Beer!

[SeaHawksHuddle]

Okay. Who's a beer freak here besides me (I brew my own)? I just got back from Beveridge Pub Place in West Seattle and they had a special night featuring Georgetown Brewing Company. I love Manny's Pale Ale, but tonight they were feature a cask of Chopper's Red Ale, which was mighty tasty, and also the "world premiere" of Lucille's IPA. Sooooooooooo tasty. Mighty fine beer. Both Manny and Roger were there (the co-founders/co-owners). Super cool guys that loved talking about beer and brewing it. Roger's Pilsner is also fantastic. So much a superior beer compared with other lagers.

Support your local breweries! Who else is a beer freak/homebrewer?

No Beer? Well, what do you have?

I would drink beer any day of the week over most other alcohols. Love me some nice cold beer on a hot day! Can't wait for Summer!

 

[D Hawk]

Crown. Rocks. Bliss.
Single malt. Rocks. Expensive Bliss.

I'll take a well built beer over hard alcohol any time. The tastes are far more complex from good beer.

Pyramid Hefe...

Man, Crown...My uncle was the VP of Segrams so I used to get a big bottle of Crown (first tap of the batch) every year for my birthday..Let's just say my 21st was a good day....

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

If you like Pyramid Hefe, watch for Alpine Hefeweizen. Best hef I've ever had. It's from a small brewery in Oroville, but you can find it sometimes - Elysian Fields had it for a while.

Hit up the Oregon Brewers fest in the July and also the Holiday Ale fest last month. It was off the hook. Drunken good times. Busted my blackberry and a pair of Armani shades, but all in all was a great time.

 

[Seattlehawk94]

Beerfest is the freaking BOMB! Love it! So many beers, so little liver...

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

The Granddaddy of 'em all:

Great American Beer Festival

Only issue I have with the GABF is they give alot of awards to macrobrews which royally suck...

 

[SeaHawksHuddle]

So I just fired up my new system for the first time. I mounted 4500w 240v heating elements and temperature probes in kettles. Then I built a control panel consisting of relays and switches that are ultimately controlled by a small processor and connected that to a WiFi adapter. I can control my entire brewing system from my iPhone via a web interface. Pretty slick. Glad I didn't electrocute myself.
