    northern brewers chinook ipa flavor

    I brewed this recently and got more of a citrusy, piney smell and flavors. I was impressed overall. My only complaint is it tasted kind of thin it had a decent (although light) malt profile it just didnt have alot of mouth feel.

    any good IPA extracts?

    I recently did the Chinook IPA kit from Northern Brewer and was pleasantly surprised by it. Nice hop aroma and mildly bitter, a great session beer. I have been thinking about doing some different variations on this theme (IPAs with only one hop variety) just to get a feel for what the...

    No the reason we HATE Shiner is because they use twist off bottles!

    Just for the hell of it bought a Coopers brewing system

    I use a coopers system and like it I have supplemented it with some other items that did not come with it. If you already have some equipment you probably won't need anything else.

    Good iPad cases?

    I've got mine in an Otter box and love it it's not overly bulky and provides better protection than most.

    cooper lager/ale kit

    I made this for my first brew, fermented at 68 for three weeks and after 2 weeks in the bottle it was pretty good, kinda like a steam beer. Five gallons didn't last very long! I might make it again down the road just to see if the experience I've gained since that first time makes any...

    Concealed Carry

    I got mine about 6 months ago and carry a Ruger LCP pretty regularly as it is the easiest thing to conceal under just a t-shirt. Sometimes I'll carry a Kel-Tec PF9 or if I have a heavy coat sometimes I'll pack the 5" 1911. Gotta watch "printing" here in TX, it could cost you your license.

    Beer Safe to Drink?

    I had a SNPA this weekend that looked very similar, except the particles seemed to be finer. After reading this thread I think it was probably hop particles. Tasted fine by the way!
