ABOUT ME

About Me: I'm a New Hampshirite and proud of it. I may be young and inexperienced, but I take that as an invitation to be able to have the time to learn. Ever since the beginning of my career in beer, I've been a what I guess people would call a beer snob. However I feel that there are worse things in life to be.
General Interests: Outdoor stuff,camping,backpacking,hiking,longboarding,movies,fun stuff.
Favorite Music: Alternative, classic rock, hip hop. An eclectic yet remarkably non-pretentious taste in music. Although that probably sounds like a pretentious thing to say.
Favorite Movies: V for Vendetta, Old School
Favorite Television Shows: Sons of Anarchy, The Office, 30 Rock, Arrested Development, Breaking Bad, Louie
Home Brewing Biography: Once my roommate and I turned 21, we decided to try to brew some wine that another friend had made. What we ended up making was (in the words of the illustrious proprietor of my LHBS) more like jetfuel than wine, but it got me interested in the brewing process. We bought the ingredients for a simple batch of beer using malt extracts, and I've never looked back. Although now I'm planning on branching into all-grain brewing to step up my game.
Future Brews: another batch of my recipe for coffee stout, an Imperial Stout, something Belgian, and hopefully a batch of Prickly Pear Mead despite the fact that New Hampshire isn't exactly prickly pear country
Bottled: Coffee Stout, Kevins BFF Brown, Saison de Pipaix clone, Spritz & Bite Hefeweizen (recipe from Jasper's in Nashua, NH)
Gender: Male
Status: Single

City: Bedford

State/Province: NH

Never had Founders, but it's on my list of things to try, although locally I only have the

if nothing else, that sounds like a great source of smoking chips. ill have to inform my
friends who have smokers
Posted in thread: Oak chips. To dump with or without bourbon? on 01-18-2013 at 12:17 AM
I do like the sound of that. Gives a lot of control over the oak level as well as the bourbon
level. Do you think that bourbon would even work well at all with the IPA flavors? Or should I
just stick ...
Posted in thread: Oak chips. To dump with or without bourbon? on 01-17-2013 at 03:19 AM
So if anyone is still subscribed to this, I'm thinking about making an imperial IPA with
bourbon and oak cubes. Judging from this, my first thoughts are of taking a jar and using 2 oz
of oak cubes and...

802 (for the Vermont zip code). I find that this and the Crisp are probably two of their better
ones. They're a little less syrupy, and a friend mentioned that he enjoys a Crisp with a shot
of whiskey...

Magner's is pretty good. I had that while in Ireland as well as Bulmer's, and I thought Magners
was better. However I opened up a bottle at Thanksgiving to share with my family and they all
hated it. ...
Posted in thread: How do you feel about Woodchuck as a whole? on 12-03-2012 at 01:26 PM
Maybe it's just me, but I feel like Woodchuck is a long way from what I think a cider should
be. I've tried a few other ciders over the years, and so far Woodchuck is pretty much at the
bottom of my l...

So I know that Woodchuck is a successful company and all, but I want to know how people that
actually know what good beer and such think of it. The sales can't mean everything, I mean Bud
Light is the...
