    ABOUT ME

  • Hello,

    My name is Bryan and I'm a Navy Helicopter pilot who has been into homebrewing for about a year now. I was introduced to it by a friend who is also a navy helo pilot, and I just love brewing. I have done about 15 extract brews, but I'm about to embark upon my first all grain attempt. I have just ordered my mash tun and Im very excited!

    Would love to chat with others brewers in the area or elsewhere. My e-mail is: bryanpeeples@yahoo.com.

    because its what I have on hand. Fermented in the low 60s using a swamp cooler. I'm having my
    second one now an...

    I knew a girl with a rotweiler named Guinness and a cat named Amstell. Maybe I will get my kids
    a rabbit just so I can name it Hoppy.

    I brewed this yesterday. It's fermenting like crazy right now. Can't wait to taste it. Does
    anyone have a picture of what the final product looks like? If not I will post one in a few
    weeks when mine'...

  • Posted in thread: Best Brewery Tour you've done on 03-15-2013 at 02:45 AM
    +1 on Abita near New Orleans, great tour.4X in Brisbane, Australia was awesome. It starts out
    in a little movie theater where they show you clips of their TV commercials over the years.
    Being an Ameri...

  • Posted in thread: My First Catastrophe - Should I dump it? on 03-12-2013 at 01:42 AM
    I think you will be just fine. If worst comes to worst and you find out later that you do have
    an infection, you can dump it then but might as well wait and see. I bet you get a decent beer
    out of it.

    Congrats on the first all grain! Don't stress the boil-over, happens to me about half the time.

  • Posted in thread: Clearer beer? on 02-01-2013 at 05:01 PM
    I use whirlfloc during the boil and knox gelatin added to the carboy about 4 days before
    bottling. Works great, the beer comes out super clear. There's a thread somewhere on this site
    that tells how t...

    From my brother, after I ordered a Sam Adams Boston Lager: "oh yeah, i forgot you like those
    dark beers, thats gross! I'm just not very exotic. Bud Light is the only beer I drink. I would
