When your car has no business entering your garage

I wish I'd been into brewing when I moved into my place. I haven't had a car in years, but I would love to have a garage now.

 

[zmanzorro]

You consider this a badge of honor

 

[Cheesy_Goodness]

You briefly entertain the idea of replacing all of the faucets in your sinks around the house with perlicks to fancy the place up.
One for cold, one for hot...and think of the customization with the tap handles!

I have been known to take vacation days to brew more then one batch of beer so I could free up the fermenters for the next payday.

When you buy a bigger house because your brewing equipment doesn't fit in you garage anymore!

This is the main reason I build up my vacation days! But this year, friggin' life keeps interrupting me!

Compared to last year, I'm around 9 brew days behind. That sucks!!!
And I have 14.5 days to burn for vacation. But I'm dedicated to my job.

Keep my job as long as possible, do the best I can at work,... better chances for bigger raises and that dream brewery.

That thought alone will probably keep me working longer than the others who just dream of retirement day.

pb --- When I'm not drinking I'm trying to find brewing time.
When I'm drinking,... I'm glad I found brewing time!

Keep that friggin' pipeline flowing!!!:rockin::rockin::rockin:

 

[frozennorth]

When the new dishes your wife ordered arrive packed in bubble wrap and she sighs and says, "Should I save it for shipping beer?"

 

[ArizonaGoalie]

When your non-brewing friends consider you the ultimate beer guru because you're a brewer.

 

[inkyHat]

When you're in someone elses garage and all you do is point out equipment that can be used to brew.

 

[BadDeacon]

When you have a crappy night working on a car and you sit down in the garage and hear your blow off tubes bubbling away and it makes everything better.

 

[Brew_Dude41]

When SWMBO is asking to sync her calender with your brew schedule.

 

[Brew_Dude41]

When you find yourself reading and posting to these forums 20 minutes to midnight, but you only turned the computer on "5 minutes ago" at 9pm...

 

[srooch2]

When every empty building you drive by makes you start visioning a brewery/brewpub there...... and how you can actually make it happen.

That's so true. I do that all the time.

 

[unionrdr]

yup. Same here. A couple places up the corner from me have a good location for such an enterprise... I'd love to open a BBQ/Brewpub...

 

[uphillbrewer]

Ha, that's awesome! Although the clean up is the real badge of honor!

That happens to me all the time. lol:rockin:

[BreezyBrew]

When your bookshelf looks like this!

 

[unionrdr]

When you order brewing stuff from Morebeer & you just have to have the black & tan trucker cap as well...

 

[rockbasementbeer]

When you brew a saison and think "do i want to bottle this with brett or keg it as is?!"....this is probably my biggest current dilemma

 

[weet234]

When you get ready to diet, you brew a doppelbock.

 

[203PH]

Did that just 2 days ago at my folks house. Picked up two Mr Heaters for when I have to move the operation off the patio and into the garage during the New England winter.

 

[drchernus]

When your wife gets you an awesome gift like this:

 

[1fast636]

When you barter work for brewing ingridents, my buddy wants me to notch some tubing for his brew stand I said sure get me my grain and hops for my next brew as payment lol

 

[Black Island Brewer]

When you get ready to diet, you brew a doppelbock.

And have only that for 40 days.

 

[kmckiou]

When your morning trip to the porcelain throne smells disturbingly like hops.

 

[kmckiou]

When you've been kegging exclusively for a year, but refuse to get rid of 120 of your de-labelled bottles "just in case" you need to bottle a couple batches.

I have been kegging exclusively for 2 years and still have a dozen 12 pack boxes of Sierra Nevada cleaned and de-labelled...so true, so true

 

[Kirkwooder]

When every one of your neighbors ask how your hop plants are doing this year, even before saying "Hello."
