A Guide to Strange and Unique Beer

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

One of the greatest benefits of home brewing, and of the golden age of micro brew that we are currently living in, is the ability to create new and unusual brews.  The freedom that comes with experimentation in this realm knows no bounds except those of one’s own imagination and ability.  With practice and planning, even these limits will increase, as the breadth of knowledge in these fields is naturally increasing.  As the golden age of the micro brew expands to even more unique and inventive realms, we are even seeing the list of strange and unique beer that is commercially available expand.

When planning a camping trip, most people remember to bring the tent, the sun block, and the sleeping bags.  But many folks forget that special addition that can make the trip all the more enjoyable after a long hike: the home brew!  Most camping trips can benefit from some home brewed refreshment, whether a small hike or a full-blown lake fishing trip!  With the advances in home brew serving technology these days, it can be simple for friends, families, or couples to brew up a fine camping trip!

Kegerator Giveaway Contest Update

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

I wanted to let everyone know how great the kegerator contest is going. I have received over 1000 entries in less than 13 days. I’ve received emails from troops in Iraq, teachers in Ohio and homebrewers from all over the U.S. This is really exciting to think that someone will actually win this keggerator and someday be pouring a cold one from it.

I also wanted to clarify that I have the option to pay or not to pay the shipping on the prize. I put that in the contest rules just in case the winner is in Hawaii or Alaska, but most likely I will pay the shipping if the winner is inter-continental since I want the winner to really feel the joy of a completely free kegerator.

Old Speckled Hen

So, last night I hit my local beer, wine and spirits specialty store and grabbed a bundle of Old Speckled Hen. Now I’ve tasted this before a few years ago when I was trying to become a B.B. Rovers 101 Club Member. To become a member you have to drink 101 different beers from over 300 beers on their menu.

Brew Comes Home

Brew Comes Home

A friend of mine recently asked if I would like a puppy for free. "Hmmm… free puppy?" I said. "I guess." It’s hard to pass up something free and even harder to pass up something free and cute like a Golden Retriever puppy.

I brought the little guy home and appropriately named him "Brew". He has been a little hell raiser since day one, chewing on anything below knee level and wreaking havoc on all the shoes and furniture in his path. This little brew master has a lot to learn about proper home bar etiquette. He is only 8 weeks old and does not quite understand that the bathroom is outside and not the living room floor, not unlike some friends of mine.
