Thanks guys! If I can get my friend with the truck (I only have one) to help me get the freezer to my place then Saturday during the day might be kegerator conversion day. With beer.

I'd gladly let you borrow my truck if it wasn't company owned. If whatever you've got going on doesn't work out let me know. I can drive it for you wherever.

Free Saturday morning? If so, you might be my backup plan.

Possibly, depending on time and distance.

we plan on brewing 2 batches Saturday so let me know what you're thinking and I'll see if I can work it in. Would love to help.

The freezer is in BR.. near I-12 and Sherwood, and I could work with you on the time.

Oh yeah, I can probably do that. Get with me on Friday or something like that and we can figure it out.

My plan is to brew on Saturday but I could always be convinced otherwise. I could just wake up on Sunday to do it before the Super Bowl.

Any plans for the Super Bowl? Notice - I have a full kegerator.

Nothing that I know of really. Haven't talked about it with the SO yet, but I'll tell her about your beer problem.

I actually bottled stuff last night to get it out of the way. The Barley Wine wasn't moving so sent it away to the closet and replaced it with a Slightly Smoked Porter. :yum:

I visited this brewery about two years ago. I you like Racer 5, you should have it there. This Racer X sounds really, really good.

I had a couple at the BR pub when I was in Healdsburg. It was a solid beer.

Speaking of hoppy beers, this came up on Reddit today. Anyone have any details?

Yep, those wacky monks. Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout hides its 10% ABV well too IMO.
