Sunday !
I’m headed to North Carolina in May. I know there are a few guys on here from there, but I apologize I can’t remember who you are. Any suggestions for places to try or local beer to buy. I’ll be in Wilmington and Winston-Salem/Kernersville.
After work beer. Grapefruit IPAs appear to be a thing again.

What size batch do you make grampa? It seems like you have something brewing quite often. I’m looking to reduce my batches down to 3 gallons instead of five to give myself a little more variety more often. I just need a couple more small kegs.
3gal rock! Easier on the back too..
All this talk of small brew sizes and here I am having a pint from the first five gallon batch. I usually do 1-3 gallon batches only, but when i did a 2.5 gallon keg of this one previously I liked it so much I decided I would go ahead and make a 5 gallon batch of it! Citra pale ale. So good.
Before this enjoyed a can of rodenbach with some cheese puffs my wife whipped up as a stress reliever this afternoon (note to self, keep her stressed these things are tasty!)

It gets easier... what did you brew?
I brew 5 gal batches, about every 2 weeks, on average. I give enough away that I’m probably drinking the equivalent of a 3 gal batch.
When I brew at our city house, which I only do 4 or 5 times a year, I do 2.5 gal BIAB. That’s mostly because of a lack of space for brewing/storing/serving.

I do a lot of my drinking in my cave. That’s where my kegerator is as well as a lot of my hunting trophies as you can see in many of my photos.
HB Irish Stout
I like to give a lot of my beer away too. Most of my ales are 5 gallon batches and my lagers are 3. It seems like my favorites are the 3 gallon batches that seem to dry up too soon.I brew 5 gal batches, about every 2 weeks, on average.

I have a 21 yo grandson who’s home from college almost every weekend and who usually brings a friend (or 2).
That’ll do it!

While you're in Wilmington, a former coworker of mine is now an owner at Wrightsville Beach Brewery
Thanks, I’ll start a list of possible stops. We usually go to Wrightsville beach at Johnnie Mercer’s pier.
Forgot to get a photo, but I tried Founders Dirty Bastard wee heavy for the first time tonight. Pretty nice!
I brewed a hoppy-ish wheat ale, I cant wait to try it in 5-6 weeks!

Not RIGHT now, but late last night I had two selections from Sierra Nevada... Wanderland nectarine ale (7.5% abv) which was crisp, light and tasty for a high gravity beer. The second was Bigfoot barleywine!! 10% abv, FTW!!

That explains the label(s) now...was kind of surprised someone started a brewery in lil ole Titonka : )
Same city / down the street.
Correct - long story short the first dosage makes your body aware of the protein and how to fight it. Then when you receive the second dosage, your body already knows how to fight it ... and does, successfully. That's why you feel crappy...it's your body getting rid of the fake "virus" (protein).

Wife and I went to the beach to watch elephant seals
(cocktails on the beach)
And a friend came up and stayed with us/me for a few days while he did some electrical work on the RV, hot tub, garage, etc. He doesn't drink, and I can always use an excuse to not have a daily beer, so I had these while he was up here.
And yesterday's daily beer - my peanut butter oatmeal session stout (2.63% ABV)
