    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    Kentucky Ale..... This stuff makes Colt45 seem easy drinking...it is so sickly sweet with an aftertaste that resembles well used hockey equipment....even the juice of an entire lime cannot save this filth...

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    Ohhhh buddy, you don't just drink clamato straight... It's for making Ceasers.... Or could mix it with beer 2 parts beer to 1part clamato... I find a light beer works best... Or any mass produced big name beer will do.... And yes it is great on a hot day... :tank:

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    Old speckled hen.....if find one in a can, anything in a clear bottle shouldn't be drank(I'm sure we all know why)......if your lucky you can order it in a can, it's a good brew... Just not in a clear bottle..

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    I was recently offered a can of MGD64...... I am utterly speechless.... Who in there right mind drinks this stuff?... It tasted like soda water with a few flecks of yeast in it... At the end of the night I was offered the entire case... What a huge suprize..! As I regretfully declined, I had a...

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    It's funny, my sister worked a summer in Australia, and the Aussies don't drink fosters either. Kinda like most canadians don't drink labatts blue, seriously we don't, it's a far cry from a good pilsner. Worst beer as of late? Majic hat number 9...... God, it tastes like fermented mushroom...

    Favorite Extract Kit

    If you can find them, Black Rock makes the best kits I've ever come across. Your local store should be able to order them. Not sure what they do different but it make a more full tasting beer.... As some kits taste like there missing something.

    Dry Hoppping - to bag or not to bag

    Put it in with the yeast, the longer the better...I always put my "dry"hops in with the yeast...(before but within about 10 minutes).... I find i get a more full flavor from them, that's just me mind you, so I guess it's up to trial and error.... If you pit it in with the yeast it will sink with...

    First timer looking for help (bottling)..

    If you carbonate in the Carlo rossie jug, your going to have a glass grenade in your closet, it's not ment to have internal pressure... The growlers can take a little bit, but it's ment for storage in cold temperatures... Good luck...

    First timer looking for help (bottling)..

    Your on the right track, if your moving a lot, I would invest in a few dozen grolsh(with the pop tops) you don't need a capper this way... You only news about 48 to do a 6gallon batch... The rubber seals will last a few years or more... Besides, then you have a decent brew to drink while your...

    Has anyone else gotten sick from home brewing?

    I'm thinking gluten allergy as well, the test is simple now, they just do a blood test.... And don't worry you can brew gluten free beer... I have a few friends with this allergy, you would be surprised at how easy it is to cope with, go get tested.

    Carbonation temp?

    Hmmmmm, I guess I'll have to start buying more Grolch(bigger bottles, no capping).... But that makes sense, I'm in there every second day...at least when I'm aging beef it's ok to check on it from day to day.... Thanks for the helpful advice everyone...:mug:

    Well, I'm not panicking... It just never took this long to get bubbles.... Iknow the rules.... Never give up, always give it time...I guess it's stronger than I thought... Thanks for the advise... I guess I shall wait...

    Carbonation temp?

    Ok, my brew has been in the bottles for a week.... No carbonation.. The sugar just made the beer really sweet.... The room is quite cool(basement) Does the temp affect the process? I used the coopers sugar tablets(first time)... This has never happened before... I use pop top bottles... I've...
