Nice work there.   Looks like you're recovering from the holidays!

With a brand new glass from Brother Ken, here is my Staro Prague Rye Pilsner.  A little sweeter than I expected but very easy to knock down a few.

That is a good looking glass... Pilsner looks money as well!

That is a cool glass, what size is it?

There is a 30cl line but you can fit about 12 oz to the top.

Uh, I figured it was bigger than that.

that's what she said.

 

but seriously - I have the same glass as well.  it's a great size for when you want to have a few different beers but still be 100% functional.

My latest IPL, a lager version of Great Lakes Burning River Ale:

Yeah, that looks nice, B. Great color and clarity.

What's interesting about that pic is (to me at least) the windows looked like there's white-out snow falling outside (which there wasn't; it was a sunny and clear day).

 

But if you look thru the beer in the glass, you can see the trees and snow on the ground of my backyard.

 

Wierd.

My latest batch of light lager (aka Cincinnati pilsner) in a brand-new glass (half-liter):

You're killing it brother.

Yeah, those look great.     If it wasn't so effing cold where ya'll live, I might drop by...

I like the way you think!

So I posted a pic of this beer 11 days ago (or so) and here it is again.

 

 

For those of you looking at that with a phone or tablet, zoom in and you can really see the bubbles rising.  This was brewed on 12/1 so it's just over 2 months from brewday.  The fact that I didn't use finings is very encouraging and it MUST be that I was able to get very clear wort into the fermenter and little-to-no trub.  That much is clear to me.  I have gotten trub into the fermenter and the beer was stubborn to clear even with finings.  Oh, the beer is delicious too.

Pilsner malt with a touch (10%) of Munich malt.  100% Edelweisse hops and 34/70.  This one is about a month old.  Very enjoyable.

Looks great Drez.
