    alcohol abuse

    Yup. Know the volume of beer you have and figure out how much priming sugar to use

    Extract versus all grain?

    If you plan on continuing to do it don't hesitate

    Extract versus all grain?

    It depends on who's writing the instructions. I have seen it several ways and each way influences the results differently i.e.hop utilization and color. Figure out what you want out of your beer and go for it. If your looking for consistency switching the procedure will not give you that

    Possibly underpitched? Repitch or dump?

    Let it ride at this point. All I can do is restate what schokie said, it is right on.

    Where to get good beer in Chicago?

    They pretty much gave you the main info you need. There are also some great craft beer bars that will have the local goods on tap and for sale

    Why aren't my hops growing?

    That's rough sorry to hear. Do you have them planted in the ground or in pots? Are they getting enough water? And if they are does your soil have good enough drainage? If it's too clay like with poor drainage it will rot the roots. If it isn't getting much water and it's hot death is certain

    At what point should I not drink it?

    The growth tells you it's a no go. Dump it. All sorts of funk will get in it without an airlock. What is covering it?

    Pitching the starter

    Pitch it all. There is a lot of yeast suspended in there. If you were going to decant you would want to settle the yeast out for a few days in the refrigerator. Hope that helps!
