Brickos Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Have had that problem with 12oz before, seems to fix itself if I rotate the pic to the side and back again in the folder, image then saves itself in the upright and can be posted as such. Shit was annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hua Guofang Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 The Jasper ale was supposed to be a red but is closer to a piss weak amber. The Celtic red was all malt and low hops so I combined them for a frankenbeer. Wasn't great but better than them on their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hua Guofang Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Do not buy this shit. Was $10 a six pack and still a rip off. It's a major chain cashing in on the craft beer scene, the side even has some cheesy bullshit like "legend has it that joe cheesedick swam ashore the west coast of Australia with nothing but a glass of amber ale in his hand and when he looked over the amber sands he said I'm the worlds most lucky man". It even has a cliche name- Steamrail. On the back it says Brewed under license for Luquorland Australia. Say no more.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hua Guofang Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 No shortage of flavor there, mate. Stronger on the malt than the hops (for my tastes at least) and a thick, syrupy consistency. I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hua Guofang Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Wow, drinking this beer is like being punched in the tongue. Don't think I could drink more than one at a time because it really is, as they say on the bottle, hopped out and devastating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hua Guofang Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Reds should always be malt driven do these people just completely disregard style guidelines? An Irish red, sure. Not a red IPA, red eye ale or others (according to my tastes at least!). I like citra/galaxy/other fruity style hops in my red IPAs with a good balance between maltiness and citrusy bitterness.

theprotester Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Well red ipa isn't even a real style so I guess that one doesn't register to me. No idea what red eye ale is either.

Boodah Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I guess. the microbrews are all swinging from the heels these days. Trust. I've worked in the industry for the duration of the last ten years. I saw the heights and the demonstrably horrible rise in "what else can we do" to make things "heavy." Married to beer and food industries for this long, the next thing to come along will be better in that the Midwest will be hiding its secrets still. I'm as upset as a west coaster can be. IPAs are still dominant here, but I've been drinking swill like Lagunitas and PBR. Hops are supposed to just be stayers of freshness. All the sudden, they got to be glorified. I had 5 Angry orchards before dinner. Now, I'm drinking alovera and apple juice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you do booze these days, if you do and can get your hands on a Modus Operandi red, that will give you an idea of a red IPA, mountain goat Fancy Pants is similar. Probably not a traditional style beer but tradition can often be a constraint on progress and evolution (or the inevitability of bad habits, sometimes).

In all three cases their uses evolved to create new and better uses, it's progress, embrace it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boodah Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I didn't know that about the wicker chairs and boxes. Still have two Angry Orchards stashed away.

theprotester Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Same amount of time in the craft beer industry mate. I agree with the nausea of making everything heavy. And the ridiculous craze of trying to outdo ibu counts. Putting enough hops in to induce 1001 ibu doesn't mean the wort is going to absorb anywhere near that. Anyway. I am all for the innovation side of craft beer it's when they start calling them IPA or some such when it clearly isn't. Not drinking anymore mate but still interested in what's going on. I am an Irish Red Ale fan and Red Ale in general. Was interested in hearing what Stalwood from Nail cooked up, he's a bit of a hometown hero. I'm happy for hops to be the hero. I used citra before it was cool. At the end of the day it's up to what you like to drink, just don't bastardise the tradition that created the platform for your success.

Hua Guofang Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 [ATTACH=full]217302[/ATTACH] Sensational. Fruity hops with strong bitterness in the end. Similar to a cankshaft for any that know them. These guys are killing it and have just been picked up by BWS (major retail chain). Good luck to them.

Hua Guofang Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 [ATTACH=full]217305[/ATTACH] A much heavier hit in flavoring and with a booze of 9% you know you're drinking it. Pretty good, would have again but not for downing fast like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
