I told this story a couple weeks ago to some fellow hbt'ers and they thought it may be worth sharing with everyone. Ill start by saying that my wife is German. I met her while I was stationed over there and every Apfelwein season (in Germany they dont do this year round typically) she would...

Im going to be doing a couple weissbiers this weekend, one hefe and one dunkel. I have been reading that when people do German beers they use a decoction when they want to stay true to German tradition. AHS told me just do my typical single infusion batch sparge. The hefe grain bill is...

No I dont want yours... I just ordered online, wondering what I have to do to get my key, I cant figure it out. I got an order confirmation email just cant seem to find my key anywhere. Where is it?

So I just got back from the Flying Saucer (The Flying Saucer Draught Emporium - www.beerknurd.com) and tonight was Stone Ruination night. After 44 oz of this beer I came home and ate chili. I couldnt even tatse the chili. Im a hophead but this beer is just ridiculous. How many pounds of...

So no question here just wanted to comment that I got a pretty basic homebrew kit on My birthday Aug. 6th, just about as soon as I could I tried to make an English Brown Ale, So that sits in Secondary now and I found myself passing AHS today and stopped to pick up a couple more Primary...

I started a batch of apfelwein yesterday from Edworts recipe. Everything went really smooth as it is extremely simple to make, but yesterday we had some airlock activity, today it seems to have stopped but my question is about the smell. It has pretty much stunk up the pantry we are keeping it...
