:confused: Last night on Channel 13 News (Salt Lake City) I saw a story about homebrewing. The City of South Salt Lake, Utah is pondering putting a law on their books making it illegal to homebrew! :mad: The news interviewed one of the employees at our local Homebrew Supply Store (The Beer Nut)...

:mad: I doubt it, "good muslims" don't drink... ;) Roger "Doc". :cool:

:rolleyes: Utah is run and controlled by the Mormon Church and it's members... The alcohol laws are very repressive here etc. If you are not LDS, you are an outsider, and many times treated like scum... Things are changing as more and more people move here from out of State who are not Mormon's...

"Make beer, not bombs!" The slogan for my local homebrew supply store, "The Beer Nut" in Salt Lake City... They even have it on a bumper sticker and t-shirts! :D Roger "Doc". :cool:

:D Hey everybody out there in homebrew land... My name is Roger "Doc". I am a 44 year old skateboarding Grandfather and homebrewer. I also like camping and four wheeling in my Jeep! I live behind the "Zion Curtain" of Northern Utah (Layton, North of Salt Lake City). I first got into homebrewing...

:p I brought home a "Growler" (1/2 Gallon) of a great, smokey Oatmeal Stout from Squatter's. It's called, "Captain Bastard's Oatmeal Stout." Good stuff, smooth, smokey with just enough bite... :D I have the makings for "Bohemian Pilsner". It will be my next batch, but after that I'm going...

I drank a bunch of Heiniken and saved up the bottles... I have used these to make several batches with no problems. I recently upgraded to a lever style capper, and love it! I is so much easier to use than the cheesy one that originally came with my homebrew kit... Soon though, I hope not to...

I am really sick of sanitizing bottles! I am thinking of purchasing a couple of Party Pigs. Has anyone ever used or tried these? I brew five gallons at a time, so two of them would be just about right... My eventual goal if to get a Korny Keg system, but for right now I can't afford to do so...

Beer, helping homely people get laid for thousands of years... :D Roger "Doc". :cool:

:p Today is My Wife karen and my 20th. wedding anniversary. It feels like 20 minutes, underwater! Just kidding, it's all good... We are repeating our marriage vows tonight. We chose Squatter's Brew Pub (a micro-brewery/eatery) in Salt Lake City. Should be fun. Family, friends, food and of course...
