We have not made it yet. We had to make changes to our brewing calendar due to festival schedules and taking our brewery apart and making some changes. The demand for our beer has gone up and we are trying to keep up with it. I never expected that given we just got into this as a hobby and we...
I agree, I have been sipping on the Mezcal for around 3 years now and it drinks the same every single time, which is why I have a hard time paying more than 30 for a single bottle (0.5l) of beer.
I bought 3 bottles of 12 year old McCallan bottled in 1980 when I finished University. I forgot...
Thanks for clearing that up. It is sometimes difficult to know how my English comes across to other people in foreign lands.
Yes, it was a "once-in-a-lifetime" purchase, (that is until the bottle is empty!) ;) I have had it for about 3 years now and have a finger or two on special occasions.
Is that how my post comes across: I am tarring an entire segment? That was not my intent, I was trying to add my observations to the conversation. Apologies if it came across that way. I am genuinely interested to know buys at those kinds of prices. I understood that's what the discussion is...

We poured this weekend at a beer festival and we used a 30 minute boil for all the beers we made. It was done as a time saving measure in order to prepare everything that we wanted to make for the event.
There was no noticeable difference in the flavors of the beer we poured and most seemed to...
I'll also add that we got better efficiency than expected with the grain bill so the abv was slightly over the higher end of the style guide range. It was a nice beer.
We have another festival this weekend and we are bringing 8 different beers, including a keg of this recipe. Depending on how...
I have never used a kit but it seems like you could save yourself some cash by following a recipe from one of the many books published on the topic and buying your own ingredients. It took me about a week to tweak a recipe and get some sage advice from the experienced people on the HB forum. We...

I started a similar thread back in March and there were some lovely people that helped me put together a recipe.
I have it posted in this Thread
We have not made it yet, as we have 8 more brews on our schedule but it will get in there eventually. The plan is to brew the recipe as...
