Stop in for a cup of coffee

[memike]

I hear that finding a good hopes for brewing home brew beer is the first step to getting it right, I keep threatening to brew my own but I have a couple friends that do it and have not took the plunge, I did not know you was a grower halifaxhops, I most likely forgot :coffee2:

 

[halifaxhops]

I will say one thing I have met many interesting people growing these. I never know what will happen. I have had a rolls pull up and also a mini van full of hippy vegans. Never a bad experience though, How my wife puts up with me know idea.

Mike If you take the plunge I will send you some hops, I have about 12 varieties. Just send me some homebrew, boy do I have some stories on that!

I bet you do , My friends take road trips together to buy deferent verities :glasses7:

If I do I bet you can help with choices I should start with :glasses7:

Cascade, Hard to mess it up, gives the beer a little bit of a citrus taste. What's funny I do not home brew. My neighbor and I were going to start but when people started to stop by and wanted to trade home brew for hops why bother. Had some really good and some really bad stuff. I would try it with your friend and see if you are into it, it can get expensive fast.

'morning, all... Heading out with my daughter to look at an '07 charger for her, potentially... She was in a ad accident about 10 days ago and her '08 Avenger was totaled.Thankfully, she walked away with only minor injuries.

Glad to hear she is OK.

Hey Toolman, what distributor do you work for? Just curious

Good morning! Not much going on around here. To rainy to do any thing outside. Or is it lack of ambition? Could be a little of both!

We have had such a mild winter that things are starting grow the daffodils are sticking up about 4" and the darn grass looks to be getting taller.

Can't say as I want to start mowing in February.

Pretty sure I had that a long time ago.

The other link is the old Red Lion Inn in Quakertown. Never had a beer there. I did eat there once about 30 years ago. Breakfast IIRC.

My first laugh this morning thank you :glasses7:

 

[halifaxhops]

It is slick here, first powdery snow, then heavy snow then rain then snow again. I am at altitude here and it gets really cold at night. The melt has nowhere to go since the ground is frozen. Took 6 tries to get my favorite car to the road yesterday we have a 30 degree incline at the top of the drive to the road. Need to get something to melt it all off, salt doesn't work to well because the water will refreeze at the bottom of it.
