Yet it doth make a man fatte, and doth inflate the bely, as it doth appere by the doche mennes faces and belyes.

The Beer Warrior Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 01/12/09 Posts: 1338 Loc: Hendersonville, TN	You may have to wait for those tasting notes, this one has to ferment for another 15 months. The initial fermentation was done in a bucket, that is what BYO suggested. It will now age in the carboy for around 12 months. I have a 5 gallon wood barrel that I will transfer this beer into and age for 3-4 months. I may add some cherries to this at some point. _________________________ Primary: Dutchess De Bourgogne Clone Take 2, Berliner Weisse Take 3 Secondary: Jolly Pumpkin La Roja clone & Dutchess De Bourgogne Clone & Theakston's Old Peculiar Clone On Tap: Berliner Weisse, Peach Wheat, & Blonde On Deck: APA Helles (maybe)

High_Iron Nice Head!! Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 12/05/10 Posts: 1212 Loc: Long Island	I am impressed with your patience. I have never had a sour, is there a commercial brand I could look for so I can give one a try? _________________________ Sean

I know the Bowery Whole Foods beer store sometimes has them (and other sours), so you may want to check the beer section of your Whole Foods. _________________________ CCBBA Yeast Trials Favorite recipes: Drunken Druid (Mr. Beer),JPA (All Grain)...there are more that go here, I will add them later.

The Beer Warrior Ultimate Mr. Beer Fan Registered: 01/12/09 Posts: 1338 Loc: Hendersonville, TN	If you are going to try a sour for the very first time I would suggest Duchess De Bourgogne. It is sour but not too sour, not a whole lot of vinegar taste. You get some cherry notes and a nice malt backbone with a nice funky nose to it. $11-15 for a large bomber that comes in at around 6% ABV. _________________________ Primary: Dutchess De Bourgogne Clone Take 2, Berliner Weisse Take 3 Secondary: Jolly Pumpkin La Roja clone & Dutchess De Bourgogne Clone & Theakston's Old Peculiar Clone On Tap: Berliner Weisse, Peach Wheat, & Blonde On Deck: APA Helles (maybe)
