After a week and a bit in primary, followed by a week and a bit in bottles, it's finally ready to enjoy. Color is good, aroma is malty, head was solid, and taste is mellow. I'd give this a solid 7/10. Would make again.
There is truly NO LIMIT TO THE LARP!!! These fuckers actually think Twotter is real life! Holy fuck they're delusionally out of touch.
Complacency kills, Chuck... we'll see how long you last.
Schumer and Jeffries? Absolutely. Not only do their personal politics not line up with the party's new popular mandate, they just fucking suck at their job. They want nothing more than to sit back, do nothing, and funnel endless money to Israel while letting things rot. Pelosi, I'm less convinced, since she at least seems savvy enough to seize on a movement, even if she doesn't really agree with it. Wouldn't mind seeing her get scrapped for fresh blood though.
This is the best setting Progressives have had to make real change in this country in DECADES. Let's not blow it. Call your reps and tell them to make Schumer and Jeffries pound sand.
Stop huffing 10 year old copium and engage with reality. Progressive politics are on the ascendancy, and people are ABSOLUTELY FUCKING SICK of Radical Centrism™️. Schumer and Jeffries need to go, for sure, but this is the best time to launch a Progressive in years.

Fuck man this one's actually got me tearing up here. Masterpiece shit. Magnum Opus. 100/10.
Dread it, run from it, Blexas arrives all the same.
Never thought I'd see the fucking day. Holy fucking shit.
There's a lot going on here...
Also no green text. OP is a fucking loser, response is a fucking loser.
You know what, let's try turning Altman into RAM. Surely that would be a better use of his Carbon and Silicon than his body, right? Surely he won't mind becoming part of a datacenter, right?
RIGHT???
Translation: We've run out of shit to steal, and there's too much slop out there for us to continue anyway. Thanks, suckers!
The yeast seems to have striated very distinctly. Probably didn't mix it enough before putting it away. Oh well, the volume is low enough that convection will sort it out.
See you in 2/3 weeks! ABV should come out to about 3.5%.
Very fluffy, rose quite well. Not as acidic as most sourdough I've made, I wonder if that will change over time as the culture develops and ages. Overall quite tasty, goes well with butter, cheese, and jam.
Here's the dough at peak rise.

Made a pizza with it. I'd say the crust looks good lol. Will edit with taste when it's cool.
Flavor update: it's definitely got a nutty, estery flavor to it. Different from my regular starter. I'll have to use it more to see how it matures over time. Great crust development too.

After roughly 3 weeks in the carboy, I've bottled it. It came out to around 3.5-4% abv, and tastes really good. Should be even better after carbonation and chilling. I've also used some of the leftover yeast to start a sourdough starter! It smells really fruity, though that may be the jar, as it smelled like cinnamon before (despite being a pickle jar...). Can't wait to use it in bread.
The starter really took off lmao. Guess the yeast is active.
Smelled really good while mashing. Can't wait for it to finish!
After crashing out the carbonation as best I could, SG came out to about 1.0112, which is within expected FG range.
Taking the chance to try it before bottling, I gotta say... not as spicy as I was expecting, but it's definitely got substantial kick to it. This is a sipping beer, lest you choke on the heat. As for the flavor profile... hard to say. Very mellow flavor notes, with low sweetness and bitterness. Definitely needs to age in a bottle before I start making claims to fame. But overall, this isn't too bad! I don't hate it, but it definitely needs work.
