    A lager dry hopped with Mosaic and Citra from Three Heads Brewing in Rochester while I rearrange some stuff in the cooler. Been a toasty day, so this is a comfy way to end it

    I get out that way once in a while. Used to love getting a sammich and beer at the Olney Place.

    Side note- I've only had one decent beer from Three Heads. It was they're Barleywine

    Let me know what you think of it.
    Hope it wasn't boiling when you opened the box. :(
    Better packing, right? :D

    Ever try their Baltic Porter? I love that beer. My favorite from them was the original recipe of Blimey, the English pale ale that made when they first started. Great beer.

    Have you heard about all the nonsense the Olney Place is going through with the Town of Barrington government?

    No injuries, 2 broken.

    The first was cleaning, transition from emptying out hot PBW or water, then filling with not hot enough liquid. CRACK! It was near the base, carboy gone.

    The second was laziness. Brewed, pitched didn't have airlock, stopped it up. Took home, didn't put airlock in. Next morning, didn't rectify. Later that day, BANG! I knew as soon as I heard it what had happened. 5 gallon wort pond in living room (tile floor) lots of mopping, some glass damaged ceiling sheet rock. No casualties except for my self worth.

    I use carboy carriers for the glass carboys.

    Holy hell! Grenading a carboy sounds like something out of a nightmare. Glad no one was next to it when it blew

    10 grams added at heat off. I don't think I had to tweak it.

    If not too late, you need to hit Great Lakes and Fatheads in Cleveland. Fathead was exceptional. Every one of their beers was very good or better. All were to style with no flaws.
