Just drank a Hamm's for first time in over 40 years. Tall boys = $5.99 / 6er at Middlesboro Kroger. Not bad.

The liberal smell didn't bother me in the least at Yellow Springs Brewery. Tried Springer on my last visit and took home a 6 of the NE IPA pictured here. Not bad at all.

Great Lakes is close to downtown in an area that has rejuvenated, in part I was told, because of the brewery’s success. It has been years since I have visited Cleveland, but I believe the food was pretty good. Probably worth a visit.

I dabble. Haven't made any this year though. I normally participate in the Fall, so it's time to haul the stuff out and start cleaning.
Also, thumbs up on the Marzen. That's a great style for home brew IMO.

Do you bottle or keg?

You know, I've done both and kegging sounds a lot better than it ends up being. I sold all of my kegging equipment. It's all bottles for me now.

(Ale-81 returnable bottles work great BTW)

I picked up a 6 pack of oil can (tall boys) Natural Lights a few weeks ago.

Clearly, it's a placebo effect, but drinking it out of the retro Natural Light cans made it taste pretty satisfying.

It's absurd, how something THAT meaningless, can change the entire experience. But it most definitely DOES. LOL

Looking to brew a cranberry ale for Thanksgiving/Christmas.

Anyone know of a recipe or know of a commercial brew I could copy?

280 bucks and a lottery because only so many are made. One bottle of beer. 28% alcohol. Illegal in 15 states. Strong as hell for beer. No thanks.
