I've been brewing a lot as always ... but I've really simplified my recipes and reduced the number of recipes on the rotation. I do almost all either IPA or stout. AG BIAB. Fermenter pails and corny kegs. :clink: I just kegged batch #298 and batch #299 is in the fermenter. I can't believe my next ba...

I'm going to the Moose Lodge ... free beer (Bud or Coors Light) and open kitchen food available. Big screens. Whoever from the Lodge is there is there. I may leave to go home at the end of the third quarter. My wife will drop me off and pick me up. I ain't drivin' home on Superbowl Sunday. No way.

If a dog eats hops, it will likely be fatal.
I guess beer is ok, because the hops are at low concentration ... still, if I had a dog that I cared about ... I would not give it beer. No good could come of it.

Awesome.

I don't get stoned any more.

I'll check it out ... but I do agree with what Louie said ... brand loyalty is not necessary here.

Really interesting, wow.

Even though I drink homebrew almost exclusively, and appreciate the fine crafts that are out there, I wll still drink a "light golden lager" like Bud when I'm at the Moose Lodge or on the train ride home. It's beer. Hell, even sometimes when I'm at a place like Buffalo Wild Wings ... that ...

My next kegging event will be 1/25 when I keg my latest stout .... 5 gal .... I don't have to look at the recipe ... I don't even use qbrew much any more. I make the stouts plain and simple, and they're delicious. 5 gal ++++++ 7.5 lbs 2row mash - mash 1.0 lb roasted malt - mash 0.75 lb sugar 1oz nug...

In my line of work, any time the skin is broken is a huge hazard, especially on the hands. That being said, I've bumped my head so often, I bet if I shaved my head, it would reveal a lumpy, misshapen pate full of dents and scars. One advantage of having a vigorous (albeit rapidly graying) head of h...

Me, too!

I'm getting the same message in Windows Explorer.

Horrible.

Great stuff.
