It will be a minimum of 6 weeks, before finished.  When its done I'll let you know how I made out. 

Kudos to you and your patience!! I've brewed before but do not believe I've Ever made it past a few weeks without sampling! I'm usually carbing some up within 2 weeks!

If you like hoppy beer you going to love that Nugget Nectar by Troegs.   When they brew that bear its a seasonal beer it typically is gone in 2-3 weeks huge demand for it locally.

I've had Nugget Nectar in the past and it is great. My UNTAPPD shows that it was always in the April-May time frame.  Until you mentioned it I never knew it was a seasonal.

Yea its a shame it a seasonal.....  I typically try to run out and buy about 5 cases worth and store it in the basement and work my way through it through out the year.  Its definitely one of my favorites!

 

[carney]

Picked up another case.

I thought of making a set of window shelves and setting all the fruit liqueurs I have made, it would look like a stained glass window.

If ya get a chance, this is easy to make, it will most difinately make ya howl at the moon, its does not even carry a hint of booze taste or smell and its amazing the new uses I have found.

How is it made?

The better and riper the fruit the better the booze!

Thank you.

You can make nearly all faux liqueurs like all fruits drinks,  Kaluha, Tia Maria, Balieys, etc.....

It tastes like little old church lady drinks, but it sneaks up on you.

I tried my Dead Ringer IPADead Ringer IPA  dead ringer IPA a few nights back, still needs a little more carbonation.  The basement was cold for a couple weeks so it think the yeast wasn't working as hard as it should.  Great tasting beer tho.
