I just realized Bracc was probably a "lifetime" member. So considering... well anyway, I added an extra year beyond that so presumably someone counting the beans will figure out the intention. I can't really afford to do that, but I miss him. I'll challenge yall to do the same, even if...

There was no place to ad a note. He "bought a round" way back when for me so I figured I would return the favor. I might have clicked the wrong gift button, not sure, but there was no way to ad a note with my memorial intention.

....2) I’ve always pictured @bracc as Gary Busey in Black Sheep..... I always pictured brown hair, kind of medium dark. Still not accepting he is really gone. Can one still gift him an upgrade?

Tastes great- drink it!

He lost his mom and was now living in the house that was once hers was my understanding. The lack of any obit is really bothering me. So in denial thinking mode I wonder if he was as possibly social on any other forums, would he use the same screen name.. Different search sites give...

Me too. I am all for respecting privacy, I read a lot but don't post much because I am usually a very private person. Some have mentioned being annoyed at times, but he had a huge heart. Very frugal -not cheap, (there is a difference) and inventive. Creative. He mentioned "buying a...

Somehow a bunch of onion cutting ninjas must have decided to sneak into my house tonight. He knew how to malt his own barley, long story, lots of messages. I like the idea that witness protection moved him on much better than this update.

Next hop harvest experiment time I may try a gallon batch that does not bother with scrounging for something resembling grain, (it was a gooey mess) and try just the maple syrup / honey / brown sugar heavily hopped and see what I get. I'm not sure the pantry additions added a darn thing...

If my hops are as plentiful next year I am sure I will try some off the wall experiment, maybe try to recreate the first attempt in addition to something a bit more planned. I think I will try to add a few more gallon jars to my collection just in case it does not work out quite the same. I...

My hops are phenomenal. I am so happy. I have 10 gallon size dried bags in the freezer. I got the plants from a fellow on ebay that was only an occasional seller and said he was a homebrewer. They looked awesome when I got them, took off wonderfully, then my other half decided to "help" at...

Thanks for the input guys, most observations I do know. I just had nothing on hand grain wise, lots of fresh hops, nothing open other than a 1 gallon jar, so figured oh what the hell. It's only a gallon right? Went through the pantry as you can see, used what I had, but knew it was wrong...
