What are you drinking right now?

Lalbrew Voss

I did not like what that yeast did for my Janet’s Brown Ale.
On the other hand, I love what Imperial Loki (Voss) did for my IPA of the 3 C’s.
Something to consider for future brews?

I've never understood putting Voss in a brown/dark beer personally, way too much orange and twang. I've enjoyed the samples from the 2 Lutra Kveik brews I've done, so I'm not giving up on kveik, just taking a timeout from Voss maybe (after my next brew; I'm giving Voss one more shot).

I feel kviek is better suited to IPA hoppy pales personally the crazy fruity flavors compliment the hops nicely

The only exception I can think of is if someone is going for a chocolate orange stout/porter or something. Like a jaffa cake beer lol

I think at the time it was, hey try this new thing. I didn’t know any better. So next time I brew Janet’s Brown Ale (sometime this autumn), I’ll use a Cali or West Coast liquid yeast - or US-05.

Passionfruit saison

And Lemon myrtle Saisons

Yup I've been on a bit of a saison kick of late .

Going to an Oktoberfest tomorrow so I'm prepping my palate the far right is my homebrewed marzen that's only been in the bottle a week and has not been lagered yet (hence the chill haze). The middle beer is Sierra Nevada's Oktoberfest and the left is Star Hills Festie festbier. Both of the commercial beers have more flavor than mine, and are more bitter I think. Mine also has a light alcohol taste, but that's in style according to the BJCP guidelines for a Marzen.

I hope to maybe find some Oktoberfest happenings, or at least beer, while on vacation next week in sunny Palm Springs, CA. There are a couple brewery pubs just a short walk from our accommodations.

First pour of my Octoberfest beer, still not ready but not to bad

Love the name. You sure you're not from Brooklyn??

 

[SabreSteve]

Drinking a "remastered" Boston lager that's supposed to be brighter and easier drinking. That apparently means less malty and more hoppy. Not a fan. They ruined an American classic. Is this how you all older guys felt when they replaced Coke with new Coke?

Oh don't get me started on the new coke shell game!
The world hasn't been the same since!

 

[Donoroto]

Ha! New Coke, biggest marketing disaster ever. Ever.

 

[Herm brews]

Well I’m drinking my own, slightly overcarbonated Belgian Dubbel.

Amarillo blonde is mellowing out

My Sierra Nevada pale ale

At Las Palmas Brewing Co. in Palm Springs, CA. I’m drinking 54, their French Saison, while she’s drinking Fall, their dark lager. Both are nice beers.
