I’ll take it... will you put it on a pallet and I’ll arrange shipping?

If you can believe it I made this batch of pecan porter 9 years ago. I’ve been so busy making beers professionally that I never felt the need to try it until now. I can’t describe how great it aged. The deep oak and almost bourbon quality it developed is amazing. I actually hate to drink it but...

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated this thread. The good news is that we are still rocking the homebrews 6 years now and the bad news is we still haven't upgraded to the stainless fermenters as we can't seem to find a place to put them. I did get 2 more 115 gallon plastic for a total of...

Limulus It's really crazy but with 12 115 gal fermenters I can just barely meet the demand. In the slower months it works just right but in the summer I'm brewing about 5-6 days per week. I've got a guy that washes and fills kegs for me. I'm turning ales out in about 12 days and lagers out in...

We just celebrated our 3rd anniversary by offering a Hefeweizen ! I used a Bavarian yeast to get that banana taste. People are loving it ! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Yesterday at 10 am registration for brewers began for the GABF. So at 9:58 I'm ready and when registration opens I get server unavailable for 2 hours then I get through and fill out the form quickly but it was already full ! We got put on the waiting list. I'm very disappointed :( with the...

Hi all fellow brewmasters ! Sorry I haven't posted in a really long time. We just celebrated our 2nd anniversary ! Woo hoo !!! So to do something crazy I made a batch of smoked jalapeno and bacon beer. We are calling it " Smokey and the Bacon ". I'm still brewing 100 gal batches with 12 beers...

Thanks for stopping by yo ! Limulus , I was also expecting at least a quick blurb about the brewery but I guess the show was about food not beer :-( New beer on tap is called Jack Rabbit Red. Layers of Carmel malt with huge hop flavor without bitterness dry hopped with Simcoe. Also IIPA called...

425 bbls per year was a little high. We produced just under 400 in the first year. The plastic conical fermenters have held up just fine. For those that think it can't be done with plastic, I clean them with PBW and a boat washing mitt and they are still like new . I have seen some much better...

Wow this has been a great summer ! My biggest production month I kegged up 1980 gal. We are currently offering 10 beers and with the soon to be released Oktoberfest makes 11. We are trying to design the new 10 barrel brewery and get it under construction ASAP . A brewer from Belgium stopped...

Tomorrow is our brewery's 1 year anniversary ! This has been the greatest year of my life ! Thanks to all the folks that post such great information on the forum. Without it I would never have had this opportunity !

Howdy friends I wanted to update you on the Big Texan Brewery progress. It's been a one man operation until today. I got 2 young men to wash and fill kegs then clean the fermenters etc. Today Hooray !!! This is almost 1year since the day we got our brew pub license. I've brewed about 160 times...

We just got a nirto set up with blender and after reading jershes posts my question is how long to force carb and can I continue force carbing with just co2 or should I run a blended line back to my carbinating area.. I presently bubble through with 30 psi co2 for 24 hours then remove from the...
