    Im fixing to brew up a scottish ale tonight with some friends. Still have a 6 pack of Mike Hess 8 West (formerly Juncundus) and some of my own Imperial Blonde named Chongo Blanco.

    Happy Drinking!

    An ice cold Corona on scortching summer day is a perfect match. No worries. B)

    My favorites are the Dutch brews. Grolsch, Amstel, Heineken, etc.

    I usually have a 1/2 keg of Heineken on tap at all times. Just got a fresh one last weekend. It's my favorite. Can't beat it for $125.

    Nothing like coming inside all sweaty after mowing the lawn on a hot summer day to a frosty Heiny! Ahhh!

    Russ man, they taste even better when they are free! I mean seriously quality beer is always nice...even better when it doesn't cost ya!

    I won't argue against that logic. Two thumbs up!

    Yeah I used Safale 05 so I shouldn't have an issue with a little bit of yeast activator in that Citra Wheat. I'm honestly going to go pick up the ingredients for that brew today XD!

    Did you end up making this brew?

    Not yet @Sami it got too hot to get anymore brews going. We are already at high 90s low 100s and cooling the house to be comfortable and doing it to ferment are two different things ha! I plan on it being my first brew in August.

    Only reason for the Scottish is the recipe was left over and my malt extract goes bad before I can brew again. :s

    Bad enough to kick the sisters! Wow that must have been bad.

    I attended the American canned beer festival over the weekend. Near endless 4oz samplers from over 60 brewers, it was a great time and got to try all sorts of amazing brews. I would list my favorites but they are all local with no distro out of the state.

    have you tried Brewing in a old fridge Cody? Williams brewing has some devices to help refrigerators hold a steady temp.

    I just never had room to do this so I stuck with ALE's and never made a Lager!

    Yeah I've been aware of the option but much like you the issue is room.

    STC-1000 works just as good (IMO better) and is about $10. Of course something like ESP-8266 with a db18s20 and a relay would be even cheaper AND programmable over WiFi. You could even set it automatically to adjust temperature if you're doing lagering. :)

    A decent local Kolsch from Four Peaks Brewery. The company actually got bought out by Anheuser busch for 4 billion smackers. That's a lot for a local brewery/resturant that started in 1997.
