    Dogs

    Our two rescue dogs, Jackson and Jersey (L-R). Both are about one and a half and half chihuahuas. Jackson's other half is clearly dachshund, and Jersey's other half is >cough<. Both of them doing what they do best: Jackson in post-belly rub euphoria and Jersey chasing sunlight.

    Southern California Brewers, where do you get your gear?

    Yeah, it's definitely cheaper (usually) to order online and Surf has the added obstacle of the cost of a few pints when you stop by (not always a bad thing). I have a recipe I'm looking to try out and I need a replacement True Brew lid and, since HBE has them (searched high and low through...

    < $5.00 Drip Tray

    There was absolutely no way I was spending an additional $60+ for a drip tray, so DIY mode continued (finishing a custom tap handle too). Took a trip to my local big box hardware store (the blue one, not the orange one) and picked up the following: 4" Green Round Grate - $2.08 4"...
