Suds of the Day

[CarsonCindy]

This thread has been started to talk about the beers you all are drinking today :thumb:

To start it off, today we are drinking BRUX by Sierra Nevada and Russian River! Mmmmm good! :yup:

 

[Chairokey]

Wow beer in a wine bottle! That's new to me here in Abilene Texas. What a neat idea! Tonight it's just a can of Budweiser but I do love a Heineken

 

[Honey Badger]

Rogue Brutal IPA in a shitty hotel room. How's the brux?

Yep,the beer makes the room palatable. Lol. Did they use a wild Belgium yeast strain?

I'm having a hard time deciding. Help me choose. Oh wait, I can have both.

you would have to get all technical on me :cheesy:

unfortunately, i don't know for sure. what the bottle says is that the beer is "refermented in the bottle with Brettanomyces bruxellensis". it says "Brux will change and develop over time. copper-colored, dry and complex, with slightly tart notes of green grass, pear, spice and lemon. i definitely taste dryness, the tart notes and spices and enjoy them a lot.

You'd think Texas would be great for Beer.... But Abilene, Waco, Longview: I could have looked harder, but people seem confused when I ask about local craft brews. I've had the same trouble in San Antonio. Addison, on the north side of Dallas has a bar that serves up some rare stuff.

When I get back home I'll post some pics of the tasty suds I picked up in Wisconsin last week...

funny, but now that you mention it, i must say that i haven't come across any craft brews from texas.

I decided to go with a Marzen Madness from Indian wells.

 

[ichthus]

Sounds like you need to grab a few bottles of Brux and let them age a bit.

Yep, they brew lambics with that stuff. You should get a couple bottles and age them...it will get funky.

:cheesy: is that a nice way of saying "sour"

This place should be called AA:thumb:

 

[Honey Badger]

It may get sour, but I think it may bring out some of the "farmhouse funk" found in beers brewed with wild yeast, like saisons.
