Mickey's Malt Liquor, it was free so therefore it's just fine

All mine are ether in bottles being conditioned or fermeting, do have a Bud in fridge son-in-law left here.

Turned down a buttwiper and a strohs taday, so went home and have a few of my summer blondes. Then finished off a bottle of Devil's Cut. Feelin purty good about now.

I had a couple of my Citra Blondes yesterday. This summer heat is just too intense and they went down so smooth.

Couldn't stand it any longer!!!! Got a bottle each of Uncle Monkey's Dunkel and Howling Red Ale put em in the fridge for cool down. Only been in the bottle for 2 weeks but hay it's ether that or drink the Bud of son-in-laws (ehww). Got to have a taste, but its ok they are the last bottle form each LBK (oh yeah I did tip the keg for the last few drops. I know it won't be the best because of only 2 wks in bottles but hay sue me! Can't wait till Saturday or Sunday, Saturday or Sunday, Saturday or Sunday.............

John, your posts warm my heart.
They take me back to days I remember oh so well. Will they be your best beers, probably not, but they will be beers that you made and that will make them so much better. You are at the top of the slide my friend (and we have no problem pushing you down it), enjoy the ride, there's beer at the end.

Mongo only pawn in game of life.

I've been into my Octoberfest Mod Gen IV and my Pale Ale (PHP Mod Gen V) tonite.

I had dialed in the PHP Mod after Gen II but it took until Gen IV to get the Octofest right. No zinc from "stainless" washers this time (Gen I) and no overbearing or mismatched hops which I did on Gen's II and III.

Now...what do I brew up next?

Down to 3 Bubs' Pale Ales after the one I had tonight. It's been around for a while and has become earthy and kinda tart. Not the same flavor when as when it's young. Might be using the rest for beer batter.

Had a Zombiekiller, then did flights, with stepson and a friend, of my Dawg LB Pale Ale, Citra Slapped Amber, Oktoberfestiv-Ale, Virgin Montucky Mud Cherry Stout, and Mid-Summer Xmas Ale. The CITRA and the Cherry Stout are bottle conditioned from Feb. and March and really conditioned nicely. We're much better last night than they were even 3 or 4 weeks ago.

Some more Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale which was purchased back in Dec. or Jan., still good stuff.

Newcastle Bombshell.

SWMBO found them on sale at a local grocery store today and decided to try a sixer.
I found it surprisingly good, with a malty flavor!

Oh, it's in brown bottles too which is even better.

Drinking a Spencer Trappist Ale clone brew I bottled back in May; tasty!

I'm drinking what I think is the last bottle of the Chimay yeast dark patersbier I brewed last year. I have never liked this beer as much as the 3787 variant of the same which was delicious. This one doesn't have all the wonderful flavors that 3787 makes, just some less interesting yet obtrusive spices and a hint of banana. It's gotten even less flavorful with age, but I actually think I like it better now then with the flavors that it had when it was fresh. Now it tastes like something simple like Yuengling might make, instead of slightly weird stuff.
