Greetings, Beerlings! Take me to you lager...

Bottle conditioned. Don't recall when I got into kegging, but pretty sure
I wasn't yet in '95, so there'd be no other options at that time. There are a
few more of them, so I'm waiting a couple more years on the rest of them. I
also discovered a 5 gal keg I thought filled with water to be filled
with my Cocoa & Cream Porter. Haven't tried that one, yet. (Really
need to clean up that basement when kegs of beer go missing in the
clutter...)

Hi Pat,

 

  I'm not sure if you'll remember this beer or not, but way back in 2002 (at
the MCAB in Cleveland) I gave a sweet stout to Jeff Renner to hand off to
you when he returned to Ann Arbor.  You emailed me when you tried it and
said that you enjoyed it.

 

  Well, I just found the last few bottles of it several months ago.  I also
chilled one down and gave it a try.  Like your stout, it doesn't really hold
a head any more.  Other than being quite a bit more dry, and getting a
vinous character, it's still very drinkable!
