Quit kidding us Swen....you visit there every day. Remember that beer I brought to Nashville last year called White Rajah???? That's from the Brew Kettle. They put out some outstanding stuff too.

Brew Kettle 4-c's is a favorite of mine. Lots of flavor in a 5% ABV package. Have not had the beer mentioned in that article though. They are one of the only BOP places around here that hasn't gone kaput if your are into that. Been around and doing BOP for 20 years now, where the others popped up and then went under. I did that once there a long time ago. I don't go there and do that now because not cheap and driving there for me is a drag.

I think Brew Kettle charges around 150-170 for 10 gallon batch and you still need to pay for bottles if you don't have any.

Ok, well beyond not cheap now LOL.

There was a long time ago other somewhat reasonably priced BOPs, but they are long gone.

I looked at them when I started brewing for S&G's it is a little more than 10 gal. I think they will guarantee 72 bombers give or take a couple. There is also one in Mentor called Little Mountain Brewery, restaurant, bar, and BOP a little more reasonable but still over the top in price, but I guess ok if you think about the equipment we use that their target clientele doesn't have. I have a feeling they use more extract for this and brewing for their own use and just have specialty grains for recipes.
