Looks pretty damn good. How much blackberries for what size batch?
HaHa!
1-1/4lb in primary (wild, fresh-picked, then frozen, thawed and crushed in a hop sack); then 1lb dropped in fermenter for the last 7 days. LBK sized batch brewed on 7/28/13, bottled on 8/18/13.

I'm enjoying this simple pale that I have used to learn about different yeasts: light DME, a bit of Crystal 80 for just enough flavor to be interesting, and Kent Goldings for balanced bitterness, flavor & aroma, then the yeast.
As for beer... I'm sick, so I'm not wasting any good beers when I can't taste them (Kealia's will have to wait until I'm well)... If I have a beer, I may break out a can of Shift...

That glass looks interesting but at $25 I will have to hold off for a while.
I happen to be drinking a Spiced Caramelized Cider I had tucked away and forgotten until I discovered it in my closet today.
It like every cider I have made smells like some sort of hard liquor almost maybe scotch like. But outside of the smell the taste is fairly good. I am looking for my brew notes because I don't remember the ABV but about 8 oz has me very mellow.
Edit:
Just realized the cost was for 2 20 oz glasses not as bad as what I originally thought.
$25 for 2, but you can find them cheaper. Mine was gifted to me, but I know I've seen them below $10 per...
And I will tell you... I thought the hype for this glass was total BS until Neil set me up with a Hop Project in a normal tulip pint as well as the IPA glass. The IPA glass really kicks the aromas up... it just smacks you in the face with the hoppy goodness.

"Sierra Gold": when it was time to brew my all-grain american red ale, it was the start of a heat wave, so I decided to use T-58 yeast instead of the normal US-05. Given that, I replaced with small bit of roasted barley, which was for redish color, with aromatic malt. This has turned out great, I will make it part of my regular lineup, and I will probably enter it in a competition as a Belgian pale ale.
got a 2ltr growler of Why Golden's Ale from the Cannon Brew Pub in Columbus Ga
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Currently one of my White Wheat Hoppimania IIs. I can't believe the clarity of this beer from the keg. Especially when it is a wheat beer and I used no whirfloc on it.
I have over 9,000 posts on "another forum", which means absolutely nothing. Mr. Beer January 2014 Brewer of the Month with all the pomp and circumstance that comes with it...
