***What Are You Smoking, July 2020?***

[cshubhra]

Yes, it was good!

It’s kind of nice to get that hint of Latakia in the smoke! I’ve done that before.

Cream ale sounds delicious. How did it come out?

Fantastic. It's all-grain, hopped with Willamette, a good dose of flaked maize and carapils malt so it has a rocky creamy head that's like whipped cream all the way to the bottom of the glass. I dialed in the water chemistry to match the water of Pilsen, and used Michigan 6-row pale malt. Lagered it for 4 weeks at 34F, so it's crystal clear, dry and crisp.

I'll have to hold a wake for it when it runs out, that's how much I love it.

I know I’ve heard of it but can’t remember what it is. Will have to check it out.

Pimm's No. 1 is the main ingredient. You can mix with club soda, ginger ale, or 7-Up- I prefer the citrusy 7-up. You can add a splash of sweet vermouth but I like a dose of Aperol for the bitter orange counterpart to the sweetness. Garnish with slices of lemon and orange, and a thin slice of raw cucumber.

Some are tempted to ditch the cucumber, but the herbal freshness brings all the flavors together.

Damn. I need one now.
