    Seems Official - Northern Brewer/Midwest/AB Inbev/Budweiser/SAP/Miller

    Can we stop perpetuating the crap that if there's something someone doesn't like about the U.S. that they should get out? It's a ridiculous non-argument in any situation it's brought up in. Furthermore, someone can choose not to do business with companies they don't want to. The argument that...

    Homebrewing for fun ( and money )

    This. The first rule about illegal activity is don't post about it on a public forum.

    Stone to layoff employees

    I don't find Stone overpriced, but it might be a regional thing. I buy Stone stuff directly from their company store in Pasadena.

    Stone to layoff employees

    Sounds like they overextended themselves with capital expenditures. New breweries in VA and Berlin, a hotel in Escondido, and expanded distribution. Seems like too many big expenditures at the same time.

    Threaded Whirlpool tube for that thermometer port on your Boil Kettle

    Holy crap, I've been looking for exactly this for a long time. When my kettle was made they welded in a half port instead of a full one and I didn't want to return it and wait for a replacement. Ordered.

    Beer for a Derby party

    Kentucky Common is a historical pre-Prohibition style that you'd be hard pressed to find a commercial example of today. Revvy has a recipe in the database that's been very well received.

    10% ABV on my beer brew?!?!

    Not to mention, going 1.090 to 1.010 would be extremely difficult to do without some serious yeast management and probably step feeding.

    What should I do with this OLD BEER?

    Life is too short to drink bad beer. A wheat beer is not going to age well. Give it a try, but be prepared to dump it and just brew something else.

    Is it even a possibility?

    I've brewed Centennial Blonde more than any other recipe and it have been well received by craft fans and macro lager fans alike.

    New bar

    Looks fantastic. I would darken up the walls and ceiling to match your dark accents. It takes away from the "coziness."

    How much is two much for one 12 oz beer?

    I've paid $13-15 for 375mL bottles of barrel aged sours and stouts. I would never pay that much for an IPA. There are some excellent sours in that price range from Firestone Walker, Russian River, and Lost Abbey.

    AB acquires Four Peaks, looks to New Belgium next

    Can the mods just close this down? Both sides are just repeating the same things over and over and it's turning into name calling.

    WSJ article on AB InBev distribution incentives

    The problem with the distribution incentive plan is it's going to pack shelves full of craft brands owned by ABI at the expense of smaller, independent breweries.

    Will this speed up carbonation?

    The temp will definitely help, but I don't know if you'll get co2 into solution in that time frame. You may end up with bottles that hiss when you open them and still have flat beer.

    Dry Hopping advice - Citra , Cascade or Amarillo?

    Go with your original plan. Citra and Amarillo pair extremely well. It's my favorite hop combination.
