The pilsner is in bottles now. Dan and I bottled it in record time tonite, 45 minutes. It's amber in color, very clean looking, it has a very smooth nutty taste, I thought the hops were going to be a bit hardcore, but the finishing hops rounded it out nicely. High alcohol content, I could tell my the shot that I tasted tonight. Very good. I'm pleased.
I am enjoying a bottle of our ginger amber ale. its very good as well. smooth also in the mouth, the scent is of ginger obviously and malt, the carbonation is not quite up to full speed yet, I'll say another 2 weeks an it will be perfect. It is at this time very palatable. It tends to be a bit bitter, for those of us who like hops, and I think on the next batch of this one a bit less ginger will make it perfect. It's nearly perfect as it is now. Dan and I want to make this a flagship ale in our pending brewpub, so I imagine there will be some tweaking of this one in the near future.
The malt liquor style ale is going strong too. We eyeballed it on Sunday night and it looks good. Really clear at the top, but near the bottom of the bottles its still very cloudy. We'll likely give this one a try next monday and see how its going.
Thats all for now.
