Re: Meet Kate the Great

Nice, didn't know you did one, will be sure to read through your post. How was the blowoff situation with your ferment? As with almost all my beers done with a healthy starter it was a solid blow off. I actually had to turn my fermenting cube done a couple of degrees from normal the fermentation wa...

Re: Brü Grill & Market

How kid-friendly is it? Not that taking a 2- and 4-year-old to a restaurant is ever a pleasant event, it's a lot easier than getting a babysitter... Need to know whether to plan this as a family outing or as a "date night" with the wife... BTW if anyone's in the area for it, let me know a...

Re: OC Beer Society 'Afternoon of Sours'

I am not but enjoy the venue, it's at a really cool company that does high end home electronics (AudioVisions).

A bunch of my beer geek friends work there and had a big bottle share there a few months back.

Here's a link to where you'll be drinking http://www.avisions.com/portfolio/showroom.aspx.
