This is how I'm trying to get more 2 Hearted, Jai Alai, and Pliny. Haven't had Heady Topper but my wife's boss wants me to give it a shot too.

Just for the record, it's not illegal for people to buy ingredients for me, right? I have several offers.


It's not illegal. Just don't sell it after you've pitched yeast. I've had several people buy ingredients. That's how brews get moved up on the brew list in my house.
More OverRated with deer sausage. @thatjonguy

And if you decide to hold back a 6 or 12-pack for yourself afterward, just don't tell the tax man.

Perfect. Absolutely. I brew it, keep half-ish, they get the rest. Only after I get good at it. Wifey's boss wants proof that home brew is good before he gives bits go. I might just toss him a few. He's good people.
 
13%+ cider. OT for UNC and Duke...wow. Don't like either, but as an NC State fan, any time Carolina loses is good!

Better yet... just have them pitch in for a six pack's worth of ingredients.
 
Water before bed. Watching the news. Always nice to see the areas I frequent for work are on the list of areas of the city with the highest gang related crimes.

Well i know for a fact the Pliny clone recipe on this site is awesome. 1st attempt at HT didn't go well.
 
Happy Birthday to you!


Coffee...soon, just need to move my ass.






Happy birthday!

Coffee #2.



Happy bday RevKev!

Green tea for me. Fasting until dinner. Hopefully I'll get my Blood Orange wheat brewed today.

Oh well I'll tell ya this I'm actually an ordained minister under the church of the latter day dude (the big lebowski) har har but went out to Pearl Street got this and am killing a thirty of . . . the devils beer. Bud heavy.

I'd like to meet your "people"..no it isn't. Only illegal to have others, beside those that collaborate on the brew, drink your HB.
 
It's state by state....think hb clubs and competitions sharing is allowed in all 50 states. If your really concerned, Google it. Don't think many here are..🍻


I'm not concerned, at all. Everyone who's getting my beer works with me or my wife. They have a vested interest in keeping us out of court.
 
Holy **** you guys were busy today! 247 unread posts.

Someone catch me up...just drove 15 hours to Denver. Finally got checked into the hotel. Ready to read the inside of my eyelids.

Drool.

We got 96 cases of Hopslam this year...hope there is some around when I get back.




Kidding! At $18 a six pack in ND it should be around around for a week or so.


I hope.

Just have them there while you brew, at least for a short while and call it a collaboration.

Dog obedience class really screws up Wednesday night drinking :( Will make up for it tonight with some super juicy Hop JuJu when I have to make cupcakes for PWD. For now, coffee.
 
Coffee and an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese. Its a balmy 12 degrees outside today, and although I know it is far colder in the midwest and (middle east?, what do you call the states in the central time zone?) I can't imagine what the temperatures you all are experiencing are like. Don't really want to either.

So, how are the Cigar City Puppy's Breath Porter and Winter Warmer for drinking now? Should I age them? I have one of each and I'm not sure how long to hang onto them.



:


Puppy's Breath should be consumed fairly fresh, IMO. It's good, but nothing really special about that one, it gets a lot of local hype because it was a long time tasting room draft only beer. WWWW can go either way, drink it now for the full hop forward experience or save it for a year or four for a drastically different drinking experience.
Drinking ice water.
 
Pliny the who? Heady what? They have nothing on this beer.

I bought a lot of this to trade away, but I can't stop drinking it.

Dang! Now I'm curious.
I'm between soda and beer at the moment.

Trying to start some Bootcha :mug:
Like @allenH said, Puppy's Breath is good now, WWWW is good to age I bet but I drank mine right up. It was wonderful.

Wait. I thought it was only illegal to sell it. It's illegal to share entirely?
I was unaware of any laws against me sharing home brew. I do it quite frequently mostly growler fills at a time. I'll have to look that up.

Are you looking for two hearted ale?
Lol, I just shipped your Fresh Squeezed. Guess I should have asked if you wanted anything from Denver and waited?
haha It is okay. I seriously need to dial back on trades. We're getting a lot of stuff here in NC, but the real reason comes down to how much I am spending each month on beer. Even though I buy and then receive, shipping adds up. I may have looked at my bank statement for the last 6 months...I felt sick and then realized why I get emails about rehab centers!


Coffee and protein shake. These sleepless nights are killing me.
@nukebrewer will you text @remmy and make sure that kid is okay?

The central middle I think.

Quaffi time!

I was thinking WWWW was one to hang onto, but I saw someone else drinking it and was afraid it might not be. I think I'll stick Puppy's Breath in the fridge.

I looked at the NC law on home brew and it says it's legal to produce, transport and consume beer for yourself, your family, and your guests. Actually, I didn't see any language that specifically prohibited the exchange of money, but I guess that's probably covered in other alcohol related laws.
 
Flower power with breakfast as I woke up in bad form.. Going to pick up smother 1/6th from consumers as ST 2xIPA is killed. I needa hb

I drank a fresh WWWW after I saw thisView attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1424354301.181817.jpg
And I reminded mcbaumanerb and wobrien that I sent them one last year.
(It makes sense now that they are the same person. mcwobrienerb has been double dipping from me!)
 
Full Throttle. Tired.

Had to attach blowoff tube this morning after all, may have been minutes from disaster.

Coffee, giddy with anticipation of getting beermail from Texas today. Shoveled a very distinct path through the snow to a spot for the delivery guy to put it.
 
More coffee.
USPS hasn't picked up or delivered all week or if they are, they're not hitting our streets.
Bastards.
