Dark Lord Day yesterday. Kept money spending to a minimum by drinking mostly beers that we packed. Bought a pint of Zombie Dust because it's like Mr. Pibb and Red Vines (see: crazy delicious).

Did, however, come home with two bottles of Dark Lord Russian Imperial Stout for myself and two for a friend.



Gonna sit on these for awhile. Might try to take on to the fest next year (assuming I go) and kill it then amongst friends. It's motor oil thick and not my favorite beer of all times but I felt compelled to buy this year.
