Monday Night recap: “Nothing to do” edition
Usually we’re pretty busy on Monday nights, what with the brewing, kegging, and carrying on. We were supposed to be busy this Monday as well, bottling. But someone (I’m not going to say who, but his name rhymes with Neff Neck) carbonated the wrong keg in preparation.
Since all we had to do was keg our [...]
Monday Night recap: “Puppy fight” edition
Last night we shattered the record for the number of puppies attending Monday Night Brewing. Yes, that’s right. We had not one, but TWO puppies in attendance. After a brief sniffing and licking debacle (I’ll spare you the details), the puppies became BFF’s. There are even rumors that they Facebooked each other this morning. While [...]
Monday Night recap: “Cool that wort” edition
Despite a 2.5 hour long sparging debacle (our first attempt at a mashout), we ended the night at about 10pm. Thanks to Melvin. Melvin, avid homebrewer and self-proclaimed super genius, was kind enough to let us demo his chilling system as we think about upgrading our current setup. Blah blah blah, submersion pump in ice [...]
We build a new hop trellis. And no one notices.

We built it last Sunday, just in time for our hops to join in the race to the moon. They’re competing against [...]
MNB gets a new stalker
Well, well, well. Now we know what Britney Spears feels like. Because it’s only when you’re truly popular that you get the weirdest of all stalkers.
Yesterday I was alerted to the fact that there is now a @FakeMondayNight on Twitter. Whoever is behind the account not only took our Twitter background and icon, but he/she [...]
Beer wars: Travis gets a new website. It sucks.
A little while ago our mortal enemy Travis got himself a brand new website. I know what you’re thinking: But isn’t that like putting lip stick on a dead possum? Yes. A dead possum that can’t brew a decent beer.
And we’ll be the first to admit: we’ve given Travis and his merry crew of misfits [...]
Breckenridge Vanilla Porter, come on down!
There are some weeks that leave you craving a particular beer. The frigid Atlanta winter is upon us, and while it’s not as cold as the homes and hearts of some people, it’s still too dern cold for me. The temperature, plus the busier-than-usual work week, has put a craving in my belly. A craving [...]
