Anyone hitting up any events for beer week? I'm going to the beer fest at the shipyard today and then will be competing in the Clone Brew War competition at City Tap House tomorrow
Anybody know where I'd be able to rent/borrow a jockey box? My buddy is having an oktoberfest party on oct 17th and I'm bringing 2 kegs.
I should have mentioned that i checked there. They are having there huge Made on American Street event the following day, so they aren't loaning any out
SWMBO asked what I wanted to do on my bday, and naturally I said a trip to Tired Hands. For those that have been there, what kind of chaos can I expect on a weekend. Haven't decided on the brew cafe or the fermentaria yet. Which is better? Growler fills still TH logo only?
Anyone going to the Lagunitas party Friday night?
In case anybody is interested, I have VIP tickets for this event. I am "Doug M" as referenced in the banner. Anybody can go to this for free, but the VIP tickets get you in early and guarantee a spot. Otherwise, once the venue fills up, they close the doors. Also, I think there are some give aways for VIPs.
If you are interested in going, PM me. I have a few tickets left.
did I mention, the beer is free!
Getting very frustrated with my water supply. It's super chlorinated and I run it trough a filter, but I cant stop getting that medicinal taste. Just brewed an IPA with almost a # of hops and tasted the hydro sample and it was awful. Don't want to keep wasting all these hops on off-flavored beers. Where's the best spot to get larger quantities of RO water?
Just use campden! You don't even need to filter if you use campden (aka potassium metabisulfite). A water filter isn't going to work anyway, the contact time you need to get rid of chloramine is prohibitive to making it practical. a campden tab will knock it all out in a minute.
