Bell's Oberon earlier. Oskar Blues G'Knight. A big hoppy kick ass imperial red. This beer is soooooooo good. Glad to see it back out during the spring season.

Yep, it's hard to get people into brewing because people don't realize how much work it is or how long it takes. Most people think (at least my friends) its awesome until all of the work they see (or waiting or equipment you have to buy). It takes a lot of time and investment. Most people...

sweetwater ipa wins

That is some good stuff. A nice parody and quite humorous.

Sam with a guest appearance. This is funny1

Ok well I have a general starting point. Thanks. I will take it from here. When I sit back and look at it, it seems a little on the low side for a IIPA (the total amount of hops used). Maybe I will turn it up a notch on the later additions. Thanks.
