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) |

MMMMM homebrew... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beer3.gif)
I'm enjoying one of my oatmeal stouts right now. My current dispensing system is 2 3 tap towers. Right now I have a variation of TopDon's (are ya here man?) California Ale An Oatmeal Stout, a Red Ale, a super-good Porter (almost out), and a little bit of Butte Creeks Red left from a party I threw a while back. I'm going to re-brew the same recipe porter and try making my first Java Stout within a week or so. I also need to brew up a wheat just so I have a nice variation of styles available. If any one wants a light lager I live a hundred yards from a liquor store (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) and there's no reason brewing a pale in Chico (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) As far as my supplies go, I get just about everything from "The Home Brew Shop" located on Nord Ave. in Chico. Dawn (the home brew shop owner) keeps a pretty good supply of grains and hops. We should organize a 914club home-brew beer taisting get together one of these days. There seems to be plenty of us around that brew our own. -Kevin |
