Rip

 

[MonkHeDo]

The crash scared the crap out of my 16-month old baby girl too. So we had a good cry together.

 

[annasdadhockey]

Hopefully you didn't get hurt.

 

[MonkHeDo]

No, I always wear shoes to bottle cause I'm on my feet so much and I need the support.

 

[Stevo2569]

Depends, were they Sam Adams or your own?

 

[MonkHeDo]

They were my own. My first IPA, AND the first all-grain batch where I hit all my numbers. Thankfully I only lost 6. This is gonna be a tasty one.

Can using a blender on your grain, affect the outcome of your carbination?

No, it is a picture of some Marines shooting at Sam Adams bottles.

Feel for ya dude, I dropped a full 5 gal carboy on the way to my basement

 

[EdWort]

Bummer.

OK, how did it happen?

 

[MonkHeDo]

Bummer.

Well, I keep my bottles in old 12-pack boxes (as you can see) in the furnace/water heater room downstairs. My water heater bit the dust this past Sunday and flooded that room, which weakened the bottom of the box. So when I picked them up the bottom fell out; all 12 bottles hit the tile floor, but only six broke.

 

[Elweydoloco]

Yeah you know what else sucks!!!

That was seven! 4 Apocalypso (which are amazing) and three Double Chocolate Stout (which need a little more aging)

This was after I told my buddy make sure you're careful when you open that door I heard the beer slide over.

So I proceed to open that door and crash!!!!!!!!!!

I feel ya dude. It's such a soul-crushing feeling, more so I guess because we make it with our own hands.

Wow!

You need to go and reinforce all your beer boxes with good packing tape now.

Chock it up to a learning experience.

Gee that picture looks familiar, except the beer was darker ... I lost 5 bottles of irish stout when a 6pack holder gave out.

 

[BrewerinBR]

So sad.... good no one was hurt... broken glass vs. me...
Glass = 1 ... me bleed
I use crates to transport and store bottles.... paper and cardboard just are not trust worthy
