I'll drink it. And many people share their homebrews with friends, family, and random TD members. I appreciate your chuckle on the matter, but homebrew can be every bit as good, if not better, than commercial beer.


i still havent gotten you any. ill try to find yall one tailgate and bring some.

but yes people dont understand for a really goood home brewer it is VERY easy to make better beer than commercial. that doesnt mean they can make better beer on that scale. Im sure all the people that have been talking neipas for the past 3-4 years in our brewing thread have made plenty better than ghost. That also doesnt me I or we hatre on ghost. it is one of the beers that got me wanting to brew this style. also i get downvoted for this but ghost today is way different that OG ghost beers.

Pre-new yeast, their beer was hitting it's stride on release date.
i agree but like i said when these high dry hopped beers i to have a problem with an astringency taste. so i let it sit in a keg for a week before i taste.

I'd say a person's homebrew tastes better to them,
This is also true cause i feel these beers are tuned to my taste buds. that can very from person to person.

I've made some pretty good NEIPAs, but one thing I just can't seem to replicate is the nose on Ghost. No matter how many hops I squeeze into the fermentor, the aroma doesn't jump out of the glass like it does with Ghost. The flavor is there. Kegging one tonight that smelled and tasted great when taking a sample last night. I have a feeling that Parish (and other breweries) are slowly recirculating their beer through a hop back or torpedo or something similar so that that the beer gets the maximum amount of hop oils possible. I simply don't have that ability.

This is exactly what i've been doing with my NEIPA's. Been messing around with the water profile, grist, and yeast to find what i like. The answer, was Whole Foods Post Oak Hop Explorer 12. Man i loved that beer.

I don't see how anyone could disagree with that point. I could see an argument on whether it is better or worse but there is no doubt it is way different.
