  • Posted in thread: Hoppy beers a trend? on 05-16-2013 at 06:12 PM
    I think in my area, BEER in general is making big strides. When I was in college 5+ years ago,
    you didn't see nearly as many non BMC choices. Granted part of this is my own awareness
    increasing. But w...

    Same in Texas. You could have this conversation:Me: I'd like a cokeWaiter: What kind?Me: Dr.
    PepperThat drives me nuts :confused: Then again, if I asked my mom for a Kleenex growing up,
    she'd say "We ...

  • Posted in thread: It's official starting my own brewing business! on 05-13-2013 at 05:49 PM
    I'd love to do this in the future. Though, I think my smoking and brewing will both need to be
    stepped up. I will visit this if I'm ever in Maine

  • Posted in thread: What I did for beer today on 05-13-2013 at 05:43 PM
    Bought a real nice aluminum C02 at an estate sale on Saturday to have for a spare. Yesterday I
    built a wooden shelf in the bottom of my keg fridge. Now instead of 1 keg plus tank, I could
    get 3 kegs p...

  • Posted in thread: What is your fuel source? on 05-06-2013 at 05:43 PM
    I use my propane turkey fryer (outside) for my brews. I keep wondering if NG would be easier,
    but haven't switched yet

    Interesting. So when I asked if it matters if the class is free, I was on to something. :pI
    think doing it through the CC will protect you in case something stupid happens. That's
    probably what I'd do

    Damn it. Opening this thread was a BAD idea. I have enough expensive hobbies :(

    My mother on learning that I homebrew."Your Grandfather used to make his own wine. He would
    collect grapes and berries, make the juice out of them then after a couple weeks decide it was
    done and add ...

  • Posted in thread: Fridge immediately after bottling on 04-18-2013 at 05:51 PM
    That whole 'cold beer back to room temp' is a myth. It's a myth I believed for a long time. I
    used to try to cram a case of beer in my fridge if I bought it in the refrigerated section of
    the store :d...

  • Posted in thread: Who here doesnt hate BMC? on 04-18-2013 at 05:38 PM
    Yes. I'll drink Bud Light tailgating or at baseball games or concerts if there's no other
    alternative. I still like my Amberbock which was my gateway beer. I say it's like enjoying a
    nice rare steak. ...
