Cedar Rapids Brewing Society

Awesome meeting, everyone. It was really nice to come back, and I was surprised that my name was still on the roster, and my nametag still in the box!

I'd love to drink beer at a Holiday Bash! Thanks Potsi for helping me with my login.

I'll be sure at 5:30 then. I'm looking forward to it.

So a brew buddy and I brewed this weekend out in the cold. It was very fun to scratch the brewing itch again, and we even used the snowbank as a chiller. I made a Phat Tyre clone, which is bubblin' nicely, but Northern Brewer said that US-05 was fine, instead of that super special yeast that I belie...

I'm totally ready to bring/drink some cold ones.

Under Iowa Family Living, there looks to be something to do with beer, but you don't get to pick which category your entering. Just a number. Is that right? And it's also called Beer Classes. Seems weird. I guess the category is chosen when they send the forms.

I can find it in an earlier page, but when I log in to actually enter, it's not an option.
