Belgian Tripel at the moment.



It's still priming, but it has already gained carbonation. The yeast that I was supposed to use expired, so I tossed in a bit of ale yeast. After a week of fermentation, it will be be ready. Currently, it has the taste of a Scottish ale. 

Commit suicide.

I'll slit my throat with your edge.

That's neat, me and the boys used to shine up honey mixed with water instead of corn mash and let me tell you that shit would kick you in the dick, steal your wallet, and your shoes, and then you'd say thank you.

Sounds tasty.

My father works at a local distillery and returns with 196 proof, neutral spirits. It either derives from cane sugar or high wine.

Mix that shit with egg nog.

I call it an evernog.

I mixed it with apple juice and my friends became toasted.

"Edge" jokes are so 2014.

So is being edgy.

Not bad. I used to make my own IPA's. The divorse put a hold on that. Been thinking about trying my hand at Mead.

I am going for mead next, but orange blossom honey is quite pricey.

Amazon is actually ok in pricing. Something like $14 a pound.

Will you mix in juniper berries?

Only for as long as Imperial walls make you feel safe

I need at least five pounds.

I have enough supplies in beer to make 100+ gal. An owner of a pub gave us a bunch of varying ingredients. The last beer I worked on was a mocha stout.

Ohhh...

Now you're talking my language. If you lived in SD, I'd make you my new best friend.

BTW, add cinnamon and a bit of a spicy pepper. A Mexican mocha is better. Just try it on a small batch, trust me.

I am actually going for an Oatmeal stout next. Cinnamon is a must.

My father was a brewmaster at a local pub long ago. He has passed down his ways of producing these drinks. Each batch is 5gal or so.
