Nutes for biggest buds

I used to do a lot of work in Tualatin back in the late 90's. I still think Widmer Hefe is one of the best American hefes.

I used to work in Tualatin back in the late 90's. We'd head to the John Barleycorns McMenamins near Bonita and 72nd after work in the summer and order pitchers of Hef. Good times.

My brother isn't a hipster, but he loves his craft beers. The one good thing about them being expensive is it causes some people ot learn to control their intake. My brother limits himself to 2 beers a night and considers them more like a dessert, or a "special drink" for the night, rather than something to drink to get shitfaced.

I never drink more than 2 beers or drinks away from home. And when I do I don't drive. But I'll put down a sixer of IPA in a night in the safety of my castle. I refuse to be out in public hindered by the effects of alcohol. If something were to happen I want to be on top of my game. And then there is the fact that I'm an anti drinking and driving zealot. I'm the guy that will take someone's keys and not bat an eye. Do one or the other but not both at the same time.

Feed in some co2 and will be closer to that 35% but still not quite!

There ya go buy one of those bags of yeast that should help. A long time ago I set up my lung room as a fermentation room for I think it was 8 carboys full of beer. Don't think it made much of a difference especially since it wasn't a closed room.

I find the microbrew industry here in Portland ridiculous as well. I was drinking microbrew back in the eighties when it was just getting started. Now all these hipster brewers that retired from Intel are opening up breweries because they have the money to buy $50,000+ in equipment. They then charge $8 for some crappy sour in a 12 oz wine glass and all the other hipsters think they're drinking the best stuff ever. It's a joke.

50K is just a start. 10k a fermenter easy........that's why a lot of those guys go to contract breweries. Someone makes the beer and bottles it for you......you store it, market it and sell it........had a friend that had a brewery since early mid 90's. It was a German brewery he was trained in Germany and had great beer. But would rent out a fermenter every once in a while because it was easy money and he got paid without any risk since it was all sold to the fake brewer. Man I'd like to get my hands on a keg of his golden.

they do sell most of their styles in bottles. but at the brewhouse tastes much better.

i have my walking tour setup in denver so i hit most of my favorite breweries and then can stumble back to the hotel.

if you are ever in fort collins/asheville, New Belgium (fat tire) usually has about 5 on tap that aren't released to the public (just at the brewhouse only). sometimes it's a guest brewer, sometimes an employee brewer or just a style they want to try)
