I normally do 5 gallon extract batches on my stove for ease of time and space. I bought the ingredients to do 2 5 gallon batches of Thunderstruck Pumkin Ale and the LHBS guy mixed all of the grains together. I'm a little worried about trying to seperate the grains and doing two different...

I was recently given a sh*t load of Hallertau Hops from a rugby buddy that homebrews. So far, I've only brewed up a German Altbier which didn't use much of the hops. Does anyone know any good recipes that I could make with these hops? I heard that Sam Adams made an Imperial Pilsner using just...

I've heard of these damn gnomes sneaking in and slowly stealing your beer over time, but this was an all out assault! I guess the gnomes were celebrating the labor day weekend as well because while I was having a party on Friday they invited themselves over. I tapped my Jail Bail Pale Ale, which...

To celebrate the release of the next Abita Seasonal Beer, Abita Fall Fest, they invite everyone to join them in Baton Rouge on Friday, September 18th at 6pm. $1 Abita at every location and the first 500 people to arrive receive a free commemorative t-shirt. Start the party at... Roux...

This is an article that I read on the American Beer Drinking Club's website and thought I'd share here. Rice University pupils are a bit different, for they have created a beer, called 'Bio-Beer', that could extend your life. The Bio-Beer has three genes spliced into special brewer's...

So a friend of mine and I were drinking some homebrew and bsing while attemting my first kegging. He reminded my of a game we used to play in college while getting wasted at the bars. It is the funniest damn game I've ever seen and I can't believe I almost forgot about it. It was called Bar Room...

Aside from a bent regulater face which took some Macgyvering to fix, kegging is easy and awesome. I can't wait to try this beer out next week. :mug:

My group of friends are hardcore BMC drinkers. They love Coors (especially now that the moutains turn blue) and will drink Bud, but will only drink Miller if it's free which makes me laugh because I see no real difference. I've tried opening their eyes before by buying them six packs of...

I tried using the search but couldn't find anything really like this. For my 11th batch I went back to basics and brewed a True Brew Kit Continental Dark Beer. I brewed this beer on 7/14 at night and by the next morning it was fermenting away just fine. The airlock stopped bubbling on 7/16 but I...

There is a sale right now on 5 gallon Cornelius kegs. You can get a 4 pack for $98.79 plus shipping. Just type in Home Brewing and scroll down.

I have to rant here because I'm f*cking pissed off. There was a recent thread on here asking for us to give game ideas to someone who hacked a Wii. This got me thinking about an old idea for a game I had a few years back. In high school I had to read Dante's Inferno and while most of the kids...

I'm going to a Rugby Tournament in Memphis on August 1st. Although there is always a kick a$$ party afterwards, they usually consists of kegs of BMC. I was wondering if anyone knew any good places to drink good beer?

Has anyone ever been to the The Abbey in Miami? I stopped by there a couple of weeks ago and wow! They not only brew their own wonderfully, delicious beers, but they have an excellent menu full of great brews from all over. If you're ever on South Beach, do yourself a favor and stop by to have a...

The LSU Tigers are once again, the best team in College Baseball. Geaux Tigers!!!:ban::mug::rockin:

Does anyone know where to find this beer in Southern Louisiana? I drank the last bottle at Chimes' Restaurant in Baton Rouge about 7-8 months ago and they still haven't restocked it. I only had one bottle of the stuff, but it was absolutely delicious! I can't find it anywhere else that I look...

I'll be going to Miami from June 26 to July 5 and want to know what are the best places to go for good beer. Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Hello and thanks in advance for everyone's help (This site kicks ass), I'm doing my first real batch right now (I scrapped the Mr. Beer kit and got the real equipment) and I have a couple of questions. I'm using a True Brew Beer Kit for an All Malt Porter, an extract batch. The directions...
