OT: Whatcha Drinkin' II: Another Round!

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Good idea! Currently drinking a sidecar. Had a couple homebrews during the game- a Smoked Porter and a lousy but drinkable pumpkin beer that I'm trying to get rid of. By Saturday though, I should have a Red Ale just barely ready (currently carbing up in the bottles) that I have dubbed "Bunch of Jerks Hurricane Red". Tasted promising at bottling, so here's hoping it's not an insult to our wonderful jerks.

I’ll eventually get back into home brewing. Took a break when our 2nd child was born, but I was into in pretty hardcore. Grind my own malt, keg my beers—always had two 5 gallon batches on draft. Ah the good old days. My brewing stopped the day my (then) 1 yr old son threw 3 crayons into my fermenter just as I was getting ready to pitch the yeast.

Wax is food safe, isn't it? I woulda pitched anyway. Worst case, it turns into a sour.

Oh I fished the crayons out and fermented it, but it just highlighted that things were getting difficult. Really hard to commit to a 7-8 hr brew day and ask my wife to watch the (then) 1 yr old and 4 yr old. I’ll be back. It’s one of my favorite hobbies.
 
Sol. Thought of getting a Corona but cheaped out. Didn't cheap out enough to get the store label variety "Sombrero".

The last Corona in the store. Really, the campaign is working like charm.

I would post a pic, but the server refuses to handle 2.5MB photo.
