I will not be able to make it

I will not be able to make it today to help with filling the barrel. My woot is in the stainless steel tank. I'm pretty sure it's on the top shelf. It should be labeled on the lid.

I might swing by, but can't

I might swing by, but can't stay for long. I racked to secondary a few weeks ago - they should be clearly labeled with the tags. You can always send me a text and let me know when a time when you think you'll be getting rolling. 615-504-5298

Jeff,

Jeff,

Yes I have.  I pulled a sample the other day.

In general im not happy with it right now.  Overall the beer is too roasty (probably from the verying degree of roast on the pecans), very astrigant, and also has a strong spicy almost peppery flavor could be from the barrel not sure what the spirt in it before was like.

Ill test it again in a few months but for now im saying let it ride for a while.

Could be not sure.

Could be not sure.

Maybe we can pull a sample off at the barrel workshop get everyones opinions?

 

On another topic to sum up all the other barrels I tried.

Fuzzy - In short its Amazing!, perfect level of sourness, when its fresh peach season will put those in and give it another month or two then fill this barrel again with something similar and let it go by itself.

Imperial oud bruin - Very tasty, balanced with the oak and bourbon, little to no sourness, if it doesnt develop and starts to get to oaky well take it out as is and people can decide what they want independantly.

Lambic - Been great since begining didnt actually try on thursday its only gonna get better.

SCB 2014 - On its way, very sweet and thick, will be great once we integrate spices.

Woot - Above

West-hubberderen - Didnt try too young.

Is this still in the barrel?

Is this still in the barrel?  I would think after almost a year and a half it's time to dump it or drink it.

Mike,

Mike,

We will do our best to personally notify you but just keep a heads up around the begining of Nov.  I want this to hit the 2 years in the barrel mark to empty it.

I don't suppose anyone will

I don't suppose anyone will have this kegged and carbed in time for the member meeting on Sunday, will they? I picked up a bottle of 2016 w00tstout the other day and thought we could do a side-by-side.

Brock, I can throw a portion

Brock, I can throw a portion in a PET with a carb-cap and see what happens. 

We'll have to do it earlier(ish) as I may not be able to stay for the whole member meeting.

Mike,

Mike,

I informed you here to be on the watch around the beginging of November per my post.  I then gave a two week heads up to everyone with an exact date to be there.  Or at the very least have a cleaned carboy ready and waiting.  In short we did not clean a vessal for you and store your beer for you for the past month sorry.
