Hey Everyone, A local award winning whiskey distiller that I have had the pleasure of aging some recent beers in is emptying a bunch of 10 Gallon barrels this week. http://www.oldlinespirits.com/ They are selling the fresh 10 gallon barrels at $100 a pop. I recently brewed a Belgium strong...

Just noticed the old OP date. Hope this helps some other traveler.

Sour fan... Love and Regret. Not a brewpub but the restaurant showcase of Stillwater brewing. They usually have a handful of sours on tap. http://www.ofloveandregret.com/files/ofloveandregret_draught_collection.pdf

Monument City Brewing is a up and comer but unfortunately not open on Wednesdays either. http://www.monumentcitybrewing.com/ They have the bonus of being located a few blocks from a whiskey tasting room http://www.oldlinespirits.com/ Like others said open breweries are tough I would...

Hello, I received for fathers day a 10 gallon whiskey barrel from a local distiller that was emptied of a peated malt whiskey just at the beginning of June. I have just decided on the brew I want to age in it but probably will not be ready to fill it until the end of July. Is there a...

Hi All, I am writing to call for brewers for a homebrew contest that takes place on December 3rd Noon - 5pm near the Patterson Park area of Baltimore City. This contest is sponsored by the local public Charter School and benefits 7th and 8th grade students with scholarship to their bi...

Sorry if I was confusing the wort is about 8 months old. So I ended up brewing an old english barley wine style (the OG was low for a barley wine - 1.077). The aim was 10 gallons I ended up with 11 gallons at 1.075. 24 hours prior to brewing I made a starter Wyeast 1098 but prior to pitching...

Hopefully I am hitting the right forum with this topic. About 8 months ago I brewed a all brett beer with fresh sour cherries in the fermentation. The beer added up with a nice cherry flavor and a little sour funk I liked but wanted more. When bottling I decided to leave all the trub...

I had been doing a run of higher gravity beers which have benefited from at least 30 days in my cellar but as I am still a bit of a newbie I taste every 7 to 10 days to see how things are progressing. This beer ended up clocking in at about 4.2% so that is a factor. This is my first batch I...

Already in the fridge - if I pull them back out after 24 hours what did I lose? The head was not a quick dissipating, in fact I was doing other things and when finishing the beer I had opened 20 minutes later there was still a nice creamy lacing ontop. The beer was if anything just a hair to...

I have been brewing for about a year and a half and have done around 15 batches. A week ago I bottled a smoked milk stout I had made a while back and wanted to see if I could recreate. The first batch I made took a little over 30 days in the bottle of my 68 degree basement to get a nice...

So it is Muntons that I have. From talking it out with my partner a pale ale approaching an IPA would be best to describe of what we want with the bittering and hop additions. At one point I was also using cascade (in conjunction with the amarillo and citra additions) but decided to back off...

Okay finally going to brew this up this weekend. My main question is on the Caramel 40L - should I do 60L instead? I really want a good malt flavor - does the marris otter give me enough so I do not have to worry that much about the Caramel?

Thanks for the input. I fed the recipe into Brewers Friend and the IBU's were calculated by that program. As I have just relied on book recipes in the past this is new to me also. I originally had the hop schedule more spread out but the calculator was giving me above 100 IBU's. I wanted to...

Hi all, I posted this in the grain forum but found this and thought it belonged here. I have been doing home brewing for about a year and have always done all grain. I have about 12 brews under my belt with the first few being kits and than the rest being recipe follows (the later few...
