    Default What Beer Do I Make?

    My most recent is an English Ale with a cup of honey. It has worked out quite nicely. I'm going to make another batch today. Whattya think?

    Hmmm....a light colored brew, yet with tremendous strength in its full flavor and alochol content.... clear...beautiful....with a flavor that is addictive from the first...bite.

    ....I'll work on that

    From start to finish, 1 month minimum
    1 - make brew and put into large plastic tub - add yeast - ferment for 1 week.
    2 - move into large glass bottle...let ferment for 1 week
    3 - move back to plastic tub - boil sugar (provides carbonation) - add both back to large glass bottle and immediately bottle - minimum of 2 weeks to carbonate. Best after an additional week or two.

    Initial supplies cost about $120. Each "kit" costs about $27 - makes approximately 50 bottles of beer better than most that you will purchase from the store. And you can make your own label...with Vaden's legs

    Cool

    I choose the irish stout.


    It's been awhile since I've made a homebrew myself. Definitely worth the investment in time and money.

    Oh yeah...I have one of those things. I've never felt compelled enough to actually try it, though. I use the "how many beers does it take me to feel hammered" approach to determine appropriate alcohol content.

    Vaden - iron-ons? What the Hell you talkin' 'bout, Villis?
    EDIT
    OHHHHHH....quite the observant minx you are. It's an old box for making t-shirts. I've never used it...always planned to make a shirt for my son. Maybe I should make a StripperWeb Beer Label shirt!

    TODAY IS OPPOSITE DAY

    I selected the Robust Porter...the one that got the lowest number of votes.....which is looking damned near stouty in its robustness.

    Thanks for playing. Party at my house in one month.

    An indian Pale Ale highly hopped and great alcohol content.
    Or a nut brown ale similar to a Samual Adams.

    Both are good for home brewing.

    There's a great microbrew in CA, Pyramid Apricot Ale...but maybe too "girly" for a Midwestern man.
    PS I HAVE to post this link on this thread, since Mojo has provided us with many, many hysterical comedy links....On the topic of alcohol:



    The writers of the site really put a lot of effort into making the list exhaustive, bi-Coastal, and entertaining. I was in tears of laughter because I used to work for E&J Gallo in CA...(makers of Boone's Farm.......and other fine fortified products.) Enjoy!

    "You'll find this beverage as often in a bum's nest as in the rock quarry where the high school kids sneak off to drink. This beverage is likely the most consumed by non-bums, but that doesn't stop any bums from drinking it! Our research indicates that MD 20/20 is the best of the bum wines at making you feel warm inside. "

    hahahaha...beautiful!

    It's funny, I'm German & Irish and I really don't care for beer.

    The only time I enjoy beer if any, is out on the beach or boat and it's got to be an ice cold "Corona" with a lime.

    I like "Rolling Rock" a little too....

    Yeah...there's nothing like the infamous beer that gives you a different flavor with every bottle.
