A friendly place for friends who drink

[WesleyS]

Just bmc schit

Oh, yes. Now that you mention it I have heard of ABInbevenridge brewery. I was way off on the name in my previous post.

better get used to it Siebel boy.

some photo's from the tour at Breck's new place. It's huge. All German equipment. One of the cool things is in one of the pictures. The city and neighbors were worried about the smell, so they installed a condenser to capture the steam / water vapor and most of the smell from the boil kettles. They take the hot water that it produces and reuse for wash / rinse in other places in the brewery. They viewed it as additional cost to keep the city happy and be a good neighbor, but has likely already paid for itself due to water reuse.

Todd, who is the President of Breck, said they have never worried about carbonation shipping to lower elevations or when they were in Breckenridge (the town - elevation over 9000 feet). They send 2 trucks of Breck to TX every week and no one complains about carb levels, so not gonna start worrying now. He said he could see an issue if it was shipping growlers or other packaging that was not pressurized all the way until the final package (bottle, can, etc) closed, but wouldn't think there should be an issue with a good canning / bottling process.

drinking second pour of the funkwerks. go back a page if you want a pic.

Cool pics. Damn liberals do not like the smell of the brewery.
common its magical

this one cost a little more. They weren't sure exact cost, but it was north of $100k. it is a 100 barrel system. They did the math when they were constructing it. If all the fermenters are full, its over 1 million, but not quite 2 million bottle of beer.

other news that Wes wont read, is they are going to be doing 16oz nitro cans of Vanilla Porter and Lucky U in the near future.

That imbev money already at work

Fever and the nightmares they bring are no fun for a 3 yr old. Could be a long night.

They're no fun for the adults watching over them either. Last 3 nights she got up in the middle of the night. Hope your kid gets better quick. Daughter hasn't gotten up yet, and her temp was finally down to normal this afternoon. Hopefully she'll be back to normal in the morning.

Thanks mate. Same to you and your little one.

I will say that the vanilla porter is good. Not a fan of much else though except the BA 72.

Didn't you follow the thread today. They were worried that the brewery would over-power the ganja smell that all us Coloradans have grown to love and promote over the past year

I'm not gonna defend the sale. They made a business decision and have to live with the consequences, good and bad, but they had the new place all designed and permitted before AB came into the picture.

Pretty drinkable at six something percent.

First time having one a Iron Horse Plead the 5th. I didn't expect this amount of heat for a 11% brew.

I still haven't dug into the bottles you gave me awhile back. I gotta remember what they all are. I know WTF. But what was the PS?

Pumpkin Ale fermented with WY3711. I'd sit on those others for quite a while. the PS is ready now, but it's over carbonated.

Water. I'm sure the snow hype machine will be kicked to a whole new level today. Good thing it's hitting over the weekend so I can drink beer while and after shoveling.

Ahhhhh I don't miss overnight shifts-used to have a job that I would work 4, 10 hr shifts from 9pm to 7am then have three days off then I would come back and work 3, 10 hr shifts from 9pm to 7am and then have four days off then come back and work 7 from 7am to 5pm. Then some other crazy afternoon shifts and then repeat. It kept my body pretty messed up.

Milk with breakfast. Turkey, bell pepper, and onion breakfast burrito with hash.

Same thing. It is 2%.

And just like with a mild, you might as well just be drinking water.

When I was in my bulking phase, I used to drink half and half to get my calories up, and got a lot of my daily fat intake from that.

Kind of ruined milk for me though, whole even tastes a little watery.

Fecking sick is sticking around, but much less intense this morning. We'll see if I make it through the day.

Drinking a percentage of cow mucus is the topic this morning huh? No thanks. You guys done being sick and cranky yet? Got up early, shoveled, salted driveway and played with the puppy in the snow. Coffee and drawerangs.

Why don't you go draw something. No one asked for anything out of you.

That's crazy.

Also, no.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Coffee. Tired, and only paperwork to do today... this is gonna be a long day

Wow. Bossy this morning. Anything ELSE I can do for you today?

You don't drink milk?

I never said that. I just like to call it cow mucus.. or baby booze. Do love some Silk now and then though.
