Lots of serious inquires on the page here, and inspired by a couple of comments I saw today, I thought I might start this off and see what other interesting stories we might get! Apologies if this against the forum rules.
You haven't lived life until you come around the corner at 5am starting to get ready for work, only to see the lid of your fermenter LITERALLY blow off and hit the ceiling, leaving a trail of krausen/wort all up the wall and down the floor. I can't even make that **** up, it was perfect (or I guess not? lol) timing...I let out an audible "W T F?!", my wife said she heard me and closed her eyes real tight and prayed I didn't wake her to ask for help hahahaha.
My beer was the first of my own concoction, and was to be named after myself (or my nickname rather) "Jack's Double Ale" - I felt it was only fitting that it be renamed "Angry Jack's Double Ale" after its little outburst that morning. Beer turned out fine, despite my worries that it was toast after that upheaval, and ended up being quite tasty!
So fellow HBTer's, what stories do you have?
