Craft Beer MAW(Easy Version)

[BigPerm]

@beermeduffman this is an amazing grant. I apologize for the bad pictures. By the time I stumbled home last night I had completely forgot about checking for these, so I ripped them open and snapped some quick pictures this morning. It was so hard to leave for work after digging through these...

I was probably a little more excited than I should've been for the Death Star ice cube mold. Wife just rolled her eyes and walked away as I threw my hands in the air like a child. Whatever. She's just jealous.

I almost instinctively opened the Hopgasm right there at 7am. If it was cold, it probably would've just happened. Can't wait to try that.

I actually feel bad about these man... I never expected or deserved anything like this.

@psylocide - Look at me.. I am d'Captain now.

Thanks so much man. If there's ever anything you want/need from my side of town, don't hesitate to hit me up. Especially if you're passing through, beer & wings on me.

Damn! @BeerMeDuffMan FTW! Nice Hit! Love this thread.

F the Hopslam. My eye went immediately to the Abyss, which is excellent IMO. I had a 2009 reserve last year.

Yeah sorry. I don't know anything about half the stuff I was looking at. This was definitely an educational box. The DFH 120's are 2010 and 2015 I think. Everything he sent has a reason behind it.

Send it to me I need a waxed bottle to test my new wax cutter design on the openers......

I have many waxed bottles I need to open. Send the opener to me and I'll test it for you....

I want to open a few more to test this design and then I will be sending some out.

The only problem is that we had 1 waxed bottle in our distro and it was a limited release.

You could always wax up some random bottles and try it. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=127485

If you double-dip you will get a thicker wax that will be harder than most commercial waxing to cut through. Only thing harder was the Terrapin french toast W-n-B. That thing needed a hammer and chisel to come off.

That is what I am leaning towards, the kids have hundreds of crayons that need to be recycled. Now I just to find time to do it.

Aye, it help find reasoning to cellaring stuff. Trying to sway to the expensive side of beer drinking

I need to figure out the ideal temp to keep them then. I keep our house cool, but our basement is dry too. Guess I need to build some shelving. So excited, thanks again.

Keep it in the basement and out of the sunlight, if at the least.

Just so you know, focal banger is restaurant only. No retail sales.

Well, since I managed to slow this down I will keep it simple.

Your local Brett, farmhouse ales, IPAs, DIPA's and pale ales
