Hi All... Looking for a simple response based on my love of brewing all grain IPAs vs. my water report. I have a salt based water softener in my house. If I bypass the water softener, which I understand is detremental, here's what my brewing water would look like. I could use the guidance...

Easy drinking with lots of yeast character. The typical banana cloves spice and whatnot. A solid Trappist ale. Not sure I would buy it regularly but it's very good.

Just bought a 4-pack of the Spencer beer @ the store near my office. Going to sample it tonight. Pricey, that's for sure.

Generally speaking I'd recommend checking the alchemist's website. They list the stores that carry them and what does they get their inventory. Then you just need to be quick about getting over there. Burlington, Waterbury and Stowe seem to get the bulk of it.

Anybody else interested pm me.

Possibly what's your trade?

This should hold me over till Monday.

I'm no expert on what beers are best to age, but I'm using my best judgement and stashing beer away in the 200 year old part of my basement that is cool and cave-like year round. Am I on the right track? Bell's Expedition Stout 2010 Bell's North Coast Ole Ale 2010 Uinta Anniversary Ale 2010...

This thread is just further evidence that beer, much like music and art and a lot of other things... Is 100% subjective. Subjective based on your taste buds but also a complicated mix of other things you've picked up along the way that can't possibly be duplicated from one person to the next...

I do have condensation coming down that line on the outside of the unit. So it's not plugged. It's the inside I'm concerned about. No leaks at the coupler far as I can see.

Bought an older Bev Air kegerator and got it hooked up and runs great. Don't see any leaks when I spray with star-san but there is some liquid this morning on the floor of the kegerator. Might be coming down from the tower, which is insulated with a blower moving cold air up there, but not sure...

Had one of those last night too and saw the same thing but more along the lines of what I find in home brew. This heady sediment was thick the pix don't do it justice.

I don't think I am ok with a mouthful of protein clumps. I drink to forget things like this...

First off I want to say that I love Heady Topper. Truly one of the best beers I've had. Not as exciting as when man first walked on the moon but really it's a fantastic beer. But CHRIST it's an ugly beer if you don't drink it right away. Ok so it says right there front and center on the...

This post reminds me of a video they showed us in health class when I was in 7th grade, highlighting the dangers of marijuana. A very emotional girl told a sad story about her first time smoking the pot. She woke up in the middle of the night and had a thought that blew her mind. It was like a...

Check valve(s) for correct operation. These valves keep exhaust gases from entering and harming the smog pump. Disconnect the valve from the outlet hose and manifold air pipe/hose. Blow through the valve then try to suck air back through the check valve. If the valve is good air flow should be...

No I'm not referring to that sick fantasy you've always had. Christ!!! Who has a spot on, tried and true, "Holy shoot I freaking nailed it" clone of a great commercial beer? Post the recipe. Really though... Only if you freaking nailed it. zc

Walmart all the way. Got their cheapest turkey fryer setup. Think it was $50 and want to say brand was Bayou Classic. I don't use the cheap aluminum pot that came with it for brewing but the burner gets the job done. So far it's lasted about 5 years of brewing and boiling maple sap for hours on...
