    Beer Gods

    Have I ever mentioned how much I love beer? I really, really do. I found a list of Beer Gods and I figure, out of that list, I'm going to become a worshipper of Ninkasi, cause not only do I get beer but she also has the power to satisfy human desire. Seems like a win/win to me. Now I just need...

    .....and so it begins....

    The Dream - To have beer on tap at home I've begun the process of making a kegerator, which to some of you may seem like no big deal. To me though this is going to be a major accomplishment....lol. I'm not exactly what you'd call handy, and up until just a few short years ago had never...

    300,000 Beers Destroyed in a Fire!

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/offbeat/story/2012/06/29/nb-listiguj-beer-fire.html I was heartbroken at this news.......until I saw the picture; Bud, Bud Light, Coors, Coors Light. Now I'm thinking this was an act of a loving and beneficent god. :D

    Flat Beer, help!

    So after waiting 3 months to try my 2nd try at Partial Extract Brewing, my beer is flat. I'm pretty sure I didn't add enough priming sugar when I bottled it and now I'm not sure what to do. I'd really like to "rescue" this beer if possible. Is there anyway to "add" more carbonation to this beer...

    My First Attempt at a Partial Mash

    Well, made my first attempt at a partial mash this weekend. Went better than expected but I did have a few problems. I had two boil overs, holy crap, does that ever happen quickly. One second it's all good the next there is beer going everywhere. Need to pick up a spray bottle so I can better...

    Personal Website?

    Hey There, Anyone here have their own website, not necessarily brew related but it could be. A place on the interweeb that you call home? Here is mine - Shiftless Bum Mine is about various backpacking adventures I've had here in British Columbia. I've been lazy lately and haven't...

    Vancover, BC (Lower Mainland) Meet and Greet - April 17 or 18?

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone on here would be up for a Pub Night? Kind of a meet and greet of local homebrewers. I was thinking maybe we could meet at a pub downtown somewhere. It's "neutral" ground, transit options would be good, and it's more or less central. I've added people as...

    Olympic Rally - Redneck Style

    Some friends and I got together and had our own version of an Olympic Rally. Thought some of you may get a kick out of this. Just to assure you, yes we were drinking heavily during the making of this video. :fro:

    I'm drinking green beer

    I admit it, I'm drinking green beer cause I just couldn't wait to taste it. Both beers were made using kits provided by The Brewhouse (The brew house). The Red Ale is drinkable but kind of boring, definitely needs some more time conditioning in the bottle. It was only bottled a week ago, so...

    ShiftlessBum IPA - Maybe or Maybe Not?

    Hi There, This is my first attempt at trying to make my own recipe. How bad do you think this would taste? Any suggestions? I ran it through Beer Smith, but since I'm too stupid/lazy to understand what everything means, maybe someone here would be kind enough to warn me off if this is a...
