My bourbon barrel pale ale. My son was visiting from NYC this past week and drank about half the remaining ones from my last batch so I will need to brew this again soon.

My Rye IPA. Lots of firsts with this one. First brew in my new 8 gallon kettle, first full volume BIAB, first recipe plugged into Beersmith, first time doing a hop stand.
Didn't quite hit my numbers, but all in all I'm pretty pleased, good bitterness without being too harsh, with just a touch of rye, and, it doesn't show in the photo, but it's clear enough for me to read my monitor through it

I actually thought of you BB when I was working on the recipe. I pulled some inspiration from Ruthless Rye, which I seem to remember you having a fondness for.
The hop profile on this taste similar to ruthless, and the bit of rye rounds it all out.

Drank a couple of homebrewed Simcoe Pale Ales after work, now I'm tasting some Ninkasi Brewing Dawn of the Red IRA Ale... An aromatic IPA under a new name. Good beer!

Victory Swing Session Saison.
It's a saison. Its dry. It's spicy and a bit funky. I think they used a Belgian strain, it's not tart/citrusy, just dry. And I'm missing that compared to my own saisons. It's very thin in the body department, but that is to be expected as a hyper attenuated 4% beer. I make lots of what I consider session Saisons, but they end up more around 5-5.5%. Its supposed to have wheat and oats in it, but I think they filtered out all the goodness they bring to the mouthfeel to get it crystal clear. I would drink it again if someone handed me one, but I'd rather drink my own, or ones with a Naked Cat on the label.
