I have 280 bottles I would like to give away. They are all de-labeled and clean (they are a little dusty). Some are New Belgium some are Samuel Adams some are just plain bottles. Most are long neck, some short bottles. They are free all I ask is you pay to have them shipped to you. If you...

Snowing Like crazy -- about 2 inches per hour, good old LES {Lake Effect Snow} so I declared a snow day and stayed home to brew a Centennial IPA.

Right now the temp is 1.6F and by 9PM it should be about -1F or so. I think after I bottle I am going to suit up and go for a walk into the woods and enjoy the snow and cold. Maybe I will get to see a break in the clouds and the moon rising, if I am real lucky I can find a devil to dance with in...

Good Morning Homebrew Talk ... It is brew day for batch number 110, a Belgian Ale --- my first Belgian!

Last February I bottled a Black Ale, it had a noticeable off flavor. After carbonating the brew's off flavor was intense and undrinkable. Not sure how to describe the off flavor.. sort of astringent and sort of green apple but not really either. I let the beer sit in storage for several months...

The arrow pierces deep, slender cedar shaft feathered and notched penetrating, breaking, running. Dimness and fading, Tramping, trailing, seeking. Triumph and tragedy, Remorse and feasting.

So I am here, sitting in the brewery, with music turned up loud (YES -- Fragile 1972) drinking Centennial IPA (my 6th) savoring every sip, knowing my that my wife is not pleased and my 19 year old granddaughter,home on spring break, is not happy ( music too loud... me drinking), and yet I cannot...

I am beginning to believe that I may the only person in this country who is not going to watch the Superbowl? I am brewing a Pilsner today instead. Anyone else not going to watch the Superbowl?

For post 1000 I thought it appropriate to pause and reflect. I brewed batch 1 on 27 DEC 2010 a Mr Beer kit. I was not impressed. Batch 2 was in February of 2011. That is how long it took me to build a 3 gallon all grain system. I also joined in Feb. 2011. Batch 3 was my first left over...

Drinking a stout (2 so far) and sitting on my picnic table trying to figure out how to drink more stout (they are tasty) and not get totally intoxicated. Any ideas?

... to brew? Labor Day 2012 will be the 1st anniversary of my first brew in my brew room. I am wondering what to brew, the first brew was an amber ale that was okay but I am not a big fan of amber ales. I have an English Porter recipe I researched for months that turned out great (best...

Having never grown hops before I am uncertain if these are flowers, these were planted June 5th and if these are flowers can hops actually flower in 40 days?

MODS: If this is the wrong Forum please move as appropriate. Last night I attempted to make two starters. I had two vials of White Labs WLP060 American Ale Blend. I was going to use them in my first high gravity beer; an American Barley Wine and my plan was to split a 5.25 gallon batch into...

I just finished bottling the best brown ale I have ever done. Even flat and green this beer is clear and has a nutty toasty taste that is absolutely killer, came in at 6.5%. The great thing is, I know why! I know specifically and exactly why. I altered 1 thing from all the other times I have...
