I've thought about that too, but Atlanta has a pretty high geek to normal ratio. If you've ever been in town during DragonCon you'd understand. :D

Greetings! I've been a habitual lurker on these forums for a couple years now, and I have learned a great deal from all you guys, so thank you for helping me discover my passion for brewing. I am putting together a business plan with my local college's Small Business Development center, and...

Yay! Congrats!

The address is 408 S Atlanta ST., #157, Next to a place called Sugo. I should be able to go see the space this week and give more details at that time.

I will now be selling fine craft ales and lagers at Ale Yeah!'s new store in Roswell GA, opening July 1st! Imma get paid to talk about beer all day!

For the record, I would like to apply for the position of "massaged bottling elf".

I guess there is nobody who dislikes Fuggles. :P

If you have a Trader Joe's nearby, this beer tastes all right but it comes in swing tops and the label falls off in a sanitizer soak. http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/neros-apecchio-red-ale/160170/

So I brought homebrew to a family gathering for the first time today, my pumpkin porter. Feedback included: 1. As we went around saying what we were thankful for during grace, my nerdy college professor uncle said "Would it be appropriate to say I am thankful for Brandon's homebrew?" 2...

I mash with 5 gallons of water in my 7.5 G turkey fryer aluminum pot with a 5 gallon paint strainer bag, then twist, drain, press down with the pot lid then sparge with another 2.5 gallons to hit a 7 gallon boil volume. Usually boils down to 5 gallons. Ive been able to do a batch of 12-13 lbs...

"Feeding the llama" sounds like a dirty euphemism of some sort.

Yep. Ive brewed the centennial blonde ale before, and I definitely recognized the flavors, but with bell's its just so in your face I really got an appreciation for it.

Just tried it for the first time. It's like....millions of bubbly tangerines just exploded in mah mouf! That is a tasty, and potent, beverage!

My Halloween pumpkin porter was called Night of the Living Bread and the label was Eric Villafane's pumpkin carving of a zombie crawling out of a humongous pumpkin. I added a word balloon next to the zombie to where he's moaning about "Graaaaaaaiiins"

I feel ya dude. It's such a soul-crushing feeling, more so I guess because we make it with our own hands.

Well, I keep my bottles in old 12-pack boxes (as you can see) in the furnace/water heater room downstairs. My water heater bit the dust this past Sunday and flooded that room, which weakened the bottom of the box. So when I picked them up the bottom fell out; all 12 bottles hit the tile floor...

They were my own. My first IPA, AND the first all-grain batch where I hit all my numbers. Thankfully I only lost 6. This is gonna be a tasty one. :)

No, I always wear shoes to bottle cause I'm on my feet so much and I need the support.

The crash scared the crap out of my 16-month old baby girl too. So we had a good cry together. :D
