    My first batch

    Ha, can't blame ya for that. I have done this kit five times, twice with dry and three times with the Wyeast. The difference in taste is very noticeable, always will order it with the liquid yeast from now on. Don't get me wrong, it is great with the dry yeast, but more so with the Wyeast...

    My first batch

    Looks healthy! That is one of my favorites from Midwest, which yeast did you go with?

    What I did for beer today

    Bottled my "Hello Ladies Ale" early this morning, and my "Ham's Horney Ale" has 30 minutes left in the boil. Ham is my best friend, and the brew has honey and orange in it. So I guess I invented a clever name for my beer too!

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    It is a damn good thing Helm is back, even at 70% speed he is 50% faster than anyone else on our team. The third and fourth lines were non-existent without him and he adds a complexity that is hard to defend. Really looking forward to tonight's game, save the stupid Too Too whistle and that...

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    Hell yes Bingo Bango, or how about Murph's "Blow dart" comment when someone goes down?! I can't wait for Wednesday, these might be the closest playoffs yet. I am really hoping Philly puts it to Kidney and the Penguins. GO WINGS!!

    Films You Watch when Drunk?

    Predator, it sometimes scares me when it makes that "noise" especially with 7.1 surround. Or maybe some new porn that SWMBO records on the DVR. Be jealous fellas!

    Weirdest place you drank a homebrew?

    So here I am sitting in the tub with an empty glass, checking up on the forums, and wondered where the weirdest place others found themselves drinking a homebrew was? I had a autumn amber ale when I first got in, but don't want to track water down the stairs, nor risk a slip and slide moment on...

    Who's Brewing on St Patrick's Day

    Currently 35 minutes left of boiling an Irish Stout does that count? We transfered an Irish Red earlier today, and are celebrating by pre-drinking our holiday!

    Something fun, something star wars.

    I just said that out loud with my Obi Wan voice, I laughed my *ss off, the other 8 people must not be Star Wars fans, or think I'm retarded.

    What are you drinking now?

    Sadly Corona, the SWMBO's father wants a few clear bottles for bottling. I just got him into homebrewing.......yes I am that guy! However, this weekend we will be enjoying a honey porter and a Power Pack Porter from Midwest, while doing some skiing at Crystal Mountain. Should be a fun, non...

    is anyone else fasting for lent?

    With the cost of gas going up past $4/gallon, I think HE would want us to not give up brew. That's what I'm telling the SWMBO, which gets me the eye roll. Giving up fast food, hopefully my waist line will thank me.

    Homebrewing Truths

    You constantly worry if the shelves in the closet need to be reinforced to hold the weight of the hundreds of bottles of homebrew.

    Legal Questions - Large Brew

    Let me start by saying, I have ZERO knowledge about the legality of this. However, you have to think, you brew a large amount of beer that goes out to a large amount of strangers. It only takes one of those strangers to ask questions and then your name gets thrown out there. If you have...

    Ghetto Brewing - Chill before pitching

    "Lagering in the D".......Hahahaha, thank you for breaking up the monotony of a Monday. Now if we could only get the two Fox Sports hotties to pitch that! You're not alone, I actually put my brew kettle of raspberry wheat in the snow after the boil on Saturday night to speed up the cooling.

    Midwest supplies autumn amber ale

    Both batches I brewed took 3 weeks before there was any real carbonation and if you can wait any longer it only gets better. Swirling the bottles did help out on the second batch. This is one of the best beers I have brewed, great flavor and have a third batch that I am brewing Wednesday.

    How much beer do you drink daily?

    Nooooo, Ryan likes the darker beers. You are ruthless! Don't worry, she will be the hottest female on the boards, pics are coming. No offense to the other non 23 year old females on here!
