Hello fellow teeners and homebrewers. My supplier "Shrine of the Brew God" in Costa Mesa, CA went out of business a year or so ago and I have not found a suitable replacement. I tried a few kits from Williams and a few from Homebrew Heaven, but I have not been happy with the results. I like newcastle stlye beer, or a good wheat beer - like pyramid, but NOT wydmers. Any suggestions? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer3.gif)
For others interested, I have been drinking Gem of the Sea pale ale available from Beverages and More. Apparently, it is a microbrew from San Diego. In any case, I get the five gallon Keg (only $32) for the converted fridge next to the 914. Its a very drinkable pale/red beer. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) |

Ahh brewing beer is a great hobby.
I have a book that has the recipe for Newcastle Brown called "Brewing Beers Like Those You Buy". If you can't find it I could get the recipe but the book is kind of fun. For those thinking about getting into brewing think about a keg set up as well as bottling. I got tired of cleaning bottles and then all the filling. Even with 22oz bottles it can be a PITA. I like to do both with rotating batches. Plus it's really cool having your own beer on tap. Have been doing the Partial Grain thing for a while but need to step up to all grain. I have an old keg that has been waiting for me to get around to cutting it in half. I'll say it again " Relax have a homebrew" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) |
