Finishing the end of a keg of ginger saison homebrew, kegged on 6/8/14; 7.7% ABV. This one is quite flavorful. It was interesting to brew: 3 step mash, adding freshly grated ginger root to the last 22 to 7 minutes of the boil, every minute. Looks like i'll brew this one up again this summer!

Dag, I've heard that you have never refused a beer! Anyway, the choice was Miller Light tap or Bud Light bottle. And I didn't want to try washing down the chicken wings with pride! :)

Had one of Phil's Summer Quenchers. Perfect name as I had one after mowing the lawn and it hit the spot! A simple, crisp and clean beer that left me wanting another.

Nothing for the next few days.....beer fest yesterday and I think I sprained my kidney....or liver......or maybe my spleen, I dunno.

Taking a few days off to cleanse the system after the hop assault yesterday. Going to workout now and hopefully sweat some out. Not feeling hungover, just beered-out.

What is this nonsense you speak?

I'm drinking the Blonde Bier de Garde that I made that tastes a lot like Jenlain. Except maybe even better. I would have entered it in a competition, but it got some kind of critter chewing on it in the bottle and it ended up over carbed - no gushers, no off flavors, but now it's starting to become "foamers" as such. So I threw all of it in the fridge, and I'm just drinking that until it's gone. It's really delicious, just over carbed.
