...When you're booting up the computer in the morning,& decide to look at the newest copy of "Great Lakes Brewing News" you discovered at the lhbs the day before. I'd gone in to get some American oak chips for my Whiskely Stout I'm gunna brew up next Saturday,& an Italian spigot to replace the barrel tap that got stiff on the Ale Pail.
Anyway,I was leafing through the brewing news paper,& found maps with the breweries marked on them somwhere in the middle for the surrounding states!! Roads,highways & all! you guys gotta pick this up,volume 18,number 5.
It'll make a downright handy brewery tour guide. Just had to let y'all know about this one!:rockin:
Exactly! I just thought twice about buying a 4 pack of Surly Bender. I can't get it close to home. It's excellent, but comes in cans. 😥. In the end I of course bought it. I compared side to side with my clone kit. My wife actually preferred mine 😃

This isn't the 'you know you're obsessive compulsive when...' thread. I don't even have my second brew day for the week planned yet.GrogNerd said:when you already have brew days planned out for all of 2014 CHECK!
You pour your Sam Adams "slow homebrew style". You know to leave the yeast behind.

Hmm, Woot?SWMBO came home tonight and said I had to start bottling some beers out of the kegs, she traded MY full beers for empties with her boss
1 full beer = 12 empties and he's going to do all the sanitizing and de-labelling as well
I figure if I don't have to clean the bottles and a 4 pack is all it costs me to get 48 empties ready to go, I'm definitely on a winnerHmm, Woot?
