    Commercial IPAs

    The IPA was my first love but it seems everyone and their mother brews them now and not many out there are worth mentioning. Sadly, the Fridays around here stopped carrying HopDevil and replaced it with Harpoon:( So I guess in my travels, here are some IPAs I am rather fond of: Stone IPA (both...

    :( Sorry to hear man. I've lost a few little fuzzy buddies in my time as well. It's very sad to see them go.

    What are you drinking now?

    Local liquor store is big on the craft brew scene and just got a shipment of the Abacus in today, I'm hoping to get another bottle to stick in the cellar. After filling a growler of the Double Jack I became an instant fan. I'll be sure to let you know how the Abacus is :mug:

    Cheap & Easy 10 Gallon Rubbermaid MLT Conversion

    The only stainless steel supply hose I was able to find was a 3/8ths x 1/2in FIP 12" hose. I want to make sure if this will work or not before I go ahead and cut it.

    Imperial IPA critique

    Wow, interesting, the idea of wort hopping didnt occur to me. If I understand the concept of FWH correctly, I'd be adding the 2oz of Chinook to the kettle before sparging but after the vorlauf? Also, your suggestion yielded an IBU of 152.7. That is rather hoppy indeed. I think its time to...

    Imperial IPA critique

    I originally had the FG at 1.020 however when I saved the recipe and went back I noticed it had changed slightly, the ABV went down slightly and the FG raised a little. I've been making minor changes here and there to try and get it back down. When I do this for real (not on paper) I had planned...

    Imperial IPA critique

    :drunk: Looks like I brain farted when doing my hop section. I couldn't decide on an aroma hop so apparently I just didn't put any in altogether. I removed the Northern Dryhop which i just tossed into the beer calculator while messing around with the recipe. I took you up on your suggestioin for...

    Imperial IPA critique

    Hey all, I've just finished my 2nd extract brew and have been looking into going All-Grain within the next few months. I figure now would be a good time to familiarize myself with the ingredients and try my hand at making a recipe. Here's what I came up for an Imperial IPA. Any input would be...

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    Unibroue's Quelque Chose. It tastes like regurgitated cherry cough syrup. It was so bad I actually felt GOOD pouring 21ozs into my sink. Edit: Story behind it? Not much of one. My brother had a few 22s of various Unibroues in his house and pawned a few off on me. Took 2 sips of this and said...

    Do the washers have to be fender washers? The guy I work with managed to get 5/8ths SS Washers (http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/detail.ex?sku=1171025&ucst=t) from Fastenal but they weren't the fender washers.

    Hey from New Jersey

    Well the FG was on target tonite so I racked her to the secondary, other than a few small bumps in the road and the airlock blowing off after I cellared the carboy it all went pretty smoothly. It even tastes pretty decent!:tank:
