    Well.......I actually gave it a C+ in my notes. I am really not into smokey flavor in my beer and this had its fair share.

    It's pretty good. It's not the best stout, but you do get the nutella flavor.

    One of the Booming Rollers has already met its demise. Thanks @uhplifted

    It is Gordon Strong's recipe from BYO.
    https://byo.com/stories/issue/item/3497-german-gose-style-profile

    So he is using a probiotic capsule for the bacteria, I couldnt find that one, and found something similar.
    Note, you are supposed to have it warm for a while so the bacteria can multiply. Due to brew day pressure, I didnt
    get a sufficient sour.

    So after tasting, I had to doctor it. So I added 2 tbs lactic acid.
    Then I added a full Tropicana 100% Ruby Red Grapefruit juice container.
    This wasnt to the secondary, this was to the keg.
    It was insanely bright, but the grapefruit has mellowed a bit in the last month.
    I would swear the salt and coriander wasnt as detectable, but it is now.

    Awesome. Love it!
    My neighborhood brewer did an IPA with 50# of red grapefruit added to the mash. It came out great!

    Let me know what you think of that Hostile Intent. I haven't had it yet. Thinking about opening it after I install my bedrack today though

    New one for me and Wow. Lifting the glass I got a nose full of fragrance and the taste that follows does not disappoint. That lingering flavor of Thanksgiving pumpkin pie just sneaks up on you.
