beer question

[cmayer31]

There's a lot that makes a beer. Mostly it is classified on how it is fermented and what is used in the blend. Mostly they use barely, but rice, wheat, and corn are also used. There's some other stuff used mattering on location as well. A lot of flavor comes from how it is fermented with hops, water, and yeast. Here's a link that describes it well Wiwpedia - Beer .

Personally I love Black & Tans. It's a mix of bass light ale and Guinness dark ale. Can also be used with other light/dark ales. But I also enjoy my Cerveza's with lime, or a nice lager. Oh heck, I love most beer.

I have tried several different beers & end up choaking the sip down & trying not to puke, its horrid IMO. I'm into short, pure (Vodka) & mixed (Liquid Coke).. No juices as I'm allergic to most.

I am a beer snob and an Ale girl for the most part! Can't drink the mass produced junk like Bud and Molson's. Well, I can, but given a choice I won't. I like honey brown ales, Sleeman's in particular. We have a great little brewery up here. Their slogan is "beer worth freezing for" and it's true! My favorite is Cranberry Wheat Ale, made with wild Yukon cranberries! Delicious! I just bought a box of their newest flavor.."Discovery Ale", made with Fireweed flavored honey!

Stuart makes his own beer. There are many, many methods and recipes. He uses lots of hops, barley, wheat, berries and even chocolate in one of his recipes

The brewery only takes up one corner of the shop. He does lots of other stuff out there too! If the zoning bylaw had allowed a second storey, I don't think he'd come to the house very often though!

Muskwa is the taster! He always licks the keg spout!

LOL! Is there a"designated sled dog" back-up for the drunken husky?

[Twisterdog]

Bleck. Don't like beer at all. Give me a White Russian, tastes like chocolate milk.

LOL, Muskwa is retired so he doesn't need to worry about a back up, unless he wants someone else to keep his spot on the couch warm! I think the taste for beer is genetic. My Dad gave Hoodoo, Muskwa's son, a taste of beer once. For the rest of his life, Hoodoo would steal any beer can he could, every chance he got.

LOL! Must be a northern breed thing... my sister's Husky Yukon has her very own beer bowl in the living room. If anyone opens a beer in the house she will try everything she can to make you dump or drop your beer so she can get some. So my sister has a bowl in the living room just for beer because if you pour just a little in the bowl for her she leaves everyone's beer alone!!

Joyce, I'm no help because I'm a "Piss Water" beer drinker. Miller Lite tops my list! I just can't get into think lagers and ale, I've tried... but always go back to Miller Lite!

Is it allowed to ship some of that good stuff to the US?

I have no idea what the rules are around that! I'll have to look into that! Would have to be shipped in the summer or it would freeze solid though! Their website is www.yukonbeer.com if you want to check it out.

could you let the rest of us know when you find out I would love to find a beer I could drink, and the discovery and cranberry both look amazing

[Cincy'sMom]

Thanks. I emailed them.

Let me know what they say. I love Sam Adams Cranberry, but can only find it at Christmastime in the multi packs. I'd love to try the Yukon Cranberry!

That's a bit more than "a corner" it takes up!

Do The Boys "brew" 24/7?

How many folks does it take to Brew & Manage & Sell?
