I didn't realize we're filming today I brought
my my fuzz thing in
Man you got feathers on you? Do I have feathers?
It's been a good log year
It has
but time to retire the log we're gonna move
beyond the log in 2020
A lot of people are like don't be done with the log this is it
finally wrapped up our third video
We're done
If you're not up to speed Dailey Crafton from
Levenaut and 18th ward brewing stumbled
across a log that he began brewing with
so he kindly sent us the log to do some
brewing and playing around with if you
haven't checked out any of those videos
we have a full playlist on the log beer
extravaganza it's been months since we
brewed them so we're gonna see which one
had aged the best or if any of them aged
well at all or if any of them are even
still good but first let's take a look
back at the good times we had with the
log in 2019
all right so log beers
number one this
is the this is the OG gangster
log beer the one we brewed at the beginning
of this year January 30th yeah cheers
Cheers
This one definitely has a um like a
kind of rubbery smell a little bit I'm
getting white grape a little bit
Emmet: Kind of like Welch's White
Kyle: No yeah I get it
Yeah it's kind of it has like a white wine
even smell yeah it really does
But it does have some of those kind of like rubbery phenol kind of
I'm imagining uh this is
what you drink you know after you left
the factory like in Akron in the 20s
Emmet: if you're workin' at Goodyear
Kyle: Yeah exactly yeah
If you're if you're makin' some dank ass homebrew
Walkin' out of the rubber plant goin'
home to drink about a gallon of this
I like this
It'd be a decent day yeah
I don't remember the initial tasting it's been so long
A lot of fruit flavors you're right
Tons of fruit so fruity
yeah pineapple pear orange mhm
Definetely still has a citrusy kind of vibe to it yeah
limes maybe that's kind of over been
overpowered by the grape sulfur
rubbery kind of taste yeah it's not it's
not unpleasant by any means
oh very different I mean it's old it's been
what 10 months yeah I like it I'm not
gonna lie I liked it better
When it was fresh out of the keg
it's just more like I don't know man
ooh shit it was more approachable if you
will there you go yeah no I
totally *burp*
and this was brewed March 6th so this is old too
this is old as well it's got some age
on it this one I've noticed has like no
head retention it's definitely
carbonated yeah zero the head the head like
just dissipated immediately
Cheers
I like the smell of that
It smells more sour than the other one
Yeah
has like some like really rich cherry
kind of really rich cherry kind of kind of smells like it's
been aged on wood yeah no I can see that
Hmm
I think the lack of hops makes it a
little weird yeah almost tastes like a
slightly off cherry soda
*laughs*
Or something like that
Yeah
like artificially flavored almost
Emmet: That could be the extract part
Kyle: Yeah no it does man
It really does
This is probably just not balanced
Like there's no bitterness to offset
Mhm
Yeah it's just one note and it's kind of a weird note
Right
cuz I think in the initial tasting on
that we said it's not offensive it's not
great it's nowhere near as good as
obviously that the first log beer I
would say it's not palatable at this
point
Not a fan?
No
Yep dumpin' that one back
That's what I was gonna do
Maybe if it had some hops and a little bit of bitterness it might have saved it
Mhm
So we can dump that keg which is good
Yep
I brewed it for an event never brought
the beer and it's been sitting in a keg
for seven months so
yeah sweet sweet plan you know pretty much on
top of this video love it when a plan
comes together
a seven-month video
it definitely has
a really low-key kind of sulfury vibe
very very slight kind of citrusy smell yeah
Hmm dude it tastes really like thin and light
There's not really
enough body they're like the initial
mouthfeel feels rich but then it fades
really quickly get the log vibe yeah for
sure
I'm gettin' a I'm gettin' the same
same like white grape kind of stuff we
got off the first I mean this is old too
at this point
Yeah it's old
this is using harvested
yeast from the original yeast
so basically we made a starter brought it
up I'd say the yeast I mean that
character comes through yeah so I would
say you know the yeast that we have
saved you know if we ever want to brew
one of these again we we can easily
repopulate that and you know we're good to go I don't even
know how to describe definitely
Emmet: More citrusy than this
Kyle: Yeah I don't really know how yeah
honestly I don't really like this one
Emmet: So you lose
Kyle: It kind of has like an unpleasant bitterness
It does I agree with that
that's the thing that I'm not
really
Kyle: liking about it
Emmet: At the very end
yeah I just kind of assumed they would
age well and I'm gonna have to say
Drink em' young
In my book number one is number
one and this this is second and then
that's going down the drain but
Well I would say
Brew it!
Yeah
Brew it
Find a log and brew it
Yeah find a log and brew some brew some shit
Yeah
Cool man cheers
Thanks for watchin' see ya
