Very good! Thank you mark
 
got a growler of Winter Games 34 @ Okoboji Brewing Company. the guy that was brewing left and they're re-structuring everything: styles to be brewed, recipes, procedure. hopefully it will be a very positive change and they can get their big system up & running again.

Drank coffee through my brew day and should have drank beer. Failed on my brew day and I'm just generally annoyed. Think I'll crack open a euphoria when I get inside.
 
Just drank a gravity sample of the apfelwein I just whipped up. 2lbs dextrose and 1 lb brown sugar, turned out to be 1.070. 9.5% sounds good to me :D

For those that live in PA, would shipping a beer box on monday that will land thursday be safe?

No bueno. What happened?

Michelada here.
 
I got to try this randomly at the homebrew shop last weekend. A guy was in that had just been out your way for work.

Solid beer.. A little thin, but aroma and hop flavor was insane.


Definitely thin. But aroma and flavor are incredible as is the case with almost all of their IPAs.
 
Yeah. :( whatever. It'll be beer. I'm just a *******.

Drinking this before I shower up. Friends opted to hang out with other friends today so our plans are cancelled. Imma gonna drink.

That sucks...but at least it will be future beer. Sorry about the "friends". I'm drinking caffeine free Coke and going to try to get a brief nap in before I have to go retrieve kids from a play date.

Looking forward to NEXT weekend...my next (Big Brew) brew day and I should be bottling my American Wheat/Citrus/Citra sometime next weekend, too!

Nice and me too. You guys should come over to apex dispensary real quick for some terrapin wake and bake. I need to pick up something for a trade.

I had a Rogue Shakespeare Stout extract kit that I wanted to bump up to 10 gallons so I asked my LHBS for help. They're all brewers and brew for the brewery from time to time. They bumped up the DME in beer smith and noticed the color never changed so they said not to add more steeping grains. Adding all that DME to about 3 lbs of steeping grains resulted in missing my OG by .040 (should be 1.090 but it is 1.050) and then the hops clogged my dip tube and as I was racking with a syphon I forgot to close the valve so once the clog was clear wort everywhere in my garage. Had a leak in my thermometer bulkhead so that was a mess to fix too. Then I thought I shook both vials of yeast but not well enough. I pitched and yeast was stuck in the vial so I had to figure that out. Just annoyed and I'm sure it has a little to do with my "friends" and probably not that I'll have a delicious brown ale, just not the 10 gallons of stout I wanted to have. Maybe I should quit brewing before I get hurt. Haha
