    sporr → Pennsylvania Beer Enthusiasts: this red ale I brewed just keeps getting better and better. I racked my summer ale into the secondary the other night. That looked and smelled great. Hope it is as good as my first brew.

    sporr → Pennsylvania Beer Enthusiasts: I started a Summer Ale the other day. Added some extra honey to it just for a little kick. This is only my second time brewing and the differences between that first brew and this second one are just huge.

I had to take a peek inside my primary to see what it looked like. There is a crust over the the top of it and it smells like when my wife makes bread. So according to a buddy of mine that has been doing this for a little while, I'm on the right track. Yippy!!!

    sporr My Honey Summer Ale has turned out quite nice. Right now I have a apricot wheat in the secondary. I'm thinking about racking that one into another carboy at the 2 week mark for another week. Try and get it to clear up as much as I can before bottle time.

    sporr So far so good. Probably going to move this brew into the secondary fermenter towards the end of the week. Then I'm probably just going to go ahead and start another batch right away.

    sporr I am excited to try it out. I'm going to go the keg route. I would like to get one or 2 of the small 3 gallon kegs. But wow are they expensive. I can get a 5 gallon keg for less than half of one of those small ones.

    Mark: Very nice. I'm sure it will turn out well.

    sporr I'm doing a Irish Red Ale. It's from a Brewers Best Kit I got a while back at Mr. Steve's. I had to get a new pack of yeast but other than that so far so good.

    Mark: What kind of beer are you brewing?

  • sporr
    sporr I have my first batch of beer brewing. Still waiting for the bubbler to really kick in. My buddy in VA told me not to worry that it is kind of slow. He said that happens sometimes. I'll give it another full day before I start to worry.

Looks like I still need to get a brew kettle and some lids. The Irish Red I have should still be good to use. Everything in the kit is either vaccum packed or canned. Question is the yeast, not sure if it's any good after 4 yrs.

    sporr Hopefully this wek I'm going to brew my first batch of beer. Going to go the keg route, maybe the small kegs so I can bottle some and keg some from the same batch.

  • Mark Congrats South Carolina! The State House just approved the so called "Pint Bill" that will allow breweries to sell 48 ounces of beer to a person every 24 hours. No more tiny samples if you're wanting a pint - as long as the Governor signs the bill.

  • Virtual Craft Beer Tasting Club
    483 members
    This group is designed to share notes about beer, as well as tasting notes and suggestions and get to know beer lovers from all over the globe. Here's the idea: We have themed tasting. In advance, if possible, we will pick a Style of Beer we're going to taste, then we trade tasting notes. The tasting period will be over two weeks so we get an outpouring of related tasting notes, which will spur deep discussions.... Check the Discussion area for what the tasting will be.
