Just want to say I personally am very thankful for lots of things, family, friends, my health and beer... Especially homebrew. And HBT of course! Seriously what a great site, entertaining and educational! Now, what's your fav brew to down with your bird? I'm going with a vanilla coffee porter...

I'm hoping to make to transition to all grain. I've watched some youtube vids, read info on HBT (all very helpful, much appreciated) but since I am a hands on kinda person, would love to go to a class or a more formal training session on the how to's...I've searched my area, STL, MO and not...

Anyone besides me play? I'm either going to start a clan or would like to join one with people of similar interest if y'all have openings.. Or am I the only homebrewer who likes clans?? :)

Just wanted to say it to everyone in the Homebrew community that celebrates! Cheers, I love my country :)

Headed to the Heritage Brewfest in forest park today and from what I'm told is going to be on tap from the local Homebrew Clubs, I'm really excited! I'm stoked that Homebrew is legal at MO events again! I'm volunteering for a shift then staying to sample at the evening event. I love beer but 11...

I can't buy Yuengling where I live ( boo hiss ) but would love to brew a clone. I love the black n tan most, but any of them would be awesome to brew. I'm a extract brewer, anyone know of a kit to buy to get me some 'almost Yuengling'? Thx all! Prost

I love brewing beer, but I don't "get" the whole love of the science or math of brewing beer, maybe it's my feminine side, maybe its cause I'm a blonde, maybe cause I like to KISS. But give me good homebrew and cheers! Enjoy your product gentlemen, just dont mind me as I glaze over when y'all...

Long boring story short, I'm learning to like IPA's a little more... I can't say they are my favorite or first choice but I certainly don't make a sour face anymore like I used to when I first tried it. Brewing has definitely increased my appreciation of hops and now I'm looking for ideas of...

I say open season on groundhogs if that furry little rat b@st@rd crawls out of his hole and says anything about six more weeks of cold stuff tomorrow! I'll even throw in a couple bucks towards a hunting party! ha! :D

My local chain grocery store started carrying Henry Weinhards recently, then I started seeing the commercials on TV, (liked the "beer fountain" idea) figured I give them a try Liked the Northwest Trail although it surprised me, very light in color... I was thinking it would be flavorless but it...

So once upon a time a little miss blonde woman wanted to Brew her beer ... And she did and it was good, and God smiled upon her... So then she wanted to brew more, but was stuck with extract and would love to brew all grain but needed a person to help her. Show her. Teach her... lol

I've got my Imperial Blonde in my primary and it's doing well but I started thinking that Im not sure what an Imperial Blonde is... I just saw the label that showed a big, Bold, Higher ABV blonde and thought, hey that sounds like me, it's got to be good right? (yes, I'm a dork, please forgive)...

I'm always looking to try something new, and since I'm born and raised in the St. Louis, MO area my interest was peaked when I heard AB was trying to attract the 'craft beer' crowd with it's newest addition Black Crown... Well, I was disappointed with the taste to say the least. It reminded me...

The kids are cold and ask me to turn up the thermostat... Nah, go grab a blanket I say But my ale wasn't warm enough to ferment... Yup crank up that heat! lol

I did my first smoked "blonde" ale using a blonde extract kit & using some smoked grains. It was delicious!! However my "blonde" turned into a brunette with the smoked grains...any thoughts on keeping it light colored with a great smokey flavor?? Any other smoked ale suggestions? Love that...

I'm interested in doing a smoked blonde ale this fall, any advice on how to incorporate the smoke flavor? I use kits. I've heard about people smoking the grains but wonder if you have any tips on how to? Also what about using an additive like liquid smoke? Any feedback is greatly appreciated...

The festival is this coming weekend downtown St. Louis, Mo and I have been greatly looking forward to attending as usual. This year they changed the location from Forest Park to Ballpark Village, slightly more inconvenient to myself personally, but ok I can travel further and stand in 90+...

Im really liking my latest brew and it definitely turned out more clear this time. First time I tried secondary fermentation, think I'm sold on it :)

I'm looking to brew up a summer brew with some great fruit flavor. Anyone tried an extract kit they loved? I like all fruit flavorings but am hoping for some recommendations from experience... My last fruit beer attempt was lacking the fruit taste almost totally Thanks and Cheers!
