I was out in Ireland on vacation last week. Posting to confirm that the Guinness really is better over there. Drinking a Guinness at the Gravity Bar at the top of the Guinness Storehouse is pretty cool to experience.

I was surprised to find that Murphy's is not really popular over there. Most of the pubs that I went to didn't carry it; for Irish beers, they just carried Guinness, Smithwick's and Bulmer's.

My understanding is Murphy's popularity is kind of localized. Particularly in the south round the county Cork.

Yeah, that seems right from what I observed. I drove past the Murphy's/Heineken brewery in Cork, and saw some Murphy's signs around there. But that was it.

Starting my weekend with a Wicked Weed Oblivion, a pretty good sour red ale aged in red wine barrels with blackberries and dates.

Making my first home brew tonight, a Citra IPA. Just cracked a Lawsons Sip of Sunshine to commemorate the event. Awesome beer.

Don't pitch too hot and don't ferment too hot.

Pitching at 66-67* and fermenting at 65* in my temp controlled ferm chamber.

Nice. Most common mistakes in homebrew I see. I'd even pitch a touch lower, but that should work.

I figure the middle ground of the US-05 range would be best, I can go lower if need be. You thinkin 63-64*? Cuz its doable.

This Sip of Sunshine is legit. Damn good Citra beer. Almost as good as Cycle's Crank. Almost. But damn good, and 2% stronger. Big fan.

When you pitch the temp can shot up a couple digits (at least I think I remember that. Been a while since I brewed), so just under your fermentation is what I'd go for.

No problem. I happened to be at the brewery when they rolled it out into the cooler. Had no idea it was even being released so I bought half a case - some for me and some to throw into trades.

I'm enjoying a Crank IPA at the moment. Love this beer. I've got a Toppling Goliath Pseudo Sue bomber in the fridge, debating whether to drink it tonight or tomorrow.

Decided to save them for football tomorrow.

When you said 32oz can for Crank I thought that was a typo. I was pleasantly surprised when it was actually a 32 oz can when I opened the box.

Gonna have a Johnson IIPA from Lakefront and call it a night.

 

[Ilov80s]

2013 BCS and Clown Shoes Vampire Slayer.

The 2012 BCCS had little coffee and was more like a chocolate stout. I'm not sure if the coffee was lost in age, but early reviews do suggest it wasn't very coffee forward compared to other versions. It was outstanding though.

Fantastic beer. Very similar to Cycle's Crank.

Ditka, you drink that one yet?

 

[Buckfast 1]

I stumbled upon Cantillon Rosè de Gambrinus raspberry lambic on tap at Falling Rock today. That was a nice surprise treat.

I also had a Russian River Consecration and Comrade Superpower IPA.

The 3rd round of Beer It Forward is here. Do you want 3 free beers? Are you willing to pass 3 beers on? Long Ball Larry is ready to donate beers to the next winner.

You get one guess per 24 hours. I was born in 1982, who is my favorite Detroit Tiger of all time?

 

[Wingnut]

Revolution Anti Hero, courtesy of Ditka311. I like it, its a pretty good IPA.

 

[Wingnut]

Can't do the BIF but I'd guess Trammell.

Not sure why you can't, but to help future guessers, it isn't Alan Trammell.
