My son is now almost 4, we adopted him and were there for his first breath... They grow up fast, get a high speed camera to catch the action, it goes by in a flash. Sunday I brewed, my son was helping me dough in and add hops,moments before heating the strike water I heard a plunk, turned...

Yes please!!

Bubbling away happily, I made two changes this round, all EKG hops, and 1968 yeast

The citrus does fade in time, I try and enjoy mine fresh and young to keep things bright on the palette

Double brew day almost half over, 10 gallons of this mild, 10 gallons of biertent lager. Watching 20 gallons at one time for boilovers, hop additions etc is a chore!

Zest a tangerine or two and roll with that! Why not? Just rolling with what I had on hand is how I came up with the recipe in the first place!

1968 yeast starter, doing 10 gallons

Brewing this today.... Anybody know if this recipe is any good? :D

I always forget to boil 90 minutes.. I do an extended boil without fail when brewing a wee heavy, everything else all bets are off :D You will be fine!

Keep everyone posted how it goes, I have $10 that says it hits 1.004 within a week.

Ha! "I misplaced my trousers"

Here is the pic from my interview article, it's Albannach tartan. (Universal) it's a USAkilts casual kilt, great for summertime, and for daily wear and dirt cheap considering it's made to measure!

USAkilts -tartan kilts, wear one! Heritage is not an issue here, and so many universal tartans out there. UTkilts -tartan and utility kilts, great guy to deal with! Stillwater kilts -tartan kilts, best make space on your porch before ordering, he is legendary for his fast shipping....

Pick up a casual kilt or semi traditional from USAkilts, it's a bespoke kilt you can abuse, wear out and about, and toss it in the wash! the guys Rocky has working with him are all perfectionists, my kilts from him are all amazing!

I recently acquired a new kilt in the Albannach tartan from Rocky at USAkilts. It's my new go to kilt for daily wear. I think I was wearing it in my Brew-n-A interview.

I like brewing on a chilly morning while kilted, I get an occasional whisp of heat off the burner right up my kilt, warms the boys nicely.

Butt brown ale.....What tartan is that? Too many hams in the pic, I had to avert mine eyes

Ha! The best trick I've found is to just loop it like an extension cord and hold in place with a cable cuff or Velcro strip

That's a great pic!

Boiling up the haggis, I cook the turnips in the same pot, a good many wee heavies were already in me at this point.
