You're excited about Christmas again since you know you're getting some kind of brewing stuff. Besides the 2 full batches of beer that'll be peaking in time for Christmas & New Years.

I was just told by two guys I work with, by the way who go me involved in brewing, that I need an intervention. Multiple carboys of beer, alpfenwein and mead going, trolling Craigslist for any home brewing supplies (ie carboys, corny kegs, bottles, ect) and just purchased a chest freezer to build a kegerator.
They say I'm obsessed, I say I'm ahead of the curve! :rockin: They need to catch up.

i was walking by 2 people who were talking. 1 said "that's a 45 and a 25". I thought "that's not a good hop schedule!"

When you come into work early just so you can get on HBT and check the threads!
When you spend your bonus to upgrade your system from propane to electric so you wont have to quit brewing in January when its too cold to run the hose to the chiller outside.

Were they talking about brewing or evaluating? Sounds to me like they described one beer as "Outstanding, a world-class example of style" and another as "Good, misses the mark on style and/or minor flaws"

I just said this to a brew buddy the other day (get Quote)
Reading BYO while dropping a duece? I wonder if that's what KISS had in mind with their lyric "you know your man is workin hard...he's worth a duece!"? Iow,he ain't worth shizz!? They never did admit what that meant.

When you start to wonder if sending a group text message to your extended family three minutes ago, that simply said, "87% efficiency!" was such a good idea.
When you're giving your beers there fridge time for the holiday,& you keep stopping to admire how clear & beautiful they are.

Your definatly sneaking into them before Christmas. Arn't you!
Things that make ya go hmmmm...Maybe. Her summer ale clone might be the better of the two to try tonight. The Burton ale may well need the week to get decent head & carbonation. The Whiskely ale did,& it was just shy of 10 weeks in the bottles.
But You know you're addicted when a member posts a link for a really cool freeby,& your all over it like shizz on velcro...!

When your wife pours a glass of Mott's apple juice and you run and grab your hydrometer so you can measure the gravity for your upcoming batch of Apfelwein.
SWMBO: What did you do with all of my stuff in the pantry
Me: moved it to make more room for brewing pots etc.
She also asked why I had wood chips in a jar of bourbon and asked if was going to chew on them... We are both learning as we go.

Yeah,boy! A lil bourbon soaked oak between the cheak & gum is mighty good!
Didn't think of that one. Hmmm...
