Hanging out with Seth
D3 gets another horse so we went over to meet him.
I don't have any interest in hopping on this hay burner.

IPA #34
Brew date 5/8/15
I figure it's time for a IPA so I dropped by the shop and picked up some supplies.
As usual I start with 10 lbs of two row, but I did switch it up a bit. Instead of grabbing the garden variety, I picked up this one:
I'm told it has a tad bit of body to it. Next I grabbed 4 oz of biscuit for the rest of the body. Just a hint.
And then for some color, 2 oz of chocolate wheat:
Two oz of hops:
And the std us#5 yeast.
Should be ready in 4 weeks.
Here's a pic of Uncle Jim's mash tun:
6 glorious gallons. The mash tun is big enough and the boiling pot is big enough and a 6 gallon Carboy just makes it easier to end up with more than five gallons.

Block Prints and Beer Flights
My daughter received a block printing kit for Christmas and so she went straight to work.
This is test print number 1. I insisted in having print number 1.
Can you see the description at the bottom? It says Terrestrial Gastropod Mollusk.
It just happens that she is seeing this French guy. His sway on her must be pretty strong for her to start drawing and block printing snails. When she starts eating them, I'm having no part in that.
Anyway, he's an alright guy. When he came to meet the family he came bearing gifts, to me. Here is a pic of the empties. All IPA's from craft brewers in Quebec.
I elected to share this with everybody so we had two tastings, one Friday evening and the next Saturday afternoon. The Saturday tasting included cigars on the smoking porch. The craft beers were all very good and we, the beer tasters, thought they were all quite tasty.
We did throw my last brew in the flights, just to mix things up. While the black ale was a completely different style from the pale ales, it did compete.
Well that's all for now. Till next time.
