I put corn in my beer.

Well... then you're not in the club.

Edit: It's okay as long as you don't call it a light American lager.

 

[Kplum]

That video gave me chill bumps.. Made me proud to be a homebrewer.. Makes me want to push through on some recipes that might not work..

Belgian Pale with 77.4 IBU's.. Thats what makes us unique..

 

[Brewsmith]

Great job guys, that is fantastic. I love how the video shows how diverse eveyone's setup and beer is. The simple stove top to a complete brew system. Well done.

:rockin:

 

[humann_brewing]

Here I am using some hops and grain for props. I am really regretting wearing my home made t-shirt for this video. Anyways, that is why I picked this shot.

 

[Gremlyn]

This was awesome guys, way to go!

 

[MBasile]

GREAT video guys! It's great to be part of a hobby that so many people are so passionate about.

 

[Gremlyn]

Facebook group started for the video's awesomeness:
I Am a Home Brewer | Facebook

 

[Kelsch]

Representing my alma mater, where I learned to drink great beer (and lots of it). :cross:

 

[chumprock]

Well spoken Kelsch! A Communications major by chance?

 

[ohiobrewtus]

Well done, mates!

In hindsight, I should have participated in this.

Well, you know what they say about hindsight and all.

Ditto. If I thought it was ever actually going to get finished, I probably would have. I should have known that olllllo would crack the whip though.

 

[Boerderij_Kabouter]

This is me sitting by my basement brewery in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Well done everyone!

 

[chumprock]

Your jacket sets the bar, you know.

The rest of us are horribly under-dressed.
(Except for humann_brewing's custom tailoring!)

 

[Boerderij_Kabouter]

The sport coat is the modern day suit of armor. Never leave home without one.

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Fantastic job guys!!!

Like many others on viewing this, a tear ran down my cheek. Then when I saw olllllo, a tear ran down my leg.

Awesome!! This video is going places!!

 

[Kelsch]

Well spoken Kelsch! A Communications major by chance?

Nope, I wasn't a hockey player. Civil engineering '04.

 

[Catt22]

I put corn in my beer.

Me too! Classic American Pilsner lives on!

The video desperately needs some better looking people in it. A few hot scantily clad girls would really help.

No bongs in the background anywhere? What's up with that?

 

[ottobrew]

Excellent job guys. Awesome video.

 

[beerkrump]

Cheers!

 

[chumprock]

If you twitter, post the video and ask all your friends to re-tweet!

Well, I guess I'll piss on the parade...

The Brewing Network totally flamed it.

Where? I can't find the exact page.

 

[MikeRLynch]

On the show itself. The link is to the episode.

It sucks that something I like (the BN) would diss something else I like (HBT).

Opinions are like ********

 

[Sigafoos]

Was the criticism that it was overly dramatic? (it's what I saw someone on the BN forums say). Because... yeah? So was IAACB (I actually wasn't a huge fan of the original). Can someone transcribe/paraphrase for those of us at work?

I sent along a reminder (as he requested) to James at BBR, so we should hopefully get a shoutout on the next episode. In doing so, I came up with some stats: 22 brewers from 13 states (with two nonresponding) were a part of this video. Damn.

I'll get a shot of me when I'm on my laptop later today.

Edit: Oh, and I know chumprock saw this already, but the people olllllo mentioned in his comment on the Examiner article caught the eye of the guy who wrote Red White and Brew. He's been pointed to this thread and I said I really only stood there and looked pretty (a lie in itself); I have no problem (and would be quite happy) promoting this thing wherever I can, but I don't want it to seem like I'm swooping in and hogging the spotlight.

 

[chumprock]

That's cool, I dont like their shows anyway.. *shrug*

I was going to listen for the jab, but I couldnt get past their lame morning show slam on World of Warcraft.

Do some of you people actually listen to this stuff?

Never listened to the Sunday Session before. Before I brew a new style I will listen to the Jamil Show and listen to his thoughts on the style. I actually do enjoy that show. I've listened to a few episodes of Brew Strong.

The Brewing Network totally flamed it.

WOW!!! They are feeling threatened for some reason! They think they own homebrew?

Missed point ********! According to them, you are only allowed to brew at home if you have a hop grenade T shirt.

Despite what that channel could teach me, I am ditching it. Fook them. They are pathetic.

 

[user 38649]

Their cynicism went a little over the top for my taste. I think their problem was more with the delivery and not the message. whatever. Diff'rnt strokes diff'rnt folks. For the most part I really like their show and have learned a lot as a new brewer. They do pull in a lot of good interviews.

Could you let us know around what minute mark it falls at? I downloaded the episode and started to listen, but gave up after I realized they'd managed to spend 20 minutes yapping and hadn't said anything interesting or insightful about beer.

+1 to this, I don't feel like wasting all that time and just want to waste the time listening to them trash talk us
