Looks great! Thanks for the offer!

In! Thank you!

I'm in, thank you!

Hops won't be able to start until April or whenever your last frost is (I believe early May here in Denver). First year can be hit or miss if they'll produce cones, so realistically you're looking at October 2018 for a beer made with only your hops. You might get a few batches per bine if you do...

I made an Indian Pumpkin Ale a few years ago it was well received. Even the guy who didn't like pumpkin beers liked it.

So I have a pound of Hopunion whole leaf centennial (A: 11.0%, B: 4.0%) that's been laying around the house for an old brew I never got around to. It's been stored in the house at room temperature and is probably 2-3 years old at this point (anyone know if there's a date stamped on these? I...

Well, assuming it's WLP065 it even says it's suitable for high-gravity beers on the packet. You might call it a waste but I'd be interested in what came out.

:drool: Thanks Ss Brewtech!

Sounds like you got yourself a brewer's assistant. Either that, or convince them to brew too so you can share bulk grain costs and beers!

I did something similar last November, I'll probably move it over soon to see what happened. I had some leftover grains that were already milled laying around and I was going to throw out. I also had some hops from a previous batch I didn't completely use. I made two 1 gallon batches of a SMaSH...

Try brewing a high gravity RIS, barleywine, or similar? My guess is the yeast is just made with high alcohol tolerance in mind. Give it a shot and write a quick summary of what happens!

Cool to know, and making an appointment makes sense. Did they say the best way to contact them -- call or maybe an email address to reach out to?

In! All Grain - RIS

I could most certainly use this.

Hopefully I'm not too late to the party! Cheers!

Let's do this!

Finally in this thing! Woo!

My old roommate from back East sadly informed me (we can't get Bells in Colorado) that someone mixed up kegs and tapped the Hopslam keg as Two Hearted Ale. I've been crying ever since.

Awesome! Enjoy it thoroughly! He's a great guy and can talk all day about beer. Definitely join the fermentation club and give a hand if you have time! It's not too much of a commitment and you get a ~6-pack every month! Cheers!

Ah well I used some weight and kept pushing until my fingers hurt. "SNAP" With much excitement, I kept going symmetrically around it hoping not to release it. Long story short, I got it secured in the primary and the airlocks chugging away like normal. Lesson learned the hard way (although...
