I entered this beer into a wort share competition at Coney Island Brewery. It took 2nd Place out of 25 entries. I missed the chance of brewing it on their system by 3 points. The winner was a Chocolate cherry stout. Mine is a Belgian Pale brewed with Circus Peanuts.

I cobbled together a wooden 6 pack holder to present to a friend of mine, who is moving out of town. I will be adding 3 bottles of my coffee stout and 3 bottles of a Belgian double.

Well, after a year of kegging, I have had my first problem. I kegged a Belgian Double yesterday, I went to purge the head space with co and set the seals only to find I had run out of gas. that would have been a non issue by it self, but I also found 2.5 gals of my winter ale in the bottom of...

Chocolate Egg Cream Stout

Hello all, I am wanting to clone Jonas Bronck's "Chocolate Egg cream Stout". I have had it a few times, and it does taste like an egg cream that I would have had as a kid growing up in NYC. I have a stout kit from NB, and the Foxes U-Bet chocolate syrup that they use, I just can't figure out...

I cobbled together a 2x6 inner collar, can't decide on the outer. It will look better when I do. I wanted to get my Belgian dubbel cooled down and in my glass for this weekend. I had it carbing at room temp for a few days at 30psi. Got the kezzer down to 42*F, purged the keg and set regulator to...

The top of the post (beer out) has a small dent on it. Being my first keg, I am unsure if the O-ring makes the whole seal or if the top of the post matches to a gasket also. I noticed this after I kegged and conditioned my Belgian Dubbel. I don't want to see it shooting out from under the QD. I...

I received my shinny new 5# bottle last week. Not wanting to exchange it for an old beat up one, I started calling every place I could think of, most of them are at least 10 miles away, all wanted to just do exchanges. As I started to get frustrated, a coworker suggested I call a paint ball...
