Just make sure its all sealed airtight. I watched one of those customs dogs sniff out a few apples that were purchased overseas and were ziplocked in their checked bag.

There is also Guinness 250th Anniversary Stout. I'm personally not a fan, but the foreign extra is one of my favs. I had my first (and 50th) in London when I was sent there for work. They were sold as singles and cost about $2.30 a bottle after conversion. It was one of the cheapest beers...

If you are planning on keeping this as a long term hobby, go with the glass. Also, I'd go with a kit that has a bigger primary bucket than 5 gal... Then you will save yourself the worry of overflowing airlocks and whatnot.

I'm still a dozen batches away from even considering this... but for those of you who built your own immersion chillers, how did you create such precise coils? thanks, Chad

I am definitely noting all of these suggestions, but I am already in the primary. My question is geared more toward what type of result should I expect using the hop schedule that I did. By the looks of the responses I got, the aroma may be a little dull. Should I dry hop it longer than 2...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be sure to note this somewhere in my recipe. Something to consider for the next time.

I began my new lifetime hobby last night with a BB Imperial Pale Ale kit as my first beer. I wasn't fond of the idea of using all columbus hops as included in the kit, so I decided to change things around. I am wondering if anyone could provide me with some input as to whether the new hop...
