    Classic Tunes

    These guys crack me up with their look and mannerisms, but a great tune nonetheless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8nsUGtdWNQ

    Remember when...

    I love this thread. I was born at the ass end of the 70s. I'm surprised no one mentioned these: I remember using bbs in the pre-internet days. I loved the text game LegendOftheRedDragon. I also loved the pirate software and porno bbs's. Once you found one bbs, you downloaded the...

    Remember when it did not include the phrase "under god" shoehorned in the middle.

    Things about your co-workers that annoy you

    Honestly there isn't anyone left to annoy me. My company had about 6,000 employees as of last summer. We are now down to less than 15. I've got at least 10,000 sf to myself.

    What's up with the IPA fad?

    Oso's from Wisconsin already does this. It's called Lupulin Maximus, there is a hop cone in each bottle.

    What's up with the IPA fad?

    Like the bourbon barrel fad? Personally, I love IPAs. I seek out local ones wherever I go. I have tried at least 200 different commercial examples. One of the biggest positives in homebrewing, for me, is having fresh hoppy beer. It sucks buying what should be a great hop forward IPA at the...

    Graham's English Cider

    I have a batch of Bitter fermenting on Wyeast 1469 West Yorkshire right now. Could I pour the apple juice directly onto the yeast cake?

    Social acceptance - Bringing your children to a brewery

    Our local craft beer bar recently told my wife and I that we couldn't bring our son any more (he's almost 2). Apparently their liquor license only allows 21 and over (since almost all of their revenue comes from booze). The funny thing is we've brought him 5+ times in the past without an...

    Have you brewed it without tasting the commercial version?

    Although at first thought couldn't relate, I was way wrong. The first beer that I ever brewed was the clone of a beer that I've never tried. NB's the Innkeeper kit is a clone of Timothy Taylor's Landlord; which is apparently a popular British Best Bitter. I really liked the resulting brew...

    Kolsch Strain slow to drop

    I just brewed my first Kolsch. Extract. I fremented at 63ish. It got down to 1.008 after 13 days (maybe earlier, that's when I checked gravity and transferred to the keg). The krausen didn't fully drop, but the gravity was right and the beer underneath was clear and tasty. I'm planning to...

    Brewery doesn't allow mixing beers

    I only recently tried mixing beers (and I agree that a proper black & tan is not a mix). I currently have a Zombie Dust clone and a Chinook/Simcoe APA on tap. The ZD is running low, so I've been mixing the two in order to satisfy my citrus hop cravings.
