I was looking through some older brew pictures today and found these 3 year old pictures.
I am brewing using a future stair landing for my HLT and the MT is on top of Car ramps. I see my grape trellis that everyone laughed at as being to big for one plant. I see that I haven't planted much in the redone yard or finished the stonework on all my cement/block walls. I like the fact that I took time off to keep living and brewing through this long construction project.

About 1997 or so My Buddy Scott and I decided to brew 65 gallons of beer in one day.
This was about a year before I got my 55 gallon setup I believe. We put all the equipment that we had together and it took us almost all freaking day.
Still the memories of that day are of a great achievement between two guys that just wanted to brew more beer than they ever had before...

What a backdrop for brewing in the top photos, ELK!!
Scott, all those converted kegs and garbage can fermenters boggle the mind, though I swear the bottom left pic looks like you may have found a pot to pee in!

Alrighty...
ELK got me to thinking...
Right after I moved to my new "old" house in New Hampshire my buddy Maury and I brewed a big batch of Barley Wine. HOP Skotch Barley Wine, I still have a good amount of it aging and I know that Maury does too.
 
Also... During Big Brew 1999 My Friend Rich and I brewed a huge batch of Barley Wine to celebrate the fact that my wife had somehow gotten herself pregnant with twins...
That was a fun brewing day. The "Holy •••• It's Twins" Barley wine is long gone but the twins are here to stay.
 
 
Thanks ELK...

I always like to brew in groups. Gather a bunch of homebrewers and everybody makes a batch. This was from a 5-batch night back in '04. I'm the one with the ponytail, now long gone.

You might have better luck with links instead of embedded pics. Takes a long time to open already, and it will only get worse.  |

You can never have too many fermenters. Or too much stuff fermenting. This was after a 3-batch session when I already had a bunch of beer, mead, and cider going. It's hard to tell in this pic, but there are also buckets and carboys behind the boxes of bottled beer. You can see 4 airlocks sticking up. I believe there are 10 batches in all.

My kids help me sometimes. This is my daughter helping me brew and both kids helping me bottle.

This is from Big Brew 2001 at the Georgia Mountain Brewery. That's me in the Tie-Dye, and I will let Vance tell y'all who that shady character lurking on the right side of the photo is...

No starters that day. I think we pitched all the yeast Bob had at the store though. That's our lhbs owner holding the vial of WL. After a few beers it looks like from the grin.
My first and last Big Brew to date. Always a bad weekend cause there's 10 other things going on. |
