A friendly place for friends who drink

[Qhrumphf]

Was never wild about shellfish. Crab, lobster, etc. I guess that works that my wife doesn't eat shellfish either.

Love me some shellfish, unfortunately CO is not a hotbed of good, fresh seafood. Rocky Mt oysters are not seafood.

Took tomorrow off work to ski one more day. This is pretty tasty.

I love shellfish, but hate fish. Love catching them though. Not feeling like going to work in the morning, but the kids are off all week so there's some motivation to get up and out hahaha

 

[1977Brewer]

Steak Toaster. Might be my only one tonight.

But we know it won't be.

See, I love fish, but don't like shellfish. Won't say I HATE shellfish, but never something I'll seek out, and I suppose if you include shrimp I'm generally ok with shrimp.

Also I found Dar's teleprompter: http://www.brewchase.com/

Chortle.

The food pairings are worth the price of admission.

Sea roaches, all of 'em. No thanks. Those that like it can have all of mine.



So, I got my mash going about 30 minutes ago. 2.75G of water in a 4G pot with 7.5 pounds of grain is right about the maximum I can get in there. I can stir it, but have to be careful or it will slop over the side. Another quart of water & I couldn't touch it without spilling. Heh.

Oh yeah, just got back from the store, because brewing beer = drinking beer. Found a mauraded sixer of Sculpin (NEVER seen that at this store before) so one went into my mix-six pack. I guess pics of beers tonight, anyway. But later.

 

[1977Brewer]

Flipping fantastic.

Decided to set up something a little more her speed, she's kicking my ass currently. Lol.

Back in the day, my wife would rig the cards so you never went backwards.

Back in the day, my wife would rig the cards so you never went backwards.

We would split into two piles, one for the kids, and one for the adults. Kids pile had all the double colors and the 'bonus' spaces (gumdrop, candy cane, etc), stacked so they couldn't go backwards. I think they figured it out when they were four or so.
Don't know why, but I hated candy land. I could play every other stupid kids game with them, but candy land was a race to get done as fast as possible.

Here's my impersonation of Dar.

It has the nose of an eviscerated tauntaun, but maybe a little more...clove. Tastes as if you licked a wet moose after the rut, with a hint of mango.

Actually, I can't taste much of anything after the coffee beer, but I'm still awake, and beer must be drunk.

Just now getting to that one? Don't ask @disturbdchemist to opine. I don't think he cared for the bee balm....or Jester King.

Steak Toaster. Holy Grail is on PBS. Guess I'm staying up a bit.

Yeah, I'm slowly making progress on the cellar. It's definitely an odd flavored beer. Not bad, but not good either.

I'd drink more JK if DC would just suck it up and stand in line like all the hipsters do.

Having a HB mosaic iPa while making a yeast starter. Have any of you fine folks had the privilege on enjoying a hill farmstead Arthur? Wondering what the hop profile was like. Can't seem to find it online. I was guessing citra from what I read online.
