The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

selling stuff is a good feeling, I'm surprised at how quickly my wheels sold. Assuming that the guy buying the evo wheels comes through next week
 
I can't wait to get all the gremlins out of the wiring in my car. I think when the MSP got to 100,000 miles it decided to unleash gremlins beyond the ones in their last movie.

My parents surprised me today with an appointment at the Brew Kettle in Strongsville to brew a batch of my own beer. I'm pumped, but deciding which beer to make is tough!

I've got it narrowed to the Winter Warmer, Cocoa Porter, and Brown Ale...I think...

Edit: Happy Veteran's Day. I will be wearing a Freedom Auto Tee today!

When are you gonna start brewing, today?
 
Haha, I should've made it more clear. I guess I didn't understand how the process worked until afterwards...

I brewed today, and bottle it on Sunday November 27. I made the Cocoa Porter--ingredients included chocolate malt, caramelized malt, 1 pound of cocoa, barley, and two different types of hops. Oh, and light malt extract. Process took 2.5 hours, but it is really cool because you do everything yourself. There are a few workers there in case of an emergency and to help you along. In the end, I should receive about 72- 22 ounce bottles! It was a really neat experience!
 
That sounds awesome, James. I think my parents signed me up for a deal like that up in Cleveland some time in Dec as my birthday present. I'm more excited now that you talked about it a bit! That's a good bit of beer you're going to get!
