Thanks man! My wife and I just bought a house outside of D.C. so I'll have more room for storage than what we have now. I'm stoked to start brewing again; it is fun! Bob I will let you know if I have any questions about brewing. Thanks man!

I've heard it before, but its always fun to hear. You can totally buy the stuff off the net. My local shop's website sucks though. When I grab stuff off the net I usually use <a href="http://www.northernbrewer.com" rel="nofollow">Northern Brewer</a>. They seem to have a good selection and a good set of recipes. I've been meaning to spread out a little bit and hit up <a href="http://www.williamsbrewing.com" rel="nofollow">Williams Brewing</a> or <a href="http://www.midwestsupplies.com/" rel="nofollow">Midwest Supplies</a>. I think all are decent options and I'm sure there are more. Let me know if you need any help getting back into it! I personally love doing it, just wish I had more space in my new digs here in Portland to do it. I was fermenting 4 to 5 beers at one time when I had the space...Now I have to drink up a batch before I have the room to store bottles correctly... Mike Bob,

That, and a lot of IPAs don't burn too clean- if you know what I mean! LoL. I used to brew beer with my friends back in high school when we couldn't buy beer. The beer we brewed was anything short of good but it got us a buzz; which is what we were more looking for. I want to get back into brewing again though. I'm trying to save up and get all the supplys and equiptment I'll need. I'm looking forward to coming up with some recipies. Where is your brew store located? Can I order from it online? I stumbled across this site when I was trying to show a co-worker the Oberon ale. I am currently working on a site that is similar to what you have here. Maybe once I have it up we can share links. OK, Bob The heartburn is a killer with hoppy brews, for sure. That, and a lot of IPAs don’t burn too clean- if you know what I mean! LoL.

We have a brew store here that has over 1200 different brews from around the country. I'll put it on the list and see if I can't find it! Thanks for the suggestion. I really like Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat in the summer times to. That is a solid session beer. Totally forgot about that... I don't drink much for IPA's. I've actually started to drink them a little more. My wife doesn't drink much other than IPA's right now. She loves the hops. Personally, I don't get it. However, there is a local pub here that has a nice, mellow IPA that I enjoy. They don't over hop the shit out of it though. Out in the west, a lot of pubs put WAY to many hops in their beer and I end up with heartburn after a beer or I just get a mouthful of a soapy like flavor...Its disgusting. You do any homebrewing? Mike Bob,

That's what I like a Oberon; I seem to not have any issues downing the 6er! As far as other summer beers go I also like Sweaty Betty from Boulder Beer. It's a nice American pale wheat ale that goes down smooth on a hot summer day. If you've never tried it you should seek it out. I used to strictly drink IPA's or pale ales during the heat of the summer but as I've gotten older I've grown to appricate the wheat ales. Unfiltered wheat is also good but they sometimes fall under the 1 or 2 then moving on catagory. Cheers! Bob I hear you on the 1 or 2 then moving on.

It is a fantastic beer. Once the summer begins again, I'll be on a search for some more beers that are like this. Deschutes Twilight is another brew that I like to session on in the summer time. Honestly, I haven't found a lot of good session beers in my day. When I sit down somewhere, I end up ordering one of everything just because most of them are good for one, maybe two, but then the flavors get over done and I must move on. Do you have any session brews you like? Mike LOL. It is a fantastic beer. Once the summer begins again, I’ll be on a search for some more beers that are like this.

Do you have any session brews you like?
