My OCD is kicking in. You have two MI breweries in WI slots, and a WI brewery in the MI slot.


I'm pretty sure I was still buzzed from last night. :D

I have CT in VT - the east coast will be hard to fill because the states are so small. The rest of this thing will be tough as hell to fill with beer caps from the missing states. I'll just rough it. Otherwise, it'll never get filled.

I'd love to help you with TX in a couple of weeks.

I got green coffee and a popcorn popper to roast it in, some boots, some flannel shirts, a non-stick skillet...

Not a lot. I don't ask for a lot.
 
I got the same book Remmy did and its awesome!, a bag of bottle caps, a wall mount bottle opener and a inkbird temp controller.

Some beer money was it for beer stuff. But my sister in law gave me a canned grow-your-own kit for Moruga Scorpion peppers. Who knows if/how well they'll grow but I'm keen to give it a go. My wife is less than thrilled as she can barely handle jalapenos.
 
A brand new keg, beer, pieces and tools to build a collar on my keezer, along with a gift card to buy beer faucets, a sweater, sd card, xbox live gold, Grunt Style shirt club membership, a Roku 4 and Amazon Prime for the family, and a new tablet case

An All American Ale Works PowerGrinder 1/2 hp capacitor start direct drive motor to power my Monster Mill! No more drill for me!


It's stupid overkill but, I love overkill.

I got a new set of SS BBQ tongs, an apron, a gift card to the lcl bottle shop, cheese & sausage, a box o' beer & homemade jams, a Kringle & another year of HBT. I'm a happy camper. :)
Regards, GF.

Mine is just a Michigan map. 127 holes to fill with just Michigan breweries. Are there enough breweries that bottle to even do that? Looks I need to go shopping.
 
I got a 2 spout tower for my kegerator so I don't have to open the fridge and use picnic tap for my second keg. might have to take my keggy apart for my gas line so I can have 3 gas lines just 2 and tired of unhooking and rehooking gas. also a 200 nb gift card
 
20 gallon OBKettle, gift certificate to Sam Bat to have a custom baseball bat made, tinted visor for my Marquez Shoei RF1200, bottle of the Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye (******* it is tasty)

Going to buy myself a blichmann floor burner today, also

Mine is just Wisconsin. I'm going to put a Milwaukee cap where Milwaukee is, and do the same for New Glarus, Madison, and Green Bay. The rest is going to just be caps from all over the country.
 
got a ph meter pen, and a refractometer. Just what i wanted :)
 
No equipment but my wife ordered a Surly Bender kit. I usually don't brew kits but she heard me talking about this beer with a friend and ordered it. Made the yeast starter last night.
 
My girlfriend bought me some new Ss Brewtech gear...An Infusion mash tun, a 7gal chronical Brewmaster ed., a sparge arm and temperature controls.

I hope you're giving her a ring soon. Holy FAWK she is a keeper.

I bought my step-father the beer cap map for Nevada and added the wall mount. The first one broke so they sent me a second for free and now I have one. Some people get creative with theirs and make it the state flag colors (Texas did this) or make circle patterns with their favorite breweries. I figured it would be cool just to keep caps from beers he likes or have a creative design plus his sports bar has a University of Nevada theme so I could probably add school colors in there.

I've decided to try and do all Michigan, with a few special exceptions...Great Lakes Brewing has a place on my map for more than one reason.

EDIT: and I may allow 3 Floyds in the SW corner and New Glarus in the western UP.

Big fan of GLB. Their tank 10 series is constantly fantastic (drinking a Lake Effect IPA as I type) and so are their seasonals, though I wasn't super thrilled with this year's Winter Ale for whatever reason.

Super thrilled with my new gear. The tinted visor looks badass. Also, well aware the thermometer on the kettle is upside-down; I put it in for picture purposes only. The nut it came with needs to be replaced as it is raw and not threaded.

I got a grain mill, I think it's the Cereal Killer, with a decent sized hopper. And I got an oxygenation stone. Time to brew a big RIS!
 
Got a Thermapen to replace my cheap broken thermometer that I've had since almost the beginning.

It's an expensive piece of equipment, but it does read pretty dang fast!
 
Thermapen Mk4. Thanks to my wife. Waterproof, backlight, rotating display.

This is what I asked Santa for prior to Christmas, but ended up with a Blichmann Brewmometer Adjustable weldless dial thermometer! Aw, bless my wi---, er... I mean, Santa's heart! Needing something portable, I asked 'him' if I could exchange it and got a gracious thumbs-up.
