w00 brewday!!!!!!!

 

[RighteousFire]

Running late as I do with everything.

 

[jezter6]

ugh. i feel a little rough this morning...

we drained 6 bottles of mead, killed the keg of Tet Offensive, and made probably 50-60 gallons of brew.

All in all, pretty good brewday and not quite the total cluster**** that they usually are.

 

[claphamsa]

ya, it went well. i was in bed at 9 pm last night, and didnt get out of bed till 8.... apparently i was tired! which explains my crankyness yesterday

 

[Ryan_PA]

I had a great time. Thanks again for hosting Al.

Tell me about it. I think I passed out around 1030 last night and just woke up a couple minutes ago.

 

[Yunus]

Yeah it was a good brew day. I think the success is partly due to smaller brewing groups. Mine is bubbling away right now, hope it turns out good.

 

[jezter6]

Mike's passed out on the floor...good brew day.

 

[claphamsa]

He passed out in front of the TV around 9:30, then started banging crap around in the morning and woke me up at 8:30 this morning, then he passed out watching football for 3 hours.

I'm flippin tired. I wish it was after 9 so I could feel good about just going to bed.

 

[Yooper]

Where are the photos? C'mon! I need to see the pictures of the brew day!

 

[dataz722]

I don't think there are any pictures, unless I was just too drunk to notice.

 

[Yunus]

We really do need to document this stuff better. We must have had at least 5 burners going at one time.
