Shoot, might as well toss the UNC game in there too. Down by 20, take the lead, then end up losing by 5

the folks at le sabre were going on for weeks about the lighting at Cassell after we beat them

I got a text from a VT buddy last night who is getting married on Oct 23, scheduled perfectly between the two Thursday night games

Here in the Outer Banks I've heard we're looking at wind gusts in the 70-100mph range, strong thunderstorms, tornado possible, but not too likely.

Yeah, for the most part is was right around 67ish. Haven't gotten around to building a dedicated fermentation chamber yet, for now I've been using the swamp cooler method

I brewed that one in August, so going on 6-7 months so far. I'm gonna try to keep a liter or two for at least a year before cracking them open. Fermented around 66-67, sort of a subtle spiciness to the yeast. I've read a lot about this strain getting fruity, but I'm not picking up too much of that.

Here is the full recipe:

12.8lb Belgian Pilsner
1.6lb Munich
1.6lb Belgian Candied Sugar, clear

1.8oz Hallertauer (60)
.4oz Styrian Golding (30)
.8oz Saaz (3)

WLP500

mashed for an hour at 150

Application window for this one ended on the 7th...I would like to go to the conference, I believe I will be in Charlotte that weekend seeing the Dead and Company.

Like you, I rarely brew the same recipe twice...for this particular American IPA, I went with:

0.5oz Columbus (60 min)
0.75oz Cascade (20)
0.75 Columbus (20)
0.25 Cascade (10)
0.25 Columbus (10)

Then dry-hopped with a half ounce each of centennial, columbus and amarillo
