A cream ale. Not our RCE, but just a plain-jane cream. Still, going down nice paired with a jar of pickled eggs from our coup. Need to get off my duff and make our Honey Rye Cream Ale.... mmmmm
You are definitely right. I've been fast carbing for years but while it may be very drinkable, waiting for the balance a few days or a week can make a huge difference.

Yes I have only been kegging a couple years and really like it so much better then bottling. Yes one week under pressure and drink, but a little longer is better. Still faster then bottle carb.

I've been drinking that 3 way Belgian split. (100%5L, 50/50% 5L/180L, and 100% 180L).
The simple explanation is the darker the better in this case. I slightly over bittered it, the darker candi sugar adds a bit more sweetness that covers it up, but the pure 5L one is too bitter to be what it's supposed to be... it's more like a Pils. Which is not bad, just not what it's supposed to be.
Been drinking that "Belgian Stout". Half of it is great. The other half is getting dumped. It was split between fermenters and one of them had a leaking spigot. It was leaking profusely so I rapidly sanitized another fermenter and moved it into it. Well, I sanitized too rapidly and something most foul got into it. Tastes like lighter fluid mixed with black peppercorns and battery acid (or something like that). Yum.
Having a modified version of the sweet ‘Lil Red I brew a lot. I didn’t have enough redx left so had to sub some other stuff I had on hand including the hops. It still is good although I forgot to save what I put into it.
