"Sex in a Glass"
That's what my wife has dubbed my Oak-aged Vanilla Imperial Porter. It works for me. I'm not sure that all you mere mortals out there in blogland are worthy to taste this stuff, but I might be indulgent at the next meeting (April 15th). For those of you that don't plan on attending - woe. Woe and dispair. Otherwise you will have to drop by pub Sever and have a draft pint of it. At 7.5% ABV (not that you'd know it when drinking it), this stuff will definitely get your groove on... Its a lusty brew.
Marty came over to pick up the rebuilt corny and drop off one to be emptied - his "Newark Daze" ale from the Newark Food & Brew fest last year. Its good stuff - SO I'll either have it empty by the time he needs another - or I'll exchange him another rebuilt keg. We sat around and chatted, brewed my Rainy Day IPA (very aptly named for today's climate), and generally relaxed.
The inaugural run of my 3-roll mill from Crankandstein ROCKED. That thing is a grain BEAST. It cracked all the husks leaving them mostly intact and chewed the kernels into the perfect size. I'm very impressed. It was worth the expense.
