So my friends didn't tell me, but they booked a private tour with one of the brewers with Goose Island (Brewpub) for my bachelor party. It was amazing, the guy was so cool, instead of the usual 1ish hour tour, we had a long, detailed tour (where we were able to nerd out about water chemistry...

Has anyone else had this? I've got to make some. It's similar to JK Scrumpy's Organic cider, but spicier and sweeter. Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it's just which spices you think they use.

Anyone else seen this? It's a very large image that is a simplified flavor wheel with hop names inside, and the proximity of the names is proportional to how closely related the characters of the varieties present themselves in beer. So, all three CTZ varieties are basically on top of each...

Is this a completely different beer this year (compared to last), or am I confusing it for something with similar packaging? I remember it being much more sour and citrusy, much much more cloudy. What could I be confusing it with?

Below like 35*N? I'm in need of a few Coquina (Donax) clams for my saltwater setup. I'd like them alive. I'd buy them for like $.25 each (plus shipping) or trade for homegrown cascades this fall. Aquarium shops don't seem to sell them, but people seem to have them in their tanks...

Thermostat: $3.75 Banana plug: Free Extension cord (old/busted): free Aquarium heater: $14 Problems: 1. Thermostat starts at 70*f and goes up from there. 2. Analog, heating only. 3. Imprecise resolution (like 5*f swings) I should add that I have two more of these, and have access...

So, I'll be visiting Dusseldorf for a few hours in the morning, is Zum Uerige going to be open? If not, where can one guarantee to be able to snag a good beer? Also, Munich and Athens... same deal. What's your best spot abroad in Dusseldorf/Munich/Athens? Anyone?

The Jewel near me is going to have blood oranges next week. I think I'll buy a bunch and try for a "Blood Orange Black Wheat". A black wheat beer with blood orange is all, I guess. Here's the idea: 5lbs Pale 3-4lbs Wheat 1lb Chocolate 0.5lbs Black Patent 1lb honey "A bunch of blood oranges"...

:o:o:o:o Haven't been looking *too* long, but I can't find any other words for "Masturbatory". I even tried translating it into French and a few other languages, doesn't work. It's for an art project, I'd like the title to mean "Masturbatory", but not actually say it. :o:o:o:o

I'm stuck at the super 8 in Hammond Indiana for the next few days, anything in walking distance that has good beer?

Went out for a night on the town last night and really only tasted about four pints of toothpaste. Bells Octoberpaste, Lagunitas IPAste, Coorlgate.... Anyone have a good way to get rid of the toothpaste taste quickly so I can avoid this next time? Should I just not brush my teeth...

I saw this same phenomenon in Orland Park, IL yesterday multiple times. Even while the flies were mating, one had a Japanese beetle in it's grasp. It's a robber fly, in the genus Promachus. There is another genus in northern IL that I've seen, Machimus, but they're smaller, so much so that...

I haven't contributed much to the HBT forums, and I feel like an info mooch. I should at least buy a premium membership, shouldn't I. I feel like I've just been asking selfish questions and abusing the generosity of the wonderful people on this forum. After this post, I'm upgrading. I've...

I have a used keggle (without a valve, what an idiot) and a 5gal Igloo. I have more questions than are necessary. If I buy the following equipment: Weldless Mash Keg Conversion - Stainless | MoreBeer How far down can I get the tube to pick up wort? I'm sure an extension is possible, but I'd...

It is! I'm pretty sure this is infected apfelwein. And I'm pretty sure I know the source! The last time I had apfelwein in a fermenter the fermentation was vigorous enough to push yeasty bubbles up into the airlock, which I figured wasn't much of an issue, as they retreated...

Observe as I freak out over what seems to be nothing at all!! Why are my leaves curled? Did I water too much? Too little? Is it because I rotated the pot a week ago when they were younger, and now they're trying too hard to get back up against the window? Does it matter at all...
