Stone Delicious IPA. Very clear, crisp, citrusy IPA. Easy drinker at 7.7%

Cigar City has some excellent brews. Jai Alai is a favorite IPA. Got hooked up with one of these guys, really great brown ale. Off season for a brown but a good beer on a rainy night.

Cigar City Jai Alai Sweetwater IPA BP Grapefruit Sculpin

Jug was about half full, the rest filled up from krausen overflow! Now I use a wide mouth pitcher with even less sanitizer.

So we've all had those days. Spills during brewing, violent fermentations, etc. Just had my Kolsch blowoff overflowing into (and out of) my fermenter and I thought it would make a funny thread. What you can't see in this picture is the huge puddle of foamy, yeasty sanitizer/beer solution...

That looks great! One of the nicer collar-style keezers IMO. I like the stainless tiles also.

Definitely add pics, I found most of my ideas and inspiration for my build from posts on this forum. Every build posted adds to that library of info for the next guy to come along! As for the moisture, be sure your keezer is sealed up tight. I had this issue at first but once I gave another...

First pour off my latest HB IPA. Creature Comforts Tropicalia clone recipe from LHBS.

Brewed a Creature Comforts Tropicalia clone yesterday, already chugging along 12hrs later.

I'd bet a contractor grade yard waste bag would be sealed tight enough to hold. I'll bite, what's the intended use for the freezer pool?

Dogfish Head Romantic Chemistry IPA. Mango/apricot/ginger IPA. Really good, balanced beer. Smooth citrus from the mango and apricot is matched really well with some spice from the ginger.

A guy in my shop (on a deployed USN ship) got one that would beep every so often, he hid it in the overhead cabling. Well, I found it, and let's just say it didn't work any more, and there's no way he could have even found all the pieces.
