I did a Tripel for my mother-in-law, whose name I drew for the family Secret Santa. This was the same beer that I posted about earlier with a cough syrup flavor. Tried it this morning and (thankfully!) the cough syrup flavor is almost gone. It pours a beautiful copper color and has a nice bit of Coriander flavor. Here’s a shot of the label I did on the 50cl bottles I used. Anybody else do something similar? Merry Christmas!
Very nice!!!
I gave my dad a whole 5gal batch for Christmas. I normally do labels for my beers (or at least design one) but I was lazy. It was brewed, fermented, and bottled all within 1 week. It was a 3.5% stout. It was duly named “Short Stack”. Besides being a little thin for a stout, it’s got great flavor and you can drink a bunch of em.
“It was brewed, fermented, and bottled all within 1 week.”
Gutsy guy!!!
He couldn’t make up his mind about what he wanted. I kept telling him, “you gotta let me know what you want”. He didn’t get back to me until I said that today was the absolute threshold and I needed to brew.
I think he likes giving me a challenge.
