Yo Fins...what would you want to trade for a bottle of your vanilla face RIS?

Anything would be fine! I may have to hold off for a month or two as I have a few trades in the works and lots of brewing to do for my step fathers b-day party. If thats alright with you, we can get something together then.
 
This is what i found this morning. Looked like a warzone. Idk how long the lid was off but im not too worried. Gose is violent bunch lol

That beer got up in the middle of the night, stole your car, robbed a 7-11, went to a casino, hired women and then came home and stared at you while you were sleeping. I'd be careful with that one if I were you. Trade it all away before it's too late.
 
Found a bomber of one of the DIPAs I brewed 3-4 months ago.

Well, if that were the case I'd start by finding out where that beer buried the bodies!
 
I had to buy another fitting/attachment...that housing in the middle. It's slightly bigger so it can cap the 750 ml bottles. The problem with this capper is it doesn't completely clamp down on these bottles. I did my best and hope the pressure holds. I didn't want to put too much strength into it fearing I'd break the bottles. They seem pretty tight and I had capped a few empties before capping those bottles with actual beer in them.


I've capped the 750ml "wine" type bottles with a Red Baron hand capper. It gets stuck and I have to pull it off but it works. Just had to get the larger bell housing.

Drinking a HB saison

'Bout to take a nap :D
 
I broke two of those suckers (trying to clamp the caps down as tight as possible.) So I finally picked up a bench capper and now kick myself in the arse for not doing it sooner. That works like a charm and while I will probably pick up the bigger bell to do the 750ml bottles "correctly" the standard bell put that on tight as hell so I don't think there will be a problem (I too had to pry the bottle out of the bell after capping.)

Oh ... and water. For a short while longer as I fill out these GD TPS reports for work! :drunk:
 
Hoping this will calm my nerves. I was just weighing out grains for tomorrows brew and realized I was a pound short of roasted barley. I was just in the car heading to my closest LHBS, an hour away, but decided I should call to make sure they had it in stock. THEY ARE CLOSED AND THEY OPEN AT 11AM EVERYDAY! Normally it wouldnt be a big deal but I absolutely have to brew tomorrow for a surprised party in October. Now my only hope is someone in the local HB club can sell me a pound.

/rant. Not that anyone cares. At least I have hops to drink :D

Nightcap for Mark! Ha ha

Picked up grain for my oaked imperial pumpkin ale.

Just got done mowing. Drinking this straight out of the bottle.

Damn, I just got hop blocked. Got home after a very rough week, wanting some beers. As soon as I walked in, I saw my 6 year old wearing her T-Ball uniform...make up game!

Serenity now!!!

Substitution? Scale down the recipe? Roast some other grain you already have on hand?

Drinking a manhattan before going out for my wife's birthday. Dinner last night was a success.

She's not cooperating for the surprise party tomorrow tho. My co-conspirator is having difficulty getting her to agree to our plan, haha.
 
Water in the park after running (literally) to get the youngest at daycare. Need to get in better shape again.

Just need to burn more calories, 'cause I am not cutting back on the beer!

So, sour or hops? Have to make room in the beer fridge for food.
