Thanks Jon, I'll check out BevMo I think theres one in Brea. Also nice Brew Rig!

Any new up dates on any of the Drifter Clones? I LOVE this Beer!! I can only seem to find it in a Mixed Veriety pack :( there is only 3 in there... I would love to make a 5 gal. batch for the summer, Hell I would even settle for an extract recipe. Thanks guys

Poo Brew....?

In most cases a corny will last 2-3 week and to me the seems about right... I like to always keep one in the pipeline, this way I stay in the hobby and I ways have one ready to go. I have a session in the primary right now, it's a scottish 60- I wanted to try something different ( should finish...

Yes I know eveyone is different, I just want to know how long a corny keg last you... I'm sure it depends a lot of things for most. I like to brew beer that I know that I'm going to drink, So I know it's not going to be hangin around very long. I like to do 5gals at a time for that very reason...

Ok... So it still has alot of clove on the backend but its drinkable. When they said spiced ale they ment it... I think if I brew this one again I'll cut some of the clove back and insted of adding the spices to the boil I may just add it to the fermenter. For me it's not a everyday drinker so...

I added the pumpkin to the seconary, and I noticed the the loss of sweetness yesterday.

Hey Craig, thanks for the reply. So I went ahead an added 3 cans of pumpkin on Sunday it seems to have lost some sweetness and not sure why?? The clove is still there but it seems to be a bit better. I'm planing on bottling this batch to see how it comes out over time , So if I decide to do it...

I was thinking canned pumpkin... but just not sure how to go about it. I'm not to worried to much about the yield, the batch is about 51/2 gals so I should be ok. I know the Clove will still be there but I would like it to have something else goin on...

Hey Pericles, Thanks for the reply. I hear what your saying... All I know is that its is much clove for me, I may try to split the batch and add some pumpkin to one and maybe something else to the outher. Can you add pumpkin or Orange peel to a secondary??

Hey Craig, I have a few questions... How much brown suger did you add to your batch? I'm assuming it's 5gals. was the vanilla over powering? and Last I was thinking about adding pumpkin to my winter spiced ale when I rack to the secondary but not sure how much, any thoughts... I'm kinda looking...

Would it be to late to add some Pumpkin?? that might taste goooood.

I just did a Winter Spiced Ale and posted about it, I thought it had to much clove for me. I was thinkin can I add Pumpkin to it??

Hey Guys, On Oct.10th. I brewed a Winter spiced ale, it's still in the primary fermenter. My Prob is that it has ALOT of clove taste, I knew it would but WOW maybe to much for me. I was thinking about adding some orange peel or more hops in the secondary; what do you think? I know it's still in...

If I run out of beer I just leave the lines alone till my next batch is done, If i don't have one in the pipeline. this way at least I know no Ox or bad beer bugs can get in...
