Side Project Brewing

Pulling Nails Blend #2 American Wild Ale

@delectable this is Pulling Nails Blend #15...

“I pulled the notes from Pulling Nails #8 to mimic the fruiting addition exactly - the ratio of raspberries to cherries. Then we blended up what could be the best foundation for these fruits and their refermentation by using the base for the blend #8 as a guide.

Where blend #8 used a portion of spontaneous beer back-blended with a 1-year-old saison, blend #15 uses a base of our lambic-inspired beer (quick turbid mash, funkiest of our cultures, expresses itself somewhere between Coexpressionalism and our old spontaneous beers) blended with Oude Fermier and a Brett-forward saison for some additional Brett spice and classical "funk." The blend was refermented on raspberries and cherries for less than 2 months (just like blend #8 yet unlike any other Side Project beer ever) and then allowed to bottle condition since early May.” - Cory King.

LIC Beer Project

Kingsguard DDH New England Style IPA

This Kingsguard from LIC Beer Project is a DDH New England Style IPA. Rich fruit that gives way to a distinctly bitter finish. Good but not as smooth as some of its peers.

Ha - I'm a little behind on my notes and thought it would make sense to catch up by grouping my booze into similar categories. First up are the beers. Bourbons and various wines to follow!

Best brewery for lambic. Spontanius fermentation with typical native yeasts from the surrounding air. Can t get much better

Cantillon Brewery

Bruocsella 1900 Grand Cru Organic Lambic Ale 2021

Vintage Lambic “which has matured for three years in oakwood barrels and has been selected for its exceptional colour, taste and flavour.”
“Powerful yet elegant, Bruocsella can be considered the missing link between the worlds of wine and beer. Since there is no secondary fermentation in the bottle Bruocsella is a flat, non-sparkling beer.”
“This aristocratic beer is to our national beer patrimony what Mouton-Rotschild, Petrus or Romanée-Conti are to the wines.”

apples, dried apricot, candied ginger, honey, soft cheese rind

addition of artisanal bread, cantaloupe, apricot marmalade ~ ricola

Texas Ale Project

100 Million Angels Singing Double IPA

If you ever see anything from Texas Ale Project (TAP) on store shelves, you shouldn't ask logical questions like 'is this my kind of beer?' or 'do I have enough money in my checking account since I don't get paid until Friday?' or 'is this going to be good in the 180 degree heat index of my car while I make 6 more stops between here and the house?' or 'why do you drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?' (exception: Dallas, where everyone is always parked on driveways, tollways, freeways, parkways, etc). The questions you need to ask are 'how much do they have?', 'can it all fit in my car?', and 'can those other six stops wait until I at least get home and put this all in the beer fridge?'. And then buy a metric ton of it. Or a 4-pack if you have a Smarte car. And then get home and find that the hops are perfectly integrated. Pine, citrus, perfectly balanced. Now there's a third thing to like about Dallas. 100 million angels singing indeed. Well done TAP! — 7 years ago
