Fresh Hop was just that, a decent hoppy IPA. I know this was made literally with fresh hops (within 24 hours of getting them in the NW to Colorado), pretty floral but pretty on par with other IPAs out there.

Last night's choices were Rogue Santa's private reserve (not bad at all) and Buffalo Bill's Original Pumpkin Ale (meh -- decent for about 8 oz, then just got tired of the flavor).

Tonight, I am sipping on a Sam Adams Wee Heavy, which is great, but the Scotch Ales are my favorite, so no big shock there.

Instead of trying to figure out what the other hasn't Bought for themselves this year, my brother and I are swapping six packs of specialty beers, crazier the better. I've already ordered voodoo, what else should I get him?

keeping with Rogue, i saw this at Central Market last week. Might make for a fun addition for a wacky 6 pack "Captain Sigs Northwestern Ale"

spartan didn't like it. in fact she started coughing and dying. I on the other hand am enjoying it. i may grab another one or two to store for a little while since apparently it gets better with age?

Aggie00:

Though I haven't had that brew by Clown Shoes, the ones I have had were excellent. I had an imperial russian stout the other day that was 10.2%. It was nice, but he brewer/name is escaping me at the moment.

Also, how long have you been homebrewing? Just started in October. It is all kind of addicting. Brewing only extract+steep right now looking to go partial. I have an Irish Red IPA that I'm bottling tonight plus 5 gals of 9% apfelwein that I'm bottling tonight as well.

Went with these for my brother's Christmas sixer, the voodoo will be here next Wednesday

All the other clown shoes I've had have been pretty tasty.

As for homebrewing, I've only been at it for 6 months, but I've taken to it. I've had a lot of really good beers. I do partials right now b/c I don't have a mash run, although I did one small batch of all grain. I'm taking a break until after the holidays, b/c I have too much beer that needs to be drunk...close to 300 bottles.

Man i've been in a homebrewing slump. I did a whole bunch late last year when i built my keezer, had 6 gallons going, did another batch in late winter/spring.. stopped for the summer, but haven't done one since cooler weather yet.

I still have ~2-3 kegs worth of beer though.

Homebrewing is allsome.

I'm actually involved with "investors" so all of my 5 gal batches are split.

With that said, I will have a 6.5 gal, 6 gal & 2 5 gal fermenters open next week. It will be a fun week of beer making!

I'm with you on not having a mash tun yet. I am going to have one by Feb at the latest.

I want to homebrew a Maredsous clone soooo bad!

Last night's dessert:



I have never had Lagunitas Brown Shugga, so I do not know what I missed by not being able to have it this year. That being said, I would buy this one again.

These just came in. Can't stand that I have to wait until Christmas to open them...

Old Foghorn is not a year round but they usually ship in enough to try and let people buy up so that it lasts as long as possible. Bigfoot does the same thing.

Sysyphus is also in a 12oz bottle and this years is already out.
