Bottle Dead Ringer IPA tomorrow... 8 pound pork butt to slow smoke on Monday...
 
Sweating my ass off, because the air conditioning went out. Damn compressor!

Also, I just cleaned my brew kettle that I never cleaned after my last brew day over a month ago. I figured there would be sticky wort and hop bits dried on the kettle. I sure as heck did not expect to see so much mold. :mad: Ugh.

Scrubbing that with hot water running and no air conditioning had sweat dripping from my brow and my shirt is soaked.

Time to go sit in the somewhat cooler basement and try to relax.
 
Going to Citifeild. To watch the Mets beat up Washington. I hope... eat some BBQ and drink some homebrew.
 
At a ranch in California for my sister in-law's wedding. I took my wife out shooting for the first time earlier today. We shot 12 & 20 gauge shotguns and a 22 rifle. I had her start with the 12 gauge!!! LOL It was awesome and such a laugh for her first time shooting.

Hopefully I'll be brewing next weekend when we return home.
 
Hanging out with the grand kids. We have all five under one roof. That goodness I have beer on tap.
 
I have a roofer coming out to give me an estimate in a new roof from storm damage a few months back. Then might take the family to a new restaurant on the lake, drink a few beers and relax before having to work tomorrow.
 
Mine was storm damaged a couple years ago, & homeowner's insurance covered the roof & damaged garage door. Got upgrades on both!:ban:
 
Finishing the repair on my True GDM-12 ferm chamber. I'll probably control it with a PID I've got lying around, but may go BrewPi or STC-1000+ eventually.

I'm hoping to get a few upgrades too. We also have some water damage from leaks so I get a newly painted gameroom. Best part is I wanted to paint that room anyway.
 
I had that happen with the outside faucet in front of the house. Got this fancier one that has a pre-chamber on it to prevent freezing & bursting inside the basement where it connects to the pipe. I got the 30-year roofing, along with improvements on the garage door. like these plastic wind seals over the door section joints. & it's designed to roll up & down with less effort. The roofing I got looks a lot like cedar shingles to match the colors/style of the house, a Georgian-style colonial.
 
Does trying to empty a keg count as brewing? If so I brew every weekend.

Today I am trying to empty a keg and going sailing.
 
I have a Honey Amber Ale in the kettle right now. It is called the Bee's Knees Honey Amber Ale.
Recipe looked good and it smells great cooking.
I will post the recipe if it turns out OK,
 
I had to go fishing. THis was the first time in 3 yrs for surface fish and I didn't embarrass my self. Now I just had a keg kick so I need to be brewing!
 
Mixed 3 TBSP's PBW in about 4 gallons of water to start removing labels from the bottles in my collection. I'm going to dry & press them flat after removal to frame in poster frames like these coasters;

There's a lot of twist-offs anyway, & I don't use the stubbies anymore. Not to mention, I need to empty one more twelve pack box in the garage for bottles I'm using.
 
Upper intake, lower intake manifold gaskets, valve cover gaskets, coolant elbows and genrealy tune-up...car geeks guess the motor.

Ex-wife just got her first new job outside of the public transportation world.
