Never had 1919 or heard of it for that matter. I'm with ya on the Barq's and IBC though. A&W is still my favorite store bought root beer. There is a local joint here in town that makes their own root beer. It's good stuff. I remember Dad and I making a run out to "Dukes" just to bring home a gallon of root beer. Good stuff....

If you can, order me two cases. I wouldn't mind a case of the longboard, also.
And I don't care if it was brewed in Portland, I've had a pretty good version of firerock that was brewed in Chicago in a former jeeper's garage.
At this time it looks like I will bring a keg of Belgian Witbier
Literally, "white beer," this Belgian wheat beer got its name because of its cloudy haze (it's actually straw-gold in color). The smooth mouthfeel, grainy flavor, and massive head retention of wheat malt meets dry and phenolic Belgian witbier yeast and the tart, enticing character of coriander and bitter orange peel – very complex and delicate. An appealingly crisp, dry, and refreshing alternative to generic warm-weather lawnmower beer.
and tonight I brewed what is supposed to be a clone of the Sam Adams Boston Lager. It should be ready in plenty of time for WF. I may also bring partial kegs of whatever else I have left of the four I am currently drinking from.

Not too surprising. If they already contract out brewing, another one isn't that much of a stretch.

I secondaried the Sam Adams clone yesterday, it was tasting good warm and flat, so it should be excellent cold and carbonated.
I also brewed a Porter using a different technique. Since I wasn't sure it would work I also added some additional fermentables, and wound up with an O.G. of .074 which could be interesting if it ferments out properly...
And I ordered and received kits for Oatmeal Stout, Scottish Wee Heavy, and RyePA, one or more of which should also be ready for WF.

John, the KBC is usually some pretty good stuff. I'm sorta partial to the Widowmaker Black Ale. I haven't found a clinker yet.
One thing's for sure: KBC *KNOWS* their market. They've got good beer, cheap, in a college town.
97XJ2
February 8th, 2010, 10:25
The KBC could be had in either cans or growlers. Although they only can their "Big 4" (Pickaxe Blonde, Redjacket Amber, Lift Bridge Brown, Widowmaker Black) but usually have much more on tap.
I would actually be able to get this fresh off the tap on Friday (the 5th) now as I have a friend coming from Houghton to Point to meet me. As far as getting growlers, I wouldn't make one pay for them if they didn't want to keep them. But it seems most places will fill a growler as long as it has the Surgeon Generals warning on it for alcohol.

What do they get for a full growler? I like to have an assortment of growlers so when I bring homebrew somewhere I can keep track of what's what. And it looks like a couple of my Moab Brewery growlers have gone missing.
I would like to try their oatmeal stout but it doesn't look like they have that now. And if Jeff says the black ale is good, I have to try that, and maybe the IPA...
When would you need to know what to pick up?
I secondaried the experimental porter, gravity was 1.016, taste was excellent.

Considering an OG of 1.083, 1 oz. of bittering hops, and no aroma hops, I'd expect it to be very malty. Al of the Scottish styles I've tried tended to be sweet or malty, with little hop presence.
I should think about stopping by Flat Earth Brewing on Thursday to see what they've got interesting right now. I've got 2 FE growlers, I'll save one for you, John.

That's very reasonable. Kona brewing charges $22 for a full growler, thats more than a 12-pack. I'll probably have you pick up 2 or 3 depending on what's available at the time. I can paypal, or pay cash at WF.
Brewed the Scottish Wee Heavy tonight, but I don't think it will be true to the style, other than the 1.085 OG. :D
Added 2/3 oz of Yakima Magnum to the oz of Northern Brewer for bittering, 1/2 oz NB and 1/2 oz Tettnang for flavor, and 1 oz NB for aroma.

February 11th, 2010, 06:53
I guess there was some kind of suit between The Downtowner (another local establishment, offers all kinds of beer and alcohol as well as food) and the KBC, this was because the KBC was cheap! 2.50 is what a bottle of Bud might cost at the DT. I don't know if the settlement included not selling food, but I know it dictated the KBC's closing time. 10 pm S-W, 11 pm R-Sat. All they have is their own beer and peanuts, you are free to order in though.
When you have a growler refilled it's 7.50, so its like getting a pint for free. Just check the website for their current "on tap" when we come down to that last week and let me know.
Total growler count thus far is ~5 :D

Well, I kegged the Sam Adams clone the other morning. Tasted a little wierd, until I realized I had just brushed my teeth.:D
Had a little more and it tasted great. It should be nicely carbonated for WF.
So far, I've been able to restrain myself from the wit, so I should have at least a few gallons of that, and I'll most likely bring the porter which should finish out at 7.5 to 8% abv. I don't think the wee hoppy heavy will be ready, but it's a possibility, too.

You should be fine. Even if it gets somewhat warm, you can still cool a keg back down and it will taste just fine

Oh yeah, I would love to try some of that.
I kegged the porter the other day, it's just a little over 7%, and yummy. I want to get it well carbonated, should be like a nice creamy root beer.

Then there's Beer Thirty Light (and Ice), for about $10 a thirty rack

one does one doesn't...
the one that does is only cause the dealer put a brand new one on it last year with some recall...over 160k and it got a new cat...whatever

mine doesnt either. gotta love Indiana's no emissions testing. My jeep would never ever ever ever pass inspection if I still lived in Massachusetts. I can think of 20 things off the top of my head that would never allow the XJ to be registered there.

BTW, found out at the Homebrewer's Club potluck last Friday that all of Kona Brewing's bottled products are brewed in Portland [supposedly.]
Thought I'd add a few comments before this forum is archived.
The Kona that Josh brought me was brewed in Portsmouth NH, and it's at least as good as what I've had that was brewed in Kona.

The Keewenaw Black Ale was good, the IPA was great. I'll definitely stop in there next time we're up there.
And I'm adding the correct keg connectors to my jeep toolbox so the next time I forget my regulator assembly, it won't be a three man job to pressurize the kegs :dunce:

:D It's not..... and if you're interested in going, register soon. The local homebrewers all say it's well worth going, and it also sells out every year.
