Erisian Brewer's Cadre. Or: How I saw the Goddess in the first place

[Jenne]

Whoa!  am IMPRESSED yet AGAIN!

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Here it is in a glass:


Already drinkable, good head retention, lighter body than Bell's, smooth and easy. Niiiice.

I need to find a Sam's or BJ's where I can buy a palette of limeade for this venture. I need to make at least 5 gallons.

We used frozen concentrate by minute maid, no chemical preservatives.
Ten cans makes 5 gallons.

Here:
10 cans frozen limeade
4 gallons boiled water
2 lbs sugar
1 pack champagne yeast

Oooh, great idea!

Want.

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Ok, so we tested it on a bunch of people and here's the verdict:

The color is maybe a half a shade off from Bell's, it isn't as hoppy so no sneezing, it's slightly lighter bodied, a little less with the in your face orangey citrus and a lot easier to drink.

Side by side test with the Two Hearted, everyone liked ours better.

SUCCESS!!

I added the Kaluha and chipotles to my foreign extra stout today.  Those had been soaking together for three weeks.  I strained about 1/2 an ounce out to taste and it was wonderful.  I will have to make more of that stuff, just for sipping on.

I also brewed another Russian Imperial Stout today.  Sometime next winter, I'll let you know how it turned out.

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Oh man. I want to taste so bad.

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Mr Squid just put together a black rye ale last night.
It isn't black but it's dark. Definitely can taste the rye.

I may not be an expert (yet), but the taste of the stout I had was very good.     I liked.

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Yeaaaay! I was afraid it didn't make it in one piece.
It's modeled after Rasputin, so if it reminded you of that then we did good.
It was also really young ad should have aged for a good year, but we wee excited to get into it.
The newer things are going to be better.

Squid's beer, even after being shipped cross country and settled in teh fridge for 2 weeks, was NOT fucking around.  Light would not penetrate it.  Great flavor, almost reminiscent of a coffee porter, but with spicyness. 

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

Awesome. I'm glad you guys didn't hate it 

We are working on our turkish coffee stout right now.
We're adding cardamom to a sweet coffee stout. Hope it turns out good.

It's exploding in the brew closet.
We have to keep cleaning out the blow off tube cause it keeps sludgin over.

This might be a little strong.
