Congratulations and a very happy anniversary!!!

Thanks as always for the support and encouragement from the Borg!!! News today, we received an offer on our house this morning and we are countering, waiting, countering .... I'm sure everyone knows this process. Fingers, toes, paws & tails (dog owners) all crossed right now. We will be in North...

Very nice. Best of luck on the move. Who's gonna carry those 50 lb sacks of grain up the steep climb? (remember I live in flat country!) Thank you! Actually, it will be very easy as trucks have already been delivering other items to the house and we have been storing them in the garage, so it's not...

It's been a while since my last update on our progress, due more to us preparing to list our house here in Florida to sale and get everything wrapped up in North Carolina with our new house there. So our house has been on the market for three weeks now and we have had some good showings so far. No o...

Thanks, D Rabbit ... I'm sure we will :D :D I thought it was B.S. as well until it was on a actual Disney site and they would be at the food and wine festival. I may have to try this "drinkable, good starter beer" and sing some Mmm Hop into the evening. On second thought .... Mmm Nope, I'm...

So my wife and I are eight days out from our holiday to Disney World and I see this posted today about the Food & Wine Festival that is going on at EPCOT this year. Hanson, the brothers that had some teen band back in the 90's apparently are now brewing beer and it will be at the festival. A jok...

YAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Man, did the Vikings kick butt!! I sure hope this is a good indication of the rest of the season. Course, my Colts let me down, surprise-surprise. I do love that Manning handed their butt to them. Love seeing Cordarrelle Patterson doing well in Minnesota. I graduated from Tenn...

Looks like you had a great day ... Thanks for sharing the pics ... Brewing on that level is a lot of fun.

The chain restaurants here in Pensacola like Applebee's, Chili's and Ale Houses all have local and regional craft beers on tap and in bottles when available. They all have had them for a few years now it seems. Regional beers here for us include Pensacola Bay Brewery, Lazy Magnolia and Fairhope Brew...

This seriously made me laugh out loud and scare one of our dogs. Doesn't filigree have something to do with jewelry?

If you are still in PCB, you may want to give Fish Ales a go ... www.fishales.com is their website. Fishale Taphouse and Grill is located on Front Beach Road, just over the Hathaway bridge on the beach side. I hope you get to try it out and let us know how it is.

Rice was just an idea, I see what you are saying and I happen to agree. Just wanted to kick it around. May just leave it out all together.

May leave out the 30 minutes addition and go with those additions. ... Not certain there though.

Thanks for some feedback

Ok, Borg .... Tweaking around a new IPA recipe and wanted to throw this out there for comments, etc. Thinking about adding some flaked rice to perhaps add to the dry side of the IPA we are looking to go with. Thought adding the rice as it doesn't add any flavouring or body to the brew. Also, going t...

Meanwhile in Mexico

Dad driving with helmet ... Piece of plywood between him and child on back with no helmet, holding the plywood to dad's back.



I took this a few years ago in Progresso, Mexico.

That's awesome! Glad to see someone knew who they were and has actually been to their brewery. Yeah, they have been more than helpful in a lot of our research leading up to this. Very cool guys and I wish them nothing but continued success. Right. In speaking with them they do brew double batches o ...
