Name that Beer in honor of D10 and Directv's new HD channels!

[Brewer4]

I am brewing a batch of Porter this afternoon (actually waiting for water to boil right now).

What The Hell Is A Porter? - Beer Advocate

It will take a few weeks to ferment but should be ready in time for the lighting of D10 or at least for the celebration of the NFL Sunday Ticket.

So in honor of D10 and all the new HD channels, would anyone like a shot at naming the beer? Nothing serious just for kicks.

How about Home Draft... or Home Draft Lite... or just shortening up a bit

HD Lite.

 

[Brewer4]

Dont think Draft Lite will work. This is black as night.

Porter is my FAVORITE type of beer!!!! Unfortunately, I'm not creative enough to come up with a name. I'll keep ckecking back to see what other people come up with though!

D10 HD Porter (It's got an edge)

Hi Def Porter

E* Shoot Down Porter

Question Answered! Porter (For those who don't have Questioner on ignore)

 

[Brewer4]

Here it is in the boiling pot.

Nice setup! making me thirsty now

Thats a serious wort cooler. Take well ground water which is still chilly in summer and I can cool down over 5 gallons of 212 degree boiling wort down to cellar temp in less then 30 min. When doing that math, thats some serious heat transfer. I am actually going to dump the hot water into my pool (its only water flowing through the copper coil). Its been a cold August here.

Your color may be darker than 10 on the Lovibond scale, but how 'bout "Lovibon-D10". (I'm sure you get it Brewer--nice wort chiller!)

 

[Brewer4]

Transferring from my staging/transfer tank to carboy. I do this so it can settle a bit and remove more trub before going into fermentation stage. I introduced the yeast and its at cellar temperature. Now its the yeast's job. Go baby go.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

How about the Cool Uplink Lager Ale.

 

[FlyingJ]

Diez Profundo!

 

[Brewer4]

How about the Cool Uplink Lager Ale.

Maybe next one. Lagers and ales are actually 2 different things. I only do ales since they are easier. Lagering is a pain in the rump. It requires colder consistent temperatures and longer fermentation. I cant wait that long.

CUP. Cool Uplink Porter for this one.

I'm thinking of kicking off a batch this weekend too. Sounds fluffy next to a good porter but I'm doing a berry wheat, take advantage of the good blueberries and cherries out for the summer!

Sounds good. Definitely use fresh ones. I like the fruit flavor but folks will use the syrup and that ruins the wheat.
