Brewbirds Are (kind of) back

Post by Brewbirds »

HELLO FROM ROANOKE MY FRIENDS

We made it here and so did all our goods ( well sort of).

We just got the internet hooked up today and I just wanted to say hi.

It took seconds to see that no one had our back where RickBeer's was concerned but that's okay as long as you know we will never stop our banter.

I can't wait to get a brew going BUT I can't find my scales and refractomoter. DOH DOH DOH



Okay off to all of the posts we missed while we were down; this should take a while.

Glad to see you made it and have improved quality of life in Virginia by your (gag) cheery disposition. :laugh

Glad to see you're getting settled in. Time to build that pipeline up again now. Did the bottles make it intact?

welcome back y'all
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Awesome! Glad to see you two back on the Borg. Roanoke, huh. You need to check out Sunken City Brewery. http://sunkencitybeer.com A long time friend of mine is the brewmaster for them. They are the fast growing brewery in Virginia and they have a canning line. You'll have to check it out! And tell Jeremy that Dave A said what up!
