LOL... and as Roger rightly put it... worst case scenario... you get beer. This is a good hobby.

I finally got a chance to brew today since June.
Just made a simple pale ale with all home grown cascade hops. The hops smelled amazing!
Looking forward to this one.
Mostly maris otter some oats and biscuit malt.
Should be a decent beverage...
 :cheers:

You'd think with the pandemic we would all be brewing our brains out. I just got lazy and was getting kegs from Grimross.  :drink:

Finally time to get the dark ales going. Probably going to get a oatmeal stout on tomorrow.

Brewed up a black IPA on the weekend. I'm tired of waiting for Grimross to bring theirs back!

What's with the resurgence of the Black IPA lately?  Notice it on the cover of Craft Beer and Brewing Magazine this morning and I seem to be seeing it everywhere again.  I remember Trailway putting out Black Ops a few years ago, but haven't seen any others in NB or NS in a while.

Probably cause they are delicious  :drink:

I would guess people are getting tired of the current 'phase' (sours) and black IPA is different enough.

Black IPA / Cascadian Dark Ale - there was a considerable disagreement at one time in brewing circles as to which of these was the "correct" term, and if they meant the same thing. Moving on... this Black IPA in the club archive is an amazing example: http://nbcba.org/forum/tried-and-true/black-black-like-your-heart-ipa-v2/ It was originally developed by
(EDIT: OOPS, FIXED.) Richard. It's been brewed many, many times over the years.

Hey all,

What are you brewing these days?
I just brewed an IPA to get back into the swing of it. I'm thinking of brewing a Porter next.
I always had a running list of what I wanted to brew next, but it seems that I'm getting back to basics and building the pipeline with some stuff I know and want back again.
I might dig out my old notes and get a bit more fancy as I go. Also, I think my basement is about 14C these days so that narrows my choices for fermentation. I do have control over my temps to a certain extent, but I do brew with the seasons.

I gravitated towards clones. I think I will clone a Deschutes Porter next.

Hope all is well.

I brewed a NEIPA before Christmas and I've got a stout ready for kegging now. Hopefully I'll be able to get my co2 filled soon...

I have a stout ready to be transferred to secondary on top of a bunch of sour cherries  :drink:

Brewed a Czech Pilsner just before Xmas that is finally turning clear and is drinkable.  Friday afternoon I'll be brewing a Triple NEIPA.
