We’re still here, people… if you are. This Captain still drinks beer and thinks beer all the time. If you’re out there, beer readers… if you want us back here… oh, it shall be so.

So the other night I went to an O.A.R concert with Action Jackson. I knew nothing of O.A.R. other than that “crazy game of poker” song, which is just fantastic… which always makes me thinking of a someone starting a fist fight and flipping up the poker table for some reason. Anyway, since I didn’t [...]

I can’t quite muster the courage to effectively write this post. Last night, at approximately 0230 PST, a loud, wet sort of pop announced the end of a hefeweizen that had barely begun.

Good afternoon, beervolk. Good? GOOD!? What’s so GOOD about it!? My stout… is… is… it’s stuck!!! That’s right I—Captain Beer—have a stuck fermentation! Oh, the humanity!
Did I shock the yeast when I pitched it? The wort seemed cool enough… did bacteria infect my precious fermenter? Oh dammit… dammit.

Friends, this weekend we brew our first dark brau* and good ‘ol Captain Beer is fired up about it. Our Belgian Wit came out wild and great, because we took the recipe and went nuts. This time? Lemme tell ya… I… like… may also be experimental. Dark beers should be more prevalent than they are. [...]
