I had the Kilt Lifter, Extra Stout, Brother Thelonius and Rip Tide at the beer festival this weekend. Haven't tried the Rogue's but found them so decided to buy them.

Re: beer hauls
This is a couple weeks old, but didn't get a chance to post it, and its actually two hauls that happened a couple days apart:
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2712/...4cbd12294a.jpg The one I'm most excited about is the Fantome, picking up all the non-New Glarus stuff at Total Wine we are at the checkout and I hear my wife behind say, "Fantome?" My ears perked up and I said, "What did you say?":D They only had a couple bottles and I asked the person at checkout why they weren't on the shelf? She said that when they only have a few bottles left of something they are not getting more of they put them up at checkout. So for all you Total wine beer buyers, be sure to look around the checkout area :tu Fantome is a very small Belgian brewery that you almost never see here in the states (unless you're lucky). They don't really brew to any certain style, most are considered Saisons/Farmhouse Ales, but their beers are all very very unique. The best part though, as a homebrewer, is the yeast at the bottom of the bottle. It will be harvested to brew my own saison. :banger |
Re: beer hauls
LH, how do you go about harvesting and propgating the yeast from the Fantome saison? Does one bottle yield enough yeast to work with?

You have to baby the starter, start small (pint or less) and clean (sanitized well, as always) and with low gravity starter wort (say below 1.030) and then build it up (add more starter wort when you see yeast activty for a while), and then build it up again until you get a useasble amount (for your 5gallon batch or whatever). I'd say it has worked nine times out of ten with various bottle conditioned beers, the failures may have been my fault or maybe there just wasn't any viable yeast in the bottle. But most of the time it works, just make sure it is a bottle conditioned beer and that the brewery doesn't pasteurize or filter and bottle with a different yeast strain than you want for your beer. :tu Hope this covers it, hope I was specific enough, but I'm not very scientific with this stuff.....relatively speaking, it is brewing after all. :D Let me know if you have any other questions. :tu |
