My ramblings - Many beer related

[dotJerdot]

First impression, beer pours in 12oz mugs and giving a bunch of head.

 

[dotJerdot]

These better be cheap but I doubt they are.

 

[dotJerdot]

Just ordered pizza, its the only thing on the menu

 

[tx-brewer]

Wtf are you drinking

 

[dotJerdot]

I had local beer, two roads and it was done in 12oz mugs with 1 inch foam. This place needs to adjust their mugs to get real beer drinkers to frequent.

 

[dotJerdot]

Remember that this place ONLY serves pizza and beer. No drink menus, no food menus. So pizza and beer better be freaking good. It's not.

I went last year and it was great, tons of food and beer. I would recommend if there is one in your area

 

[dotJerdot]

I need to use up all the hops in my freezer

 

[dotJerdot]

I am going to make an extract brew, I would say 6 pounds of DME to make a nice +/- 5% beer

 

[dotJerdot]

I have some magnum

 

[dotJerdot]

some cluster

 

[dotJerdot]

some summit

 

[dotJerdot]

1oz of centennial

 

[dotJerdot]

and 1oz of cascade

 

[dotJerdot]

I think i'll buy a pound of caramel 10L and make a nice pale

 

[dotJerdot]

Any ideas?

 

[dotJerdot]

I keep reading about 2 1/2 wine kits.. Maybe it will be a use for my 3 gallon carboys..

 

[dotJerdot]

I guess all I need is a corker, I have everything else

 

[dotJerdot]

I just finished racking my new pale ale into the keg

 

[dotJerdot]

time to force carb

 

[dotJerdot]

doing the force carb at 23 psi, I think that will be enough

 

[dotJerdot]

letting the carboy soak with PBW, that stuff rocks

 

[dotJerdot]

waiting is the worst part

 

[dotJerdot]

all clean

 

[dotJerdot]

drying time

 

[dotJerdot]

Getting everything put away

 

[dotJerdot]

Still have the carboy upside down drying though

 

[dotJerdot]

heading to taste of the nation tonight, hope there are some good brews

 

[dotJerdot]

I know the food will be good

 

[dotJerdot]

Just entered a home brew comp at http://www.coalhousepizza.com/

 

[dotJerdot]

put in a black IPA, hope it holds up

 

[dotJerdot]

Just found out they are making a second one http://www.marathonmovie.com/

 

[dotJerdot]

Would be fun to see that in the theater

 

[dotJerdot]

It's odd how there are so many beer drinkers that love running.
