May 12th - Halifax

Post by chalmers » Mon May 04, 2015 5:41 pm

Hi folks,

May 12th is the second Tuesday of the month, let's start the thread now to gauge interest. It also happens to be during NS Craft Beer Week, but I think we have them beat by 29 years... :)

I *believe* someone on the peninsula was going to offer up his place, but I'll let him speak up.

Oh, and I have been holding on to two bottles each of Hopslam and Head Hunter to share with everyone! Sorry, freshness police.

Julio's Liquor was amazing. Almost ready :) Room for 2 more bottles. I'll be sure to post another pic when I return and let you pick something for the next meeting.

Good luck! That looks like way too little padding, unless each bottle was then wrapped in a pair of socks or underwear.

Well if we are doing the gluten free thing, I have a double IPA to bring.

I've got two cans, I'll bring them both! Is the Double IPA yours, or commercial?

It is mine. So probably not very exciting. It isn't as good as my first attempt at a DIPA. This one is drier and pine-ier and used ringwood which strips out the bitter and the aroma from hops. But I'm going to add some amirrillo to the keg now that it clear. See if that brightens it back up.

Oh and I have a king goblin that I picked up in NB. Probably not very exciting either but I always enjoyed it and hobgoblin before I found out about the celiac disease.
