Figured I should report in. I received mine. According to the tracking the package I sent out was delivered 1/20. It was a little late, but I hope RanchCat actually received it.

I haven't tried the stuff I received yet. I was waiting for an opportunity to try it with another homebrewing friend.

Hooked up normal, you're just venting and pressurizing and venting the headspace and not affecting the liquid contents.

good point I'll give it a shot here soon.

77% reported sent, 58% reported received.

Sweet!!! We just need to get to 99% and then I'll get my shipment of brew.

87 % reported sent, 71% reported received.

After the track record you've had, I made SURE that you weren't gonna get left out in the cold. However, your SS has some attention span issues and I'll probably have to poke him to make sure he hasn't forgotten.... poke, poke if you're reading this, [censored].

South House I loved your sour, waiting for the saison to condition then i'll let you know. I loved the packaging, kept it for next year's SS.

Drinking my last Secret Santa beer this snowy day in the mid-Atlantic. A quick shout out to EagleDude for brewing some tasty beers.

The blonde was super crushable. Very clean fermentation. I liked the single use of Amarillo which gave it a simple orange/tangerine note. Nice choice for a session beer.

I drank the porter thinking it was my 3 year old Quad I figured it out a couple days later. It made a lot more sense as I did not understand what happened to the body in my Quad. I remember it went down easy and my friend gave me compliments on it

I just finished up with the Flanders. The only other Flanders I've had was Monk's . I enjoyed this one much better. The acetic acid was much more subdued and balanced in your beer. It had a more pronounced malt presence and I got subtle notes of chocolate. I would def drink another one. The fact that you have a 60 gallon barrel going is quite impressive. Keep up the good work.




Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback!! I plan to have a keg of the flanders at NHC this year. I bet the porter was a weird tasting Quad ... lol.
