Mountain Maryland Brewdown Homebrew Competition and the Mountain Maryland Beer and Wine Festival. Aug 27-28 in Cumberland, Maryland Homebrew Competition is AHA/BJCP-Sanctioned. https://sites.google.com/site/queencitybrew/home/mountain-maryland-brew-down...

Anyone in Western Maryland (or adjacent Penn and West Va) out there? There is a homebrew club based in Cumberland! http://sites.google.com/site/queencitybrew/

Do they sell the Choco Bock in anything but the sampler now?

Isn't it also illegal for breweries to offer samples? I was trying to schedule a trip to the Frederick breweries for my club and I remember one saying they stopped tours because they couldn't offer samples or something like that.

I'm hosting a competition and I'm looking for beer/brew-related medals to give as awards. Anyone know of a place that sells something like that? I could go with printed ribbons but I thought medals might be cooler. Thanks, Matt

They might be Magnum too. I seem to remember ordering those. I also noticed that I got more than a few hops with leaves growing out of the flower, which are apparently called "angel hops" or "cock hops," and Magnum us prone to that.

Can anyone tell what variety these might be? I planted 4 types a couple of years ago but only one came up. Of course I trusted my memory rather than writing them down. I believe they might be Cascade or Mt Hood or ? Leaves are really big.

OK, thanks. In the first year I only let one bine grow. Now in the second year, I let two grow. I'll probably experiment with it and see what works best for me.

I have hops growing in my yard. It's the second year. Last year they didn't get all that tall. This year they are already near 9 feet it seems. I have one plant and I put it next to this odd swing frame that is in my yard. It's a large upside down "U" about 8 feet tall made of 4" steel...

OK, i'm doing an all-grain batch today. I don't have a grain mill so I order my stuff online crushed. The mash water was ready, dumped the grain from the bag into the water. After I went to check it the first time, I notice the grain seems to be 'heavier' than it usually is. Then I realize...

I just built mine and used if for the first time today. I used 20 feet of the soft copper tubing (couldn't get a 25-foot length for cheap). I built mine exactly like the one described at the start of this post. It worked great. I love it. It is much faster than my immersion chiller. But...

I once found 5 gal glass carboys at a discount outlet store for really cheap. I bought a couple of them. Wish I would have bought more.

It's not impossible if you are coming out of the military. Usually these schools will let you in because you would be considered a non-standard student. When I got out of the Army I was 24 years old so I was above the age of a standard student (I think the cut off was 23 years old). That...

The benefit, though, of paying those taxes is when you come back to Maryland and want to go to college to use your GI Bill, you get to pay in-state tuition.

As I recall from my military days, you are supposed to be paying taxes to your home of record, even if you don't technically live there. If you look on your earnings and leave statement, you should see that you have MD taxes withheld. If you have no taxes withheld, you should see your...

I used a half-gallon glass jug (like a juice jug) with a screw-on plastic lid once. The lid domed out slightly but it never exploded. I only used it because I ran out of bottles (doh!). I gave the jug to a friend and it seemed to have worked.

The actual bill says this: Increasing the State tax rates for alcoholic beverages in Maryland from $1.50 to $4.50 per gallon for distilled spirits, from 40 cents to $1.20 per gallon for wine, and from 9 cents to 54 cents per gallon for beer; expressing the State tax rates for alcoholic...

Saya juga dari Amerika tapi pernah tingal di Indonesia dan belajar bahasa Indonesia. Welcome to the Forum.

We need more people from Western Maryland! I think we've met our quota for down state brewers.
