This is just a list that I refer to from time to time.

The Best Shit I Heard in 2016

OK, everybody relax. It’s finally here. These are the best albums I heard in 2016. They’re in no particular order. Endless Light O’Brother Genre: Alternative Sounds like: Pan-seared Mogwai served on a bed of Black Map with a side of Muse Standout tracks: Your Move, Deconstruct, Complicated End Times Sample lyric: “I saw the end of time, I […]

Caramel Hard Cider

Making hard cider is actually pretty easy. It’s like brewing beer except for the part where you brew the beer.

Blonde Lambic at 18 Months

It looks like the water in the trash compactor scene in the first Star Wars (Episode IV) when that weird snake thing pulls Luke under and tries to strangle him.

Make Something Cool Everyday

I’ve made several attempts over the years of doing something every day: taking a self portrait, recording a 1 second video, finding a box of money… the list goes on.

Strawberry Belgian Milk Stout, Part 3: I’ve Made A Terrible Mistake

I tried to make a Strawberry Belgian Milk Stout. I’m pretty sure it didn’t work.

Ring of Bones Imperial White Ale

A double strength Belgian Wit. A Blue Moon with more balls. It’s like a spicier Allagash White injected straight into your eyeballs.

Strawberry Belgian Milk Stout, Part 2: Secondary Fermentation and Kegging

In which I inevitably take things too far and possibly ruin a perfectly good beer.

Strawberry Belgian Milk Stout

I’m hoping for a sweet stout with some spiciness from the Belgian yeast and a tippity touch of strawberry flavor on top.

White Chai Ale

I’m not sure if I want to call this a White Chai Ale or a Chai White Ale or something else way more clever than that. Whatever it ends up being called, it better be F-ing good because I just spent all god damn day making it.

Rye Gose

A traditional Gose is typically brewed with 50-60% wheat, a small amount of hops, and coriander and salt for flavoring. It’s supposed to be a little sour too. You might think of it as a salty/sour Witbier. Actually, you might not cause you don’t know shit, but trust me.

The Wire RPG

Since there’s unfortunately not an 8-bit video game version of The Wire, some smartass created this video that shows what it might look like if there was.

Starting a Sour/Lambic Pipeline

I’m a big fan of sour beers. So I thought, why not set an unreasonable goal for myself and try to have a constant flow of sour beers fermenting so I always have one ready to drink.

Homebrew Log Jam: Part 1

I’m not exactly sure what a Homebrew Log Jam is but I needed something that sounded even more “backed up” than Homebrew Backlog since I’ve brewed like 7 or 8 beers since my last homebrew related post. I guess I’ll start where I left off.

What I Ask For Is Not Unreasonable

I am waiting for the day when portable computers become small enough that I can keep one with me at all times… And it should be easy to hook up to the telephone. I need to connect it to my home and laboratory computers. What I ask for is not unreasonable.

Unofficial TBR 2011 Progress Report

This is the unofficial TBR 2011 progress report. Well, the report itself isn’t what’s unofficial. What’s unofficial is my participation in the TBR 2011 challenge (because I didn’t make my list before the challenge officially started), but the report itself is actually about as official as it gets, being that it’s coming from me and […]

Your Band Name Sucks

Back in April 2008 I created a Twitter account to document the band names I’ve been coming up with.

Homebrew Backlog

Back in April I posted about brewing a Belgian Saison. Well, that one has since been bottled and drank. I think I had the last one a couple weeks ago. The kit I used suggested “cellaring” this one so I saved a six pack for as long as I could, although not in a cellar. I think the last ones probably tasted better but that might have just been in my head.
