MMMMMMM! SOOOOOO GOOOOD! AHHHHHHHHH! REFRESHING!

It's ok though. I'll be in your boat probably in about a month when I have drank or given away my supply. 5 gallons is going to Winterfest here in Indy next weekend. I'm hoping the organizers stick me in a dark corner at the end of a treacherous and deadly maze filled with Minotaurs.
Would you be willing to send me that recipe?

And.... Go to pour a glass of RyePA to enjoy while working on the house and...
GONE!
I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
I have some bottles but it will be a while before anything I brew this weekend will be ready to drink.
To top it off I'm going to see Les Miserable with the wife.

I hate that sound when a keg kicks. one reason I like to have a few "long agers" in bottles.
I have grown to like that sound. I brew more than I can drink and generally I'm happy to see a keg finally kick cause that means the next thing in my pipeline can be tapped. So much beer,so very much beer.
I suppose I could stop brewing every weekend but it's just so much damn fun
This is what happens to me a lot.....i tap a keg and have a couple of beers. Thinking I should still have plenty the following week I pour a beer and its gone!!!!!! What the @#$#!!!!! Oh yeah.....the kids were home from school on the weekend.And.... Go to pour a glass of RyePA to enjoy while working on the house and...

Well my good sir,
I am only 12 miles away and you may use the the brew room any time you like!
I have a black lager bottled and ready to drink
I have an Oatmeal lager bottled and ready to drink
I have an English Ported bottled and ready to drink
I have a Centennial IPA bottled and ready to drink plus some Christmas ale and some Columbus Pale Ale a Nugget Pale Ale and a Rye Pale Ale.
If you prefer you can bring your equipment and just use the burners.. however you like... I would be more than happy to take a day off and brew at your convenience! It may not be exactly warm ... 45 with big fan running but better than the -5F it is right now!
Edit: I also have excellent well water to brew with!
I certainly do have enough in the pipe to share... can drop off a couple sixers Thursday! on the way home from work ....
