Nothing like enjoying the fruits of your labor while relaxing on your patio with a purring cat. Homebrewed cider in the glass and Booboo the house panther on my lap. I must admit though... She doesn't make it easy to drink without spilling. 😂 She also seems rather unimpressed by my cider. I on...

Nice assortment! @Thorrak's head is exploding in 3...2...1. 😂

I'm down! Full disclosure... I have already had a few of my trade beers so my commentary on them may be limited but I'm happy to give my thoughts on what I can!

P.S. I have a couple final spots to hit up for my giftee but I should be shipping early next week at the latest!

Santa (err... Cupid?) stopped by this morning with a bunch of goodies! I'm wearing the T-shirt now! Can't wait to dig in to these later today! Thanks Santa Cupid! I have a strong hunch on who my Santa is (mostly because I saw the name on the notification on my UPS app when the shipping label...

To me, part of the fun is not knowing so I always wait until thorrak announces at the end. That doesn't stop people from guessing though. If the person I sent to gets it right, I'll usually come clean. Otherwise, I like to build the suspense lol.

Got mine! Someone's in for a treat! Thanks for running this again @Thorrak!

Okay. You talked me into it lol. Message sent!

Yup. In addition to not having much time to brew, throughout this entire ordeal, I have destroyed the heating element from my brew kettle, a march pump, and my counterflow chiller. In addition, each piece of equipment failed on a separate batch so I have also lost 3 (10+ gallon) batches of beer...

It's homebrew. Just haven't had much opportunity to brew due to a new job. I'm one beer away from being able to fulfill my commitment and have some time off coming up. My thought is if I'm able to at least get the beer into a fermenter by the signup deadline, I'll go ahead and participate in...

Possibly... Due to some life changes, I'm WAAAAAAAAAY behind (a few months) on one of my other trades and wouldn't feel right participating in this until I'm able to make that right so it just depends on if I can make good on that before the deadline on this one. Considering how late I am on...

Fitting name for the trade. I will also be bowing out so I can catch up on this one. Enjoy! @DrGMG just sent you a message with an update.

I have arranged to send mine to @DrGMG. I recently started a new job so time has been limited. I'm hoping I can send something out pretty soon.

Just sent you a PM @DrGMG.

Started a new job last week so I'm celebrating the weekend with one of my guilty pleasures. This sangria is perfect for a warm afternoon like today. Light and refreshing!
