All Grain Brewing / Re: Your FIRST all grain?

Ordinary Bitter for me because it was inexpensive and the time between brewday and drinking was short.

General Homebrew Discussion / Re: What's Brewing This Weekend - 10/29 Edition

No brewing for me this weekend. I'm going to bottle my AIPA on Friday. Have two birthday parties on Saturday, and All Hallows Eve on Sunday. Maybe brew Sunday morning... but I doubt it.

Shoot, I was there two days ago. I certainly would have stopped in for a pint or three. My wife has a relative there, I'll stop in when I visit them next time.

This year's Hopslam is not as good as in the past few years. I'd give it a 8.5/10 in the bottle, 9/10 if on tap.

Running low on homebrew, so I'm doing a double extract batch today. The Twelfth night stout from NB, and an attempt at a Terminator stout clone.

Beer Travel / Re: Hawaii - one shot only trip
« on: February 20, 2010, 09:57:57 PM »
The last time that I visited Oahu, I drank beer from Kona Brewing Company. I tried the Longboard Lager, Big Wave Golden Ale, Firerock Pale Ale, Lavaman Red, and one of the porters, but I can't remember which one. All of the beers were very good, but I remember the Lavaman Red being my favorite.
I mostly drank bottles, but my wife and I did visit the brewpub at the Koko Marina in Honolulu as well.
Hope that helps,
J

General Homebrew Discussion / Re: A Double Question - Most Interesting Beer and Best Beer of the Year
« on: December 30, 2009, 09:51:54 AM »
I didn't really get too crazy this year, so my most interesting beer was taking a 5 gallon batch of cream ale, I added some honey and boiled it down to 3 gallons making it into a barleywine (only 1.080). I have three bottles of this left, so I was thinking of entering it into the UMMO next month.
My favorite beer this year was the Caribou Slobber kit from NB that I fermented with Denny's yeast. It only lasted two weeks
, which is why it will be my first brew of 2010.
