One of the guys from Surly stood up and gave a little speech. What I took out of it is that we shouldn't expect them any time soon. They are going to make appearances like this in Iowa from time to time but no word on distribution. He said they tried expanding to Chicago and Wisconsin and had to pull back from each when they couldn't meet demand. They are back in Chicago now. I think the truth is that they are just putting out feelers in case this new brewing operation can finally meet demand.
Sipping on my Amber Ale tonight, enjoying a nice pipe smoke. Have a Mild Brown ale kegged, waiting to go on tap, a Zombie Dust clone fermenting another Amber fermenting, with the Amber on TAp, a basic IPA on tap and a Vienna Lager, from a local brewpub on tap as well. Finally getting that pipeline built back up after this brutal winter.
Anyone who's a homebrewer and enjoys a nice Amber Ale, I can't recommend this one enough. I've altered the recipe a bit (on the last page) but it's a great easy drinking beer.

Love spotted cow. My favorite part of our yearly trip to the Dells. I still wonder if the mystique would change a bit though if they ever went regional. Definitely one of the best summer sippers I've ever had though.
Brewing this Zombie Dust clone tomorrow: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f69/three-floyds-zombie-dust-clone-303478/
Picked up some Kalona Brewing Sucha Much. My second mini growler. I thought the first was outstanding other than a little flat since they distribute in growlers.
Also have some 8 bit to wash it down.
In other news I had lunch with a guy this week that introduced himself as a beer snob. I said hey me too, what do you drink. His reply "Bud Select"

For home brewers: What do you guys use to filter your beer? Or what tips can you give? My buddy and I just got done with letting our bottles sit out, and it taste good, but there were yeast particles sitting on the bottom. It's a brown ale and isn't suppose to be unfiltered.
Pour all but the last quarter of an inch or so in a glass. All the sediment will be in the bottle and none in your glass.
