About: I remember my first beer...actually, I don't. It was probably something horrible like a Coors light and I'm glad I've forgotten. My experience with beer has come full circle. Originally I gave up on beer because I thought it was all crappy lagers. One day in 2002, I happened upon a little deli called Hollingshead in Anaheim, CA that just happened to have a vast array of "crazy" beers on tap I had never heard of. I dug the look of the STONE IPA handle and tried it. My life has never been the same since. I was in love with hops, grains, and the amazing beauty of what beer can really be.
I love bold flavors and extremes. Belgiums and homebrewing my own beer.See Authors Posts (76) | Filed under: Homebrew, News
White Lab’s 3rd annual QC Day allows home brewers to send in two beers to be tested for an overall microbiological analysis, IBUs and total VDK. Brewers learn about their beers and quality control issues at an affordable price of $129 for two beers, saving about $500.
The QC Day testing will conduct tests aerobic bacteria, alcohol, anaerobic bacteria, color, density, IBUs, Real Extract, total VDK, wild yeast, microbiological analysis overall, microbiological analysis by test. Also included are the new tests that were introduced last year: Calories per 12 oz, pH, and real and apparent attenuation.
The deadline to order this once-a-year offer is Feb. 5. White Labs will ship out boxes Feb. 5-6 and will need them returned no later than Feb. 18. Final reports should be sent to breweries by mid-March.

That is sweet! A must for when we start getting close to public and doing up labels.
