Will do, Ro. I've heard that's not going to happen and they just made a very limited amount for draft. I'll keep my eyes peeled though. I think you'd love it. Huge nose, bright fresh hops with chewy cat piss thrown in. Minimal bitterness.

I've made many IPA's, saisons, stouts, etc...

This is my first attempt at a brown ale. The down side, my pc battery died and I don't have access to use my brewing program. However, this is my 25th batch of Homebrew, I believe I've done it enough to wing it accurately. Time will tell.

FBD was a mosaic while prepping for brew day. SBD is a fresh Sweetwater IPA.

Can't say I've ever seen a fermemter in a bucket of ice on bottling day. Was it crash cooled and you just wanted to keep it cold going in to the bottles?

2bd is a Big A IPA. This one packs a punch.

I used my burner to season my new jambalaya pot while drinking homebrew
Does that count?

Cold crash... Don't have a temp controller ferm chamber so I put the fermenter in ice chest full of ice a few days before. Gets down in the 30s pretty easy

No need to warm it back up before bottling....
