Like Whynot, life has been hectic. Mine more so from work than anything else, but that gets in the way of everything else I'd like to be doing. That's one reason for the 11 gallon batches I've been making. Brewing has become something I have to try and work into my schedule. Even the DoH, Three Amigos plus 1, how ever we're referred by everyone have had a lull between us and I don't like that.
Enough about that, now on to how great the END of my day was. So I check the mailbox after walking the dogs to find a USPS box. Oh, it has my name on it, OH!!!!!!!! it has Ron's return address. Holey Cr*p I've got BEER MAIL!!!! This is the best day ever......no the best MONTH ever!!
Thank You Ron they are in the fridge chilling.

Haven't had the Fresh Squeezed yet but that Big Daddy was refreshing.
You can't tell from that shot but if you turn the bottle of Marilyn over you can see under her dress.
<yes, I said that>

I drank my Fresh Squeezed already. It's absolutely awesome. They got the name right, because it tastes like juice. So much you could drink it in the morning instead of orange juice. It may just be my new favorite IPA of all time, yea it's that good. I'm going to the store tomorrow to see if I can find it. And if they don't have it, I'm going to ask the manager if he can get it in.

Dude, that reaction is exactly why it's fun to share beers!
I should tell you that Marilyn hasn't been tested yet. You may want to pull that one out. It's the Maris Otter 15-minute pale ale test. I have one chilling for testing this weekend but it's untasted right now.
I'm brewing a test batch of a Fresh Squeezed clone either this weekend or next. I'll let you guys know how it turns out and share the recipe if it's any good. Luckily, I can always do a head-to-head test since I can get the real thing easily.
Enjoy!

Is she
fertile carbed? or does she need to sit out some more to be
fertile carbed? Is that why I should pull out?

Must....tame.....response.......
It's been in the bottle for 4 weeks now so it's carbed. I just found that the last time I did a quickie batch like this is was better at two months than young. I say pull it out (cough) and wait until you're told to put it back in.

I look at life this way. "If it weren't for sex, none of us would be here"
You can quote me on that.
