Upstate Greetings

[NYeric]

Upstate New York, first time brew in the fermenter as I write this. Hard to type with my fingers crossed

Welcome.
Now uncross those finger and Relax Don't Worry Have A Home Brew! Since you obviously do not have any homebrew yet, any brew is better than worrying.

It's gonna be fantastic! What did you make???

details, details!!!

 

[NYeric]

1/2 lb two row malt
2oz Kent Goldings
3.3 amber extract
1 lb light dry
1 lb honey
ale yeast

An Irish red, maybe similar to Killians

I think all is well

Where are you in upstate NY? I'm about an hour outside of Albany, in northwest MA. There's a good number of folks from the general area on the board, and it seems to be more and more every week.

Welcome aboard!

Hi Bird...

We are located about 30 minutes west of Albany. You ever heard of Altamont?

 

[the_bird]

Sure - Fairgrounds are out there, aren't they?

If you're looking for a good homebrew shop, check out Hennessy Homebrew Emporium in Rensselaer (just outside of Troy). Not sure if you have a place that's more local than that, but Hennessy's a real good shop, the owner's a real nice guy.

Already been there. Bought everything from him...You are right the owner is a great guy. I will be going back soon to get some wine making supplies, base on my last visit to his store I think I might bring a designated driver....

Oh and yes...fairgrounds are about 4 miles away.

Anyne going to TAP New York?
