Things a Homebrewer Thinks

[BigJack]

It's beer o'clock somewhere. (i get the strangest looks from neighbors when I get done working my 12hr shift at 6:30am and come home sit outside and drink a cold one while grabbing a smoke). It's almost like they find it odd someone would be drinking at 6:45am

A nice pint of brown ale goes well with a full southern breakfast of biscuits and grave, sausage, eggs, and hash browns.

Framboise and waffles goes well together too.

Not that I drink that early that often.

Um, anyway, I'm

Half the thoughts I have, I can't even say out loud. People would have no idea what I'm talking about, and would probably just think I'm crazy.

I can buy 2 oz of gypsum for $1, or a pound for $2? I can definitely use a whole pound...

Same thought process with hops, but toss in a foodsaver because otherwise its just a waste.

 

[BigJack]

I should really buy a few craft beers the same style of what I just brewed so I can see how mine stacks up. Two or three six-packs should do.

 

[bmathews]

I got sick I guess my BAC was to low to kill the germs. I'll have to up my levels.

 

[Nightshade]

To prevent another boil over I should buy a bigger boil kettle.

"No cold or flu this year, I attribute it to homebrew....Lots of vitamin B in that yeast you know...."

 

[Cider123]

At the store, "Hey, this sixer looks good, maybe I'll give it a try. What's this? Screw tops? F that beer!"

 

[ghosthef]

If I run an extra couple miles...that means...MORE BEER!!!!

 

[TXjayhawk]

But honey, I had to buy that beer at the store for research so I know what style I want to brew next.

Heh, I know exactly this line of reasoning. My wife doesn't help, with her insistence on hot toddies for sore throat treatment.

All (insert astronomically large # here) of my kegs are full...I guess I must need to get a few more.

Yep. I'll have all nine of my kegs with beer in them (4 totally full, 2 basically full) by the end of the week. But I'm brewing this weekend, and with a two-week turnaround on that batch, I need to buy more kegs ASAP!

Or drink faster--don't want your BAC to drop & get sick!

 

[jethro55]

Running low on bottles....need to run to the the store and buy some more beer.

 

[masskrug]

The excruciating mental math; "I have X number of full bottles and X number of empty bottles. I will be brewing in two weeks. How many bottles do I need to drink before then, yet not run out of beer?"

 

[BobbiLynn]

Whew, worn out from brewing and bottling. This is really great exercise.

 

[ghosthef]

Brew more brew more, keg, drink, burp, sleep,....repeat.

 

[Echoloc8]

"Man, I'm glad I've been working out... Hefting full fermenters and kegs is so much easier now!"

"I can't imagine why someone would think brewing beer looks illegal"

 

[unionrdr]

Couldn't be me,no not me...

 

[Nightshade]

I make the best beer in the universe, what do you mean I scored a "pity 13"

 

[tdhickey]

Not that I have planned out my brew schedule, it's time to plan the rest of my weekend

I get off at 8:30 am and by 9 I usually have a cold one in hand. I get those same looks too!

[unionrdr]

Me too when I got off at 8:30am in the Ford foundry. I'd waltz into the bar at 8:45 or so,& start on draft beers & shots of tequila. Everyone else turned a lil green,with their coffee & breakfasts. Well,hey,it's after work party time to me!...

 

[Desvio]

What if brewing beer really is the true meaning of life...?

 

[ghosthef]

It's isn't? Damn....

"I'd better finish that case of IIPA soon. I've heard that hops fade over time. (I've never owned any beer long enough to experience it but I heard it on the Internet. The Internet never lies)."

 

[Entrepreneur640]

"When our civilization collapses, my beer brewing knowledge will come in handy. Beer will be the new world currency!!! (Evil scientist laugh) "

Think about this on a daily basis. That's why it's always important to have a few hundreds bottles on hand.

I get off at 3am, I've often felt like I would be stared at for drinking beer when I get home. Except everybody is asleep because they have normal jobs that don't suck.
