I will crack mine open tomorrow when I shed this diet for 3 weeks. Xmass and festbeir/Oktoberfest are some of my favorites. Typically I associate a winter warmer with a higher abv spiced ale or even a stout or porter that has hit the barrel of spirit for a bit to add a boozeyness to it...

Heading out to continue the cleaning of the garage.  Taking a wee nip of barrel proof whiskey to keep me warm.

I personally don't use that much wheat in mine, but I can see upping it to counter the darker malts. If you want color without too much roasted flavor you can also just throw the chocolate rye in at the last 10 min or so of the mash to pull out color but less flavor.

Here in Columbus there are few places (my wife's favorite included) where I would prefer the box to what is in it....

If I remember correctly he had lost the room and there was drama. He had an abrupt reality check getting shipped off and struggling in other cities. He has probably grown as person and is better for it. Why Cleveland went for Watson will be a question that can only be answered by the ownership...

Most guaranteed $$$ in the NFL. The Browns were morons to pursue him in the first place, and to sign that contract was truly an unprecedented mistake that I am not sure anyone thought would pan out at all. Only the Brown and Carolina management make the Bears look like they are half...

Very true. I would still be surprised to see it get passed any time soon.

Layaway! @day_trippr you missed the chance to say that we are "dieing to find out".

Make no doubt about it, the reason government prohibits private distillation (moonshin'in) is not to protect us from methanol poisoning, it is for tax revenue. If we all were able legally distill for "own consumption" there would be a huge loss in tax revenue. I don't suspect that is going to...

Anyone cold smoked a brisket for a few hours and then cook in the oven or sous vide? Jones'in for some brisket this weekend and we are looking at highs in the 40's. Seems like a great temp to fill the pellet tube and let it puff away for 4-6 hours and throw it in the oven. Even thinking that I...

I believe I may have used that line on an ex-girlfriend (or maybe their freinds) a time or two in my youth...

At 1 point last weekend the Bears had more punts (5) than total yards of offense (4). Great decision to draft the QB and not trade the pick for 3-4 other picks that could helped in other places. Like I don't know, some offensive linemen....

Bah! Count me in.

I let my subscription lapse shortly after the boys were born and my free time got allocated to keeping up with them. They are more self-sufficient and I have been able to start brewing again. I was actually was looking at a few old copies last night and thinking of renewing. Personally digital...

Late to the party but Cranium is fun and trivial pursuit are 2 of our favorites.

I never had a doubt you would come through!

What a waste of duct tape. Plus it is not fun for the dogs if the cats can't at least try to run away...

Thanks! Not going to lie, I do not enjoy it, but it has been effective along a little cardio in dropping 30+ prior to turkey day. Plan now is 3 weeks back on before xmass and then back at it again in the new year. Just in time to test the carb level on the x-mass ale going into bottles tonight.

Can you imagine that guy opening up for the St. Patty's bash @ 5 am?

Back on the Keto today so the drink of choice is water. Living vicariously through you all and imaging the xmass ale waiting for me on the other side...
