Taking a break tonight
No brewing tonight, folks. Keep it sleazy.
Ah, glorious Monday
While we won’t be formally brewing tonight, we thought it worth posting this photograph submitted by loyal fan and lamb smoker, Tubbs. Bask in the manliness that can be accomplished when one dons a teal Monday Night shirt and pair of work gloves. Bask in it.
Monday Night recap: Hops for the Hopless edition
In addition to brewing a Belgian dubbel last night, we also strung up our hop plants, approximately 1 month late in the season. “Sorry, Messrs. Hops. We’ll try to do better next year. Now grow up your vines like weeds!” Do you know what’s a scary sight? Jeff with a saw.
He took it open himself to saw stakes to nail the twine down into the ground, or “assert his manhood,” as he told us. Fortunately no fingers were lost in the process.
Jeff was actually really good at threading the twine. Probably because it’s so similar to sewing. ZING! We had a great crowd last night, despite having very little beer. For which we apologize again. Sorry, we sincerely thought those kegs were full. We were also graced with the presence of Ale Sharpton ? Atlanta’s premier gangsta craft beer guru. Check him out.
And one of these days, we’ll get a real tap for our Blind Pirate Double IPA. The masking tape on the tap looks decidedly… not gangsta.
Thanks to everyone who came last night! We’re excited that the weather is finally cooperating.
Dubbel the Monday
Howdy folks. We’re going to play around with our Belgian Dubbel recipe tonight, so feel free to come by and make history with us around 8pm. Actually, that might be an overpromise. We probably won’t make history. But we will make some darn good beer.
Last minute update: BYOB tonight. Oops. That is our bad… we only have a schmeensy bit of beer.
No brewing this week
So hit up Hop City instead! Ask for the Monday Night discount!
And speaking of wit…
We’re going to be brewing one tonight. 8pm. Jeff’s house. We’ll supply the fresh ginger, you supply the grating of said ginger.
Come thirsty, bring your allergy meds.
This time, it’s my fault
Brewing is off for tonight. And most likely the week after tonight. Why? Because of me.
I’m getting married in less than 2 weeks to this one:
And I have realized that if we have a snowball’s chance in H-E-Double-Hockeysticks of pulling this wedding off, I need to clear my schedule. You may also notice a precipitous drop-off in the amount of blog posts over these next few weeks, as Jeff and Joel still don’t know that we actually have a blog. Shhhh. No one tell them, I want it to be a surprise.
Sorry guys, be back online and in person soon!
