Welcome back...Kids are great. When is he getting his first tattoo?

Yeah good luck with that. LOL

Brewing still going good? We are going to finish the basement in about a month and then I get to build a bar. I'm doing a five tap tower, 3 co2 and 2 nitrogen. I;m currently out of suds but am ordering stuff to make an esb, pumpkin ale and a honey wheat.

My old lady is expecting our fourth in mid-sept. So I'm planning on beer for October.

Well then congrats to you!

Brewing's been slow thanks to the aforementioned humidity. Just finished the mash on a dry stout. I usually do a no-sparge brew on days like this, saves a ton of time. Kegged an IPA two days ago. I got a kegerator that holds 6 kegs running off one 20# CO2 tank and I'm able to ferment 15 gallons at a time. Still working at the homebrew shop on the weekends. Recipe I'm brewing right now cost me $15.

Planning on doing my first lager soon. Thinking about either doing a Bohemian Pilsner or a Baltic Porter .... or both. I, too, thought of doing a pumpkin ale with my porter recipe as the base beer.

Welcome back...Kids are great. When is he getting his first tattoo?

I'm gonna say 21 ... maybe earlier, depending on what he wants. Second tattoo is gonna be my face, though ... on his hand.
