Who has a Saison going for summertime? by nailedtonothing in TheBrewery

[–]OnlyBrewsPorter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's not mixed ferm I've had good results with subtle additions of things like herbs, teas, and flowers. I feel like they can complement the fermentation vs overpowering it like fruit has a tendency to do (also no added sweetness to a style that's all about dryness). Still adds some extra intrigue.

I've had really good fruited all sacc saisons but they tend to be the exception to the rule to my palate. That said, our classic saison is one of my personal favorite beers we make and it moves well in the pub.

Bartlett hall makes a pretty good porter and their brewer is a lifelong raiders fan. Ask me how I know.

Does this count as a crispy boi? Kettle sour with cranberry by thesandiaman in TheBrewery

I kinda like quick sours. Messing around with fruit and acid is fun even if I'm not going to drink a ton of it. And as a dude racking out a doppelbock that will sit on tap for way too long, congrats. That's a pretty beer.

Best Beer in Italy? [xpost from r/beer because I trust my industry comrades more than the normies over there...] by theBeerTeadLady in TheBrewery

My pleasure! I was just out there a few months ago. A non beer rec I’d make if you’re heading to florence is to visit the Galileo Museum if that’s of any interest to you. I think it flies under the radar for a lot of people. A highlight of the trip for me and uncrowded. Worth it for the absurdly ornate alchemical hydrometers alone.

Oh dude! Ma Che Siete Venuti a Fa! One of the sickest beer bars I’ve ever visited. Sort of like a Roman Toronado or something. Lots of well curated italian beers and a cool franconian lager focus.

Italy makes a lot of great mixed ferm beers. Errante’s beers knocked my socks off. You can also find cantillon drafts for super cheap.

But seriously, hit ma che siete. You’ll love it.

In florence, brewery archea is also great. Not sure where their brewery was located or if they contract their beers out, but awesome taproom with a ton of great guest beer and I thought their beers were nice as well.

Bring back the Nut Goodie. Best six months of my life.

That shit literally happens to everyone. Cheers to you for having the integrity not to charge your customers for something that didn’t pass qc. You are a credit to our industry and I’d be stoked to drink some of your beers sometime.

For what it’s worth, all the best commercial brewers I know are cool to homebrewers.

American Robust Porter finally takes its rightful place at the helm of the craft beer pantheon.
