First off, Welcome to Homebrew Talk! Check this out, it should help. - www.brewersassociation.org/pages/government-affairs/self-distribution-laws It lists (in simple terms) what the laws are for each state.

A longtime friend and I got into this a few years ago and have been brewing batches together ever since

wide load

long gone

Yuengling doesn't distribute east of New York state for some reason. We can't get it here in Mass either, gotta go to NY for it.

For brewing I'd pick up a kegging kit, keggerator, top tier brewing stand. For serving those delicious beers I'd build a modest bar and then install the keg system in it. Man, that would be nice!

Greetings from Springfield! You may want to throw that fermenting brew in the closet to keep it out of the light. Glad youre addicted already, it only gets worse! :mug:

Just saved that picture to my computer for future reference. Thanks for it! I too like the comic style!

Put the carboy in a milk crate. What an awesome idea! How did I not think of this? Got a friend who works at a grocery store, guess its time to ask for a favor!

@Lordmorphous, about how long did it take for you to complete the process on brew day? Also good job on the efficiency! A friend and I have done a few all grain batches so far and I feel like it takes less time each time we do it because were getting better at it. Looking over the notes from...

Sounds like you're have a good time! Wish I had the time/money to this!

I brew all grain, so its a long process. I try start up by 10:30 or 11 on a weekend or day off. That lets me be done right around dinner and gives me an excuse to just grab a pizza because I've been "working" all day!

Bought a few fittings for my kettle and mash tun. Only a few more little things till my all grain setup is complete!

Ill get behind that too, I always drink 1 or 2 glasses of water before heading to bed. I almost never get hungover the next day after doing that. Back in the college days it was grab some McDonalds on the way home, it worked, but that stuff wrecks my stomach these days.

I never use my carboy for primary. I always use the my plastic vessel for primary, carboy for secondary. Reason being I once put a 5gal batch into my carboy for primary and ended up with a volcano. The pressure from primary was too much and actually shot the airlock and stopper out of the...

I drink all of it, no need to waste any! +1 on tennesseean 87's above post, the beer changes so much during conditioning that it usually doesnt taste much like your original sample at all. I still do it though, just because I like to.
