Can't Wait

Post by MacMan » Fri Jan 13, 2017 11:57 am

Hey folks,

Google brought me here, who would have known. I'm local, been living here in NS all my life. I used to make "home-brew" back in the 80s-90s but gave it up for many years during the raising of my kids.

Now after making wine for the last 6 or 7 years , and rediscovering the craft beer scene here in Atlantic Canada, I am getting back into it. I have been looking for a Kegerator for a while as others have posted , bottling sucks , even though I still have Labatts' quart bottles and more Grolsh bottles than i can shake a stick at. Plus with a beer gun, hopefully I can drink from the leftover bottles after kegging. Found the Kegerator on Best Buy for 399.00 including the tank hoses and everything to get me started, now I need to start customizing because thats half the fun isn't it?

Looking to get into scratch brewing and can't wait to hopefully meet some of you folks on here.

Cheers :cheers2:

"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.
