I enjoyed it. Look forward to future videos.

Got a link to the recipe? That amber ale looked tasty.

The Amber Ale is the Autumn Amber Ale kit from Midwest Supplies.

Yup it's done and long gone drank (took some time though!).

If you go to page 6 of the thread and scroll towards the middle, I put up the other video of me actually reviewing the beer.

I had to ask one of my nerdy friends the other day too, so I'll share my findings:
Meme= (pronounced meem with the long-e sound) is defined as a cultural item that is transmitted by repetition in a manner analogous to the biological transmission of genes. From the Greek word meaning "to copy."

Love the video. I've shared it several times on this forum to new brewers!

Nice job. The best compliment I can give is that I watched it to the end. I don't watch very many videos online. And rarely do I watch them to the end. Definitely entertaining.

On a side note, I already spoke with ahem .. SWMBO and expressed interest in a trelis and a hop vine. We bought our house two years ago and have done lots of landscaping and plant work, right now we are out there every weekend wedding, tending my herb garden and such, and I told her I want a hop vine. We have lots of room, I just want to make sure it doesn't crawl on my neighbors fencing or anything else.

Not unfamiliar with them, but they are invasive and you have to be careful. We planted a trumpet vine in our old place and the thing went nuts. I am having visions of hop vine Citra, Amarillo and fresh hop beer... drooling just thinking about it.

Plus one woman I know wants me to make a pumpkin beer (I don't like pumpkin ale) and I totally told her I will make her one in October. Plus I need to make something peach/fruit oriented cause my wife loves peaches and we get great ones in season at our farmers market. She loves plenty of other styles (mostly lambic) but that would be much easier to go with.

There are no limits now, I already got an interesting peach/fruit beer idea, but baby steps...

Hops is not exactly invasive because it doesn't spread by seed only by rhizomes. If you plant it near the neighbors fence it will climb it otherwise it will have to crawl there- you can prune it. Unfortunately Citra and Amarillo are proprietary cultivars and you cannot get rhizomes- maybe, hopefully in a few years... I really want Simcoe. There are many great varieties that you can grow- definitely recommend it especially if you already have basic gardening knowledge. There is a lot of info on growing/ harvesting/ drying here on the forums.

Pumpkin beer is great and I find in most beers it is the (overused) spices I don't like though I can't speak for you. Really any winter squash will work; if you have a favorite use that.

I enjoyed your first video though I think mine is one generation before the meme's; I will be watching the review shortly. I can relate to your concern during fermentation. Nice work.
