    OK To Drink?

    No I have had no side effects. I drank 3 pints the other night and at least 1 pint since and no runs. On the package it just says cleaner. Not sure the brand. Possibly B-Brite Cleaner I just looked at the LHS website and this is the only one that sounds like the description of mine.

    Next brew recomendation

    Thanks I am new to Home Brewing as well and had to look up "BMC" as thats what i was, even worse sometimes, but since i have been trying new beers to save up bottles without screw off tops i have found a new liking, better beer. I am thinking maybe a Real Ale or Leinenkugel clone from AHS.

    Next brew recomendation

    I would also like some advice on this I am bottling a Texas Blonde Ale this weekend that I used a Mini-Mash from AHS and so far it looks good and was simple to make. I am interested in an Amber or English Ale for my next brew. Thanks.
