Its a good time. Take the next 364 days to PRACTICE! Its long!

 

[ComcastWineRookie]

I have watched this, it looks fun, but its a bitch

 

[the_bird]

Hey Dakota! Your help is desperately needed!

Someone just bought 20+ pounds of a (German) crystal malt! What to do?!?!

 

[DakotaRules]

Nice! I tried the stout the other day and it's decent but not great. Better luck next time. I still got 20 lbs.

 

[paulthenurse]

That's almost enough for a five gallon batch, right?

 

[DakotaRules]

Yes Paul it is.

 

[the_bird]

Did y'all hear that Petey's looking to pitch again, and would love to come back to Boston?

Why the hell not? He can't be any worse than Dice-K. I'd trust him to go out and pitch five good innings every week over "Batting Practice" Matsuzaka.

How much friggin' fun would that be?

 

[redliner]

Here we go bruins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


BTW Montreal blows big time balls!!!!!!!!!

gonna be a great night. Also a great week + watching them getting theres asses kicked

 

[DakotaRules]

Ya dice ks last performance was a joke. Just a horrible showing. I wish they would just trade him. Did you see Damons interview, he wanted to come back but was hoping for another season with the tigers. I would have taken a trade of Damon for dice gay.

 

[the_bird]

I'd trade him for a flaming bag of dog ****, but I don't think even that offer's on the table. He's got that full no-trade clause, and they'd probably end up paying his full salary anyway.

 

[redliner]

pretty much all they can do is release him or potentially trade him to seattle so he can play with ichiro. Besides that i dont think he'll agree to a trade.

This thread has sunken into total blowdom.

We are now about 24 hours from the epicosity of the 120 gallon Awesomeness brew and everyone on this thread is all... "Booo hooo... Dice-k is terrible. I'm gonna run around and cry!"

lame lame lame lame lame.

OH... on a side note... I tried the TURRRRRRbid mash lambic that we brewed last summer for the first time last time...

 

[the_bird]

You'll be making the Awesomeness; I'll be having an epic dinner at the Red Newt. Paulie knows where I'm talking about.

 

[paulthenurse]

Could be worse, we could be engaged in some serious Marathon discussion. If that happened I would agree that this thread was infected with terminal suckage. But the only one complaining about the baseball chatter is you and no-one cares about what you think.

I do agree that tomorrow will be cool. I'll bring Mega Tun over in a few hours so that you can gaze upon it in admiration.

Say Hi to Dave for me. I'll be out there in June for the Golden Nose.

 

[DakotaRules]

Ill be there around 9ish.

In case you Massholes missed Cape's thread, a bunch of us met over his place and brewed up two barrels worth of The Awesomness yesterday. That's two 60 gallon wine barrels, 120 gallons of beer. We only did 90 yesterday, we had a VERY vigorous fermentation last year and had major blowoff issues in the primary fermentation vessels (four thirty gallon conicals.) If we allow the bulk of the fermentation to go and then add some fresh wort with the Roselare blend we should be righteous.

Good day was had by all, and the best part of it was that Babalu was able to join us thru the magic of the interweeb. We set up a camera and Jeff's wife brought in the laptop and plunked it down right in front of him. The only way it could of been better would have been if he could have been there to participate in the ball busting in person. Hopefully this will be a good stimulus for him in his recovery.

I do need to add that I've lost all respect for Yooper. WTF? The girl spent hours sitting in front of the computer watching us. What's up with that?

Oh! Never mind. I get it. She was getting her cheap little thrills scoping me out. Internet porn with a brewing twist. What a freakin' pervert! I feel so cheap, used and dirty right now. (But it's ok, I kind of like it)

[Melana]

Sorry i missed this one.

 

[paulthenurse]

We're starting to think you don't love us any more.

 

[ComcastWineRookie]

That was a fun day...Need any help brewing the final 30 gallons or so?

 

[Cape Brewing]

Nah, I'll bang em out.

Conicals are churning like mad and they smell insane.

 

[DakotaRules]

Cape you are a good man Charlie brown!
