new member in Moncton, NB

Post by clouno » Fri Nov 20, 2015 5:24 pm

Hello all,
I just joined the forum to meet like-minded home brewers in and around Moncton, NB. I recently moved back to Canada after a 3-year stay in the Czech Republic.

I have some brewing experience, mostly using malt extracts. I recently inherited my friend`s extensive amount of brewing gear and am a bit intimidated by the prospect of all grain brewing.

I currently don`t have a good place to brew, so please touch base if you have access to a good space and are interested in collaborating on making some good all grain brews. I have grains, hops, a mill, a brewing kettle with a propane burner, a wort chiller, a conical fermenter and a full set of corny kegs with a CO2 bottle.

All the best.

Dan

:welcome: brewing all grain isn't as hard as it probably sounds from a lot of threads. Ask all the questions you want here and everyone will try their best to answer them and help you learn the process. :cheers:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Hello! Would you make a Pilsner Urquell PLEASE!. Fascinating history. It was the original Pilsner lager brewed in 1842. Still brewed in the original brewery (now owned SABMiller of course ...is nothing sacred!) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilsner_Urquell" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Canuck posted a great picture of it from when he was in Prague, and he said it was delicious! Looks delicious too. Canuck has since opened a brewery (Hammond River) down your way, and I hear makes very good beer.

Any way :welcome:

I had a bash at making one. Inspired by that picture. Got a few medals for it. It was good.
