Christmas Presents!

[fenners]

I got the same Craft of Stone Brewery book as TonyR, looks cool. Also got tap handles for my kegerator (Sierra Nevada & a "shortie" Dogfish Head one that doesn't fit...). And a cool DFH cap

 

[Dogzbone]

8 gallon conical fermenter from Mini Brew, Brewing classic styles and a LP burner and regulator from Agri Supply!

 

[EllisTX]

Not a thing! All I asked for was a 7bbl brewhouse....

 

[Sacdan]

I got "Brewing Better Beer", a bunch of Christmas Beers, and a brand new 5 gallon oak barrel. I just filled it with Whiskey and water. I will let it soak for a week or two until I can brew up a big Barleywine or RIS. I am stoked! Merry Christmas everyone!

 

[Teromous]

I got a beer kit that arrived just in time to get a starter going Friday and be brewed yesterday. Perfect timing. I had a nice starter going, but no activity in it this morning. The real present would be some airlock activity, but we all know how that is

Merry Christmas!

 

[TomSD]

Figured I had been good this year so I ordered myself a Blichmann Boilermaker. No time to brew on it this weekend but next weekend I'm all over my first BIAB attempt.

 

[Screwtape]

I got a burner of my choice from the wife. Don't know whether it's for me or her since she wants me out of her kitchen. Psyched none the less.

 

[Snowhere]

I just got a beer calendar! It works as I needed a calendar to put on my fermentation chamber to keep track of my brews with a quick glance!

 

[JuanKenobi]

Merry Christmas everyone! I got a refractometer and a "Zymgurgist" t-shirt, as well as a "I'm a homebrewer's daughter" shirt for my daughter and a boy version onsey for my unborn son!

 

[unionrdr]

I got one of those spray wands that hooks to the sink faucet. Looks like a low powered water drill. Gunna make cleaning FV's & brew kettles way faster.

 

[Hermit]

I got a rock.

Wanna trade? I'm being stupid here because I've been assured it is a "magic rock", but ....

 

[rmullins]

20G Boilermaker

 

[unionrdr]

I got one of those spray wands from Midwest that hooks to the faucet for cleaning FV's & brew kettles,etc. Gunna make cleaning my fermenters 4 or 5 days faster,not to mention saving on PBW.

 

[sheeshomatic]

Merry Christmas all! Got my 60qt pot (off to bargain fittings tomorrow), a new perlick faucet and a laptop bag... Oh that's not related.

 

[Hermit]

20G Boilermaker

See above in case that poster turns down the offer. Slim chance he would pass on the magic rock though....

 

[Diver165]

6 pack of Chimay Blue. He even put it in the fridge for me!!! And a Chimay gift set with all 3 styles and a cool ass Chimay beer glass. Santa has good taste in brews!

Oh ... and 3 - 20gal Blichmanns and a false bottom.

Woot! woot!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas so far!!! Merry Christmas! And now it's time to make a pig of myself.

 

[biestie]

Thermapen, and enough gift certificates and money to make a big time haul... decisions.

 

[Nightbiker]

Alas, I didn't get any brewing-related gifts. But DID get a Kabar knife (I'll use it to skin and de-bone deer when I go hunting).

 

[IrregularPulse]

The wife and I just went in together on one gift. Opened it early on the 22nd

 

[Krane]

60 qt pot, $50 to my lhbs, and a stirplate/2l erlenmeyer flask...and that was only one side of my family last night. Also a really awesome wyeast poster with a listing of all their strains.

 

[atoyot]

Congrats. Santa has a remarkable way of knowing what brewers need. Next year I should remember to leave him more than milk.

My kids always want to leave Santa a beer , this year we picked up a 22 of Santa's Reserve from Rogue. They thought it was the coolest thing in the world that he had his own beer.

Merry Christmas and a stellar holiday season to all of my fellow HBTers!!!

I guess I wasn't as bad of a boy as I thought this year.... Santa brought me a MaltMill and my wife and I a year membership to Midwest Supply's ale of the month club! :rockin: I feel like the luckiest guy one earth!

Hope you all have a great holiday season filled with family, joy, love and last but not least, good homebrew!!

[duckmanco]

I got 3 requested extract kits from NB-

Caribou Slobber
Oatmeal Stout
Oud Bruin de Table

Already got the order worked out, oud bruin gets done first and then aged, caribou slobber and then oatmeal stout only because I only have a keg of oatmeal stout going.... Great Christmas.

 

[stat]

2 16 oz new belgium glasses and a shirt.
I think I'll get my self a stirplate and a flask/stir bar. Dropped near $1000 on everyone else I get some glasses. Nice glasses I'm enjoying very much with some of my year old 10% brown ale. But still glasses.

When I went to the mall last week and sat on Santa's lap, all I asked for is a Cornie keg for Christmas. Instead he brought me a Coleman 70 Qt extreme cooler for a new and improved mashtun. I suppose that will do. Damn Santa, always suprising me......
