man, I really fell asleep on my brew schedule. I had no idea that my keg of pliny clone was so low until it kicked last night. It was still drinking pretty good for 3 month old DIPA. The nose had faded a bit but it still tasted really good to me.
So, now I have a package from AHS coming today with the stuff to make the sour base, and need to brew something else to put in the keg, probably the Fortunate Islands clone. Would have been nice to save the second shipping cost and ordered both together.

What is a reasonable price for a 5 gallon keg?

kegged my petite sour this morning.. Kettle soured a berliner base, fermented with WLP644 - Brett Trois, and aged on blackberries.
This was my first time using WLP644 and it turned out great. The beer picked up a TON of flavor and color from the blackberries and the brett was a breast and continued fermenting strong until it drove the pH to around 3.1.
Only unfortunate thing was that WLP644 vials only have 3 billion active cells. To build up from 3 billon cells to Chad Yakobson's recommend pitching rate (between ale and lager) took three steps. If I did this again I'd spend the money to ship in some Omega Labs Brett Trois blend that starts with 150 billion cells and save myself some time.
