Yes agree, I am sure they are very efficient in their processing for yielding large amounts of beer at a lower cost. Craft beer steps away from that model and focuses beer quality. I am no beer snob and enjoy a nice cold Bud on a hot summer day. Roger that on the American Light Lager.

The pressure to put product on the shelf at cost leads to short cuts and BMC brewing techniques. I wouldn't get too excited.

And buy a false bottom, you won't regret.

here is an idea. Throw some jalapenos in the late boil and dry hop with cilantro. You might be onto something.

I try hard not to be that guy. Seems like every hipster with a beard and knit cap are "hop experts" now. If I have questions I will try to have a quiet one on one with the brewer. There is one place I enjoy going to occasionally where they know I home brew, and I bring my beer in for them to...

This is what I had used for years, gets the job done even with big beers. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WW8Q6DI/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

Is the crush any different?

I like PBR :)

Happy Birthday my friend!

Go commando, let the hops be free to dance and play.
