Well I decided last night that I wanted to brew a Wee Heavy on Leap Day, age it for 4 years and enjoy in next leap year. I'm still brewing this (boiling now) and will post more pictures later. Pre-boil SG 1.074 (adjusted for temp) I'll also post the recipe in the recipe section later.

Driving home from taking my son shopping for lacrosse gear I see a glimmer in the distance. I drive closer to make sure mine eyes are not deceiving me. Holy Mother Mary of Grace!!!! Yes, it is happening! Praise be to the Lord! So has anyone else seen anything like this near them?

Ok I'm trying this again. Last time the guy I traded with received his package, but I never got mine. I'm looking for RUSSIAN RIVER pliny the elder, blind pig, beatification, temptation, and possibly some other sours/belgians. I have 120 min ipa, pearl jam 20th anniversary ale, hell hound...

So is anyone else excited about Faithful Ale being released tomorrow. I'm all $hit$ and Giggles over here :) http://www.dogfish.com/community/news/press-releases/faithfull-ale-release-plans.htm

Okay - I posted before with no luck. Dogfish has released more 120min and I have 2 4 packs I like to trade for some russian river brews. I also have other DFH beers for trade which I'll list below, and what I have at my home. 120 min IPA - 2 4packs HellHound - 3 750ml bottles Squall IPA - 3...

I have a lot of DFH Hellhound on my ale, squall IPA, and can get 120 (it's $30 a 4 pack) I'm looking to trade for some Russian River Pliny Elder/Younger, Blind Pig, any of their Belgians. PM me to let me know

OK so I've ran into a block on brewing ideals :confused: and am reaching out to the fellow homebrewers for some input. BTW I do not have laggering capabilities at this point. What would you brew? Grain Inventory: 55lbs French Pilsner 55lbs American 2 row 40lbs White Weat malt 45lbs...

I love using New Zeland hops in my brews but they are increasingly harder to find in bulk/semi-bulk quantities. :confused: Does anyone else feel my pain, anger and frustration? I'm just not going to buy hops in 1oz portions and get bent over the barrel paying for them. :mad:

So has anyone used White Labs limited San Diego Super yeast yet? I've got 2 tubes on the way and was thinking about doing a IIIPA, a Hefty RIS, or maybe a barley wine. Just wanted to know if anyone has used it as of yet. :mug:

So does Orval or saison dupont have or use bugs in their fermentation process ? I have a bottle of each and can culture a nice starter to pitch into a triple to get some nice funk like Orval has.

Well it has finally happened, Sparkler the 14 year old mutt who has been a great dog has to be put down. Sparks was my wifes dog who had him since he was a puppy and who moved in with us when we got married. I loathed the dog ever since the 1st time I met him, but I do have to say that he has...

I'm in desperate need of some belgian bottles. I have 10 gallons that need to be bottled yesterday and I can't drink the belgians quick enough to make for more bottles. I drink about 2 store bought belgians a night and it's killing my wallet. I'm willing to trade 1-2 ball lock kegs for some...

OK, here's the deal. The local brew club sponsored by Dogfish Head is having a mad brewers competition. DFH is providing a yeast strain that they use but not telling the competitors what it is, and the competitors have to brew a beer and have it turned in by May 13, 2011. Sam and the brewmasters...
