Very true. They just reopened the brew pub in morgantown though,. Haven't been yet, but plan on it soon. UPDATE: kit is sold.

also note I live in an area with a signle LHBS within a hour's drive, so I obviously got raped on the price... $120 seemed fair to me.

Make an offer, as long as it's far. I just chose a number at random and I need the cash :)

anyone? anyone? bueller? bueller?

edit: sold!

Oh man, I've been a way for a while and wasn't getting email notifications that people had posted more replies! I'll be back later to answer the new questions if I can. I haven't dumped the batch yet but I can add this: Last weekend I tastes a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale for the first time...

HAHAHA, I would except she's not much of a beer fan anyway :mug:

wow, lots of new posts to reply to: 1) I'll be visiting my LHBS this friday if he's open (odd hours, this guy) so maybe he can help 2) I did not use the pump on the first batch for aeration, I just poured vigerously as per "How To Brew" (I foollowed the instructions there to the letter) so...

I thought it may be the hops at one point too, with my "virgin" pallette, but both batches used different hops, and yet the same flavor is there. The Irish Red did use EKG and Willamette (although now their website saus US Goldings). It's been in the bottle for about 6 weeks. I'm not going...
