    Quietly, and with simple dignity

    Herself & I are going to tie the knot. Her son & my daughter will be witnesses. We're both well past 55, but dammit, it feels like we're puppies. Wish us luck. And yes. There will be beer!

    The Good Woman...

    .. is a good woman. Surprised me today. She came home from work & walked in the house & said "Can you please help me? I went shopping & there's some stuff in the back of my car I'd like your help with" Yadda yadda yadda. So, like a good male counterpart, I go off to empty out the back of...

    We, mostly, all know this.

    But it's good to see something factually correct & unhyped from the popular press when it comes to beer. I approve and/or endorse his product and/or service. Beer Myths that wont go away

    Brewers are the bestest peoples!

    Stout dilemma

    I've done quite a bit of RDWHAHB before I ask this, but I'm a tad concerned & would like advice from wiser/more experienced heads here. I've got a milk stout that doesn't want to behave. I'll put the recipe at the end, but, in short, the FG isn't coming down anywhere *near* what I expect...

    Sweet, merciful jeebus-- HOPS!!

    So I come home from work today to find a big package on the front porch. I'm a bit puzzled as I know that neither I or SWMBO have any deliveries scheduled. Take it inside & open it up. Well I will be dipped in all of it. My brother, a tea-teetotaller BTW, sent me an early Christmas present...

    Pliny the Elder

    A friend of mine flew in from San Deigo earlier this week & brought me 2 bottles. I cracked open one last night. Holy sweet, merciful Zeus! I smells of essence of virgin Unicorn & tastes like the joyful tears of angels! Stuff is even better than bacon.

    First recipe. Critique please.

    Being the brewing noob I am, I've been doing kits (NB,AHS, etc) and recipes from my LHBS & this august collection of madmen & women, for the past 10 or so batches. Basically so I can concentrate on my technique & consistancy. Yes, eventually I'm going to go AG, but not yet. Now I've been...
