Beer


Fermenting cream ale in the carboy and a sammy smith's taddy porter clone in the keg. a 5 1/2 gallon version of that glass carboy is what broke over my wrist. just had finished filling up that keg. this new beer should be good. spiked it with about a 1/2 ounce of warrior hops. the things had a 16.3% alpha acid rating. can you say bitter?

I was bartending this weekend and our bar is grannit topped with a wood rail all around it.

I had this huge bottle of Patron silver and was pooring shots. all the sudden the guys I was pooring the shots too start screeming dude,

I had barley tapped the side of the bottle on the wood and a chunck the size of a quarter popped out. Patron all over the barr. I saved a pint glass of it and gave it away all night,

frinking glass.
oh well. good to hear your ok, and that your brewing is back up and going...


nothing heals stiches better than booze.

yeah, booze sure does ease the pain! Thanks for the concern. for brewing beer, glass is the shit. easy to clean and hard as hell to scratch the inside, like plastic. only problem is its easy to break and well when it breaks...

my accident was the talk of the saftey portion of our weekly company meeting. pretty funny. lots of comments like so tried to kill yourself this weekend, huh.

My insurance might not even cover it. Unless I happened to pick an er that happened to be included in there network. on the bright side, at least it was water, not beer in the carboy!
