I keep thinking about getting back into brewing again. This method appeals to me as I don't have to rebuy as much equipment, and I can shave time off my brewday.

There have been dry villages in AK for years. They all have different levels of bans. Alcoholism is a big problem in small remote communites and while I disagree with the methods tribal governments are trying to combat it. The larger populations centers do not have these restrictions, it...

Nope, not yet anyway. I haven't brewed in a couple of years (sort of miss it, but just don't have time). But still drinking it. :D

Glad to hear you made it through and are doing better. Here's to many more good years of brewing, drinking and being a part of the HBT community. :mug::mug::mug::mug:

Best of Luck Revvy.

I feel bad because I haven't really made it over there since it opened. The one day I stopped in they were still closed, but I did sample one of the first batches of the Big Lebrewski. I keep hoping he will be able to start bottling and distributing soon.

This is a really good website on aging. Unfortunately the guy just stopped updating it out of the blue, don't know if something happened to him or not. Lots of data, sources, etc... on aging. http://www.brewbasement.com/

Nothing right now, but I've had a few Hales Irish Style Nut Brown Ales over the last week. If you can find it, I suggest trying it. A very nice brown.

Best of luck Revvy, hope all goes smooth. Sounds very similar to what my grandfather had done years ago with the pigs valve, and then a more recent surgery after several years. He is in his mid 70's and doing fine.

The ancients didn't invent beer, Momma invented Beer!

A dark, heavy beer with a unique Belgian Ale taste. When you open it up it almost smells like sour apples. The taste though, maybe like a porter but with the Belgian character? Hard to describe now, as I didn't do a review as I was drinking it. It was good, but needless to say polishing...

Yeah, I'm druck, but starting to catch on. Good call.

Did you read my post? All it would take is for some uppity mom or dad of a teenager to find out they were hanging out here. They could cause plenty of trouble for the owner of the site. It's not worth it for them, they are better off taking a hard stance and avoiding any potential legal issues.

Missed this thread. That's what I get for not spending enough time here. I'll have to search for it on Direct TV and record the next episode.

I don't brew anymore, but still drink it. I go through phases. Kind of like being a pregnant beer drinker. Sometimes I get an IPA kick, and other times I don't drink them for awhile. Right now in the winter, I tend to like more darker ales like porters, stouts, and browns. Right now, I'm...

I've already hit the report post button. Yuri is hanging around, but as previously stated "probably getting his (legal) drink on.

Search around the forum for some posts by Brewtopia about barrel aged beers.

Ahh, I haven't been around in awhile, but some things never change. Personally I think we all violate some laws but probably shouldn't advertise it on the internet. Enjoy the beer, what you do with the keg afterward is something we don't need to know. It's wrong, you know it. (Not saying...

Really? Are you comparing the forum to Nazi's? Think about it from the perspective of the company that runs this place? You start posting about underage drinking/brewing and then more underage people start to hear about the place. Some parent gets wind of this and starts a fuss. Get a...

I haven't done much with aging lately. Last fall I did finish off my last 2008 Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine. Pretty good after a year and a half. I have also had a two or three year old barleywine at a bar once, pretty damn good.
