Transferred my Amber Ale to secondary. Cleaned primary and filled it with an Oktoberfest batch.

Also, tried my first crack at homemade baby back ribs while brewing...turned out great.

Very productive day.

Went to bell's and picked up 5 gallons of wort for the homebrew contest. Also went to a couple nice bottle shops and bought some Jolly pumpkin so my 2 hour drive wasn't without benefits.

[user 30639]

I attempted to introduce some craft beer to a person yesterday. I was at the football watch party for the alumni association, and the girl next tome wanted a Bud Lite. The bartender told her they didn't have it on tap (they have a good draft selection). I told her to order the blonde I was drinking. The bartender talked her out of it and into order a Harp.

I let her try my beer, and she liked it better than the Harp.

 

[crosschk]

I bottled a batch of Cowboy Lager . First time using glass bottles and first time using the dishwasher as a sanitizer. I organized my bottle storage area. Finally I created a space in an unused tub for carbing bottles. It stays between 68-74 in there. Should be ok. I hope

 

[wSelwyn]

Getting ready to clean, clean, clean because I was too lazy the other day after brewing. I still have another week or so until I brew again, but I really don't want to clean then... So today it is.

 

[odinsgift]

Sanitizing bottles in hopes to bottle two bocks, and a tuborg clone.
