Yusta B. Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Just picked & dried about 1# of genuine Texas grown Cascade hops. No, it's not OT 'cause I'm gonna brew up a Corny keg of Split Rail IPA & take it to Comin-at-Cha ! Yippee !

No, it's not OT 'cause I'm gonna brew up a Corny keg of Split Rail IPA & take it to Comin-at-Cha ! Yippee ! Man I can hardly wait to move to Texas. IPA is my favorite brew. We just went to a shoot in OR, and then went to Lefty Winchester's memorial. In between, we stopped at a pub, and man did they brew some wonderful IPA. Nice floral characters, with a nice bitter afterbite.
Cheyenne Culpepper 32827 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Yusta B, see yuze at the Open!!!!!!!!!!! Cheyenne
Oddnews SASS# 24779 Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 I don't care for IPA's generally -- but I'm very impressed that you grew your own hops (I'm a dark-beer guy. I like porters and stouts -- or in the summertime a traditional, esthery Bavarian wheat beer).
Grizzly Dave Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Yusta B, we missed you at the Shootout at Pawnee Station! Glad to hear you're alive and well.
Yusta B. Posted August 24, 2012 Author Posted August 24, 2012 Hey Grizz, Woulda been fun but just a leeeeetle bit too far to drive. Oddnews - sort of a lite IPA - I think you'd like it. My son brews 90 Shilling - right up your alley !
Clueless Bob Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 Silly question, but is that anything like a good English bitter?? When I was stationed there, I got a strong likeing for it, but could never remember the calling. Some folks just called a bitter, others included IPA. I'm sure I would have remembered if I stopped early, but was so good, well I just had to have another!! LOL. :)
Yusta B. Posted August 24, 2012 Author Posted August 24, 2012 Probably closer to Guinness than a bitter. Dark English Ale. ( The 90 Shilling, that is)

I prefer the pale ales and IPAs, but a porter is not bad on occasion.
