This one has been the best batch I have ever brewed and/or bottled. It racked off wonderfully and almost every bottle was clear by the end of the night. I miss counted the number of bottles initially and was scrambling for some "short-fatties" and the usual long necks, so I am going to have to go back and drink some more Old Dutch Windmill (yea). Wayne & Caleb-- from the Valley chapter, showed up and helped with a massive bottling operation that yielded 54 full bottles!! Enjoyed a couple of stoagies and listened to the Donald say, "You're hired" to Bill. See people that smoke cigars do go far in life;) E-train and Steph eventually showed up but I am still contemplating whether or not this newbie and seasoned vet should get a nostalgia bottle. (probably so) Played some hellacious darts where the 12 did us in every time. All in all this may the be the best one yet. Used the colored crowns from www.baderbrewing.com So the EPA batches to follow will be green-on-green using the short-necked 12oz.
FG 1.006+0.001@68.6F bringing the percentage to 6.86% which is right in line with Chris and our new buddy at 205-657-5029 knows The Marines and 5-0 are coming for ray ray and eddie g. Hope that deal with Gustavo went well.
