Ever had a brew that even though it is supposed to be lagered for months, tastes so good that you'll have trouble keeping your hands off it until it matures? I'm drinking a Schwarzbier I made 2 weeks or so ago that I racked into a keg for lagering. I took a small sample to taste and it was...

Show me your fancy ( or not ) tap handles. I have mine disassembled, and have them spray painted with chaulkboard paint so I can personalize my keg offerings. I have others I use from time to time also, but no pictures, I think. I'll check.

After brewing so much this spring that I didn't have room to make any more beer, and after drinking much of said beer on my holidays, I finally have room to make more beer. I made a Helles today and am going to make another Helles tomorrow before going back to work Tuesday. To say I missed it...

Looks like the spammers have got hold to us. Mods ?

I've always went with leaf hops for the last 4 years, but after using some pellet hops given me by a fellow member who recently went to school, found the flavours imparted by the pellet to be superior to that of the leaf I had been using. I buy from Hops Direct for the most part, and have...

I got a new conical from these guys http://conical-fermenter.com/products/ which arrived yesterday. Vice piece of work and the shipping was super fast. Can't wait to get a brew in there.

Hey, just wanna say a happy Thanksgiving to all my American brewing pals here on HBT, and that means all you guys. Eat, drink and enjoy the day and don't do anything I wouldn't do! :mug:

Congrats to Mark Heise of the A.L.E.S. club of Sask. for his gold medal for a IPA in the 2009 NHC comp. Way to go Mark. :mug: http://www.beertown.org/events/nhc/recent_winners.html

Has anyone found out how us Canadians can get our brews into the states leaglly other than actually bringing it across the border in the event any of our brews make it past the first round of the AHA comp? Getting the first round entries for us to Sask. isn't hard as a courrier will get it...

I have a bottle of SA Chocolate Bock which I'll be opening tomorrow night. I have to say it better be worth it. I paid $14 for it at my liquor store and it is the most I have ever paid for an imported beer. In any case it will be drank. It's just that I hope I appreciate it.:mug:

Mike Rowe is doing a segment on hop farming on his show " Dirty Jobs " on Nov 25th on Discovery channel. God, how he can call that a dirty job is beyond me. Nov 25, 9:00 pm (60 minutes) Remind Me Dirty Jobs Vellum Maker TV-14 Mike travels to Yakama, Washington to harvest hops, the...

Anyone else insulted by this addition to our profiles? If I want to pay for a membership, then I'm sure I could raise the funds myself. I don't need to beg for anything.

My iceberg pils turned out great. One slight flaw is that it isn't as clear as I would have liked. I should have polish filtered it but didn't want to strip any flavour from it. I can read through a glass of beer, but it don't have that bright clear look. Oh well, I'll have to wait until I can...

Reading and posting to HBT WILL cause you to make better beer than you ever thought possible. All this great beer will cause you to drink more of it so you can brew more. It's a plot to make all of us alcoholics. Before you know it, we'll be entering our brews in contests to see who made the...

I have the means and the ingredients to do an authentic iceberg lager beer. I start by getting some ice from this monster. http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nflder/?action=view&current=DSCI0012-2.jpg http://s15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nflder/?action=view&current=DSCI0011-2.jpg...
