Week 12, Samuel Adams Imperial White

Filled a tulip glass with one smooth slow pour. Off white head about two fingers that died quite quickly. It had a hazy copper/brown or amber color with some lace on the sides.

Smelll of light soap and biscuit aromas, yeasty.
It had a sweet malty taste that finished with a nice alcohol bite.

The mouthfeel was all about the alcohol, some bitter bite at the end. Sense this is a high gravity it's a once an evening brew, good carbonation and a light feel on the tongue.

BOTM, Pint night

I love the way this came out.

Just some lighting experiments I did, strobe at 45 down above camera and then strobe at white background with a small 8/5 x 11 black sheet of paper just behind the glass so the light peeks around the sides to light the glass on it's sides.

More Star Trails

While sitting out in the front yard, messing with drift alignment of the telescope mount I set the camera up for this photo. It's a merge of over 130ish photos or more than 2 hours of 1 minute shots.

The dew wasn't helping matters and as you can tell from the lower right of the photo the light from next door wasn't either. I'm looking forward to some time at DAV but know I will not be there before the end of the year, after Thanksgiving more than likely.
