Blew the Porter and the Brown today! Nothing left except Pig Whistle Red and Cider (too hot for barleywine). I'll have to make a trip to the local tomorrow and, heat or no, brew Sunday. Picked up a new landscaping toy Thursday and didn't get to the local.

Have you been to Jasper Murdocks? Nice beers, in nice glassses, I'm partial to the slippery eel myself.
I met the owner and brewer Tim Wilson a couple weeks ago. He showed me around the brewhouse and took me down to the cellar where he keeps the beer tanks. We proceeded to try his different ales and talk about beer. It was a sublime experience. He's a really great down to earth guy. And geeky me, I asked him to sign my beer captured book that has the WPA clone recipe.

Cool, I haven't been in Vermont since Ben & Jerry were independent (about 1992), still have a jar of maple sugar, but I suspect it's a rock. Brewery tours are great. I've been through Widmer's with their 250 barrel mash tuns and 1000 barrel fermenters to Dave Will's 4 barrel system at Oregon Trails. Dave's was more fun. I helped him muck out the fermenter.
I know the feeling. Nothing but a so-so bottled apricot for the wife that she doesn't like and two in the works. Large parties of 65 people can suck down 5 kegs as if it's water. need to brew two-three more over the next two weeks to get back into two on tap & two waiting in the wings!

I must say I find it interesting that even though you live across the country and of all the interesting beers out there you decided to do a batch based on Tim's. A small brewery that only brews about 200 bb a year. There's something poetic about that in a way. I mentioned to him that in this forum there are people such as yourself that post in their sig lines his ale and he just smiled!
