What Homebrew Are You Drinking Now? (2020)

I haven't brewed a batch since New Year's day or thereabouts, and still have some old beer. To liven it up for the St. Patty's season, I rechristened my Scottish export as an Irish Red and poured the first pint all over again.

 

Someday I will figure out the pictures thing. I have two, an Irish Red Ale which is too dark and the wife is drinking our Cranriander Wheat. I love the Cranriander but we are coming to the end of that batch and she doesn't like the Irish as much. It is good just a little more bitter than what I had expected and about two shades darker. Drinkable and thats what matters to me.

Thanks for the assist on this one!

 

What is this one?

 

It's Oddnotion's pic for the post above mine.

 

Self quarantined besides going to work at the hospital. If there was ever a time I needed beer it’s now. On tap is an ipa with citra and denali, brown ale, traditional pilsner. In the chamber is a west coast ip with chinook and citra and a kettle sour secondary on raspberries and blueberries. Really need to kill this brown ale but drinking alone it’s gonna take some time.

 

My new "Springtoberfest" @ 5.5% ABV.

60% Barke Pils
16% Munich I
12% Munich II
8% Golden Promise (cause why not!)
2% Caramunich I
2% Acidulated

Hopped to 25 IBU with Perle (bittering) and Tettnang at 45/15min.

Fermented with W-34/70.

Good looking beer.

 

bam! Looks killer, what’s the total lagering time then ?

 

That one went into the keg on 1/22 for spunding. So it's been 8 weeks since then, but probably 7 weeks or so at true 'lager' time.

 

Extract imperial stout on tap, brewed back in October 2019, and aged for 3 months on oak cubes.

I will post pics again soon, but not sure if imgur has been showing my photos or not. Any other suggestions?

 

Berry kettle sour made with good belly then Us-05. Shoprite mixed berry bag in primary for 9 days then kegged. Pleasantly surprised.

 

NEIPA w/ Idaho 7 & Amarillo. Fermented w/ Voss Kveik. I did all whirlpool hops on this and I really miss those earlier additions. Just is kind of 1 note and no bitterness. I also left out the oats, which I'm also not liking. Not a bad beer, but just kinda meh.

 

@skleice it looks great!

 

Great look, what is the SRM color on that? Perfect orange

 

I've yet to have an all-whirlpool beer that I liked, and have stopped trying them. They just taste kinda flat, like fruit juice without the acidity.

 

Mexican Lager with Zappa hops. I experimented with this one. Fermented 53,55, then 57. Spunded with 6 points left. D-rest near my woodstove where room temps were 50-90. No off flavors and very tasty. Breaking the rules again.
