^^^^^^^^Where you live at Andrew???? I think I want to try some of that homemade brew. I'm a "connoisseur" of beer..........so is my hubby. Welcome aboard dude!!!
Thanks!
I'm all the way up in Pennsylvania, so we're not exactly close enough for a quick drinking trip.
Currently on tap: 4 gallons of a stout that I made using an old English recipe which includes lactose for a sweeter taste... It was originally brewed for pregnant women! I also have about 1 gallon left of both a nice creamy Belgian red and a hoppy pale ale, 2 gallons of a crisp English pale ale, 3 gallons of a plain American-style beer that only gets better with age, and 5 gallons of a rocket fuel-like Belgian "Tripel" which was fun to brew but a chore to drink. The alcohol content in that is a blistering 13.5%, but I used a weird yeast that imparted some very peculiar flavors into the brew.
Hit me up if you ever want to chat about beer. I love talking suds.
That sounds great, Andrew!!!! I love talking beer. Maybe we need to start a thread on it in the "off, off, off the beaten path" of this board. We got a great Micro-brewery here in Little Rock, Arkansas, called "Diamond Bear Brewery" and they make some fantastic tasting ales and beer. BTW................are you Polish??? I am and we love our "piwo"...."peva" pronounced, for beer.
Welcome Andrew! I have a cousin whose name is Andrew
"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."
"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."
"I'm Joe English and I'm from Glasgow, Scotland." xD

I swear that I've had Diamond Bear before... I'm thinking it was a holiday beer, but looking over their website I don't see anything like it.
Yes, I am Polish (great-grandparents on both sides of my family came off the boat between 1904-1909 and we've had an unbroken line of Poles marrying other Poles since). My username comes from a translation of my chickenscratch handwriting - when I sign my full last name it ends up looking like Szyzk so I just use that on the different forums I frequent.
^^^^^^That is too cool Andrew!!! Welcome aboard my fellow Polish Cousin!!! I'm Polish, too, from both sides of my family tracing back to the 1700's. And my name before getting married was "Jaworski". And my dad's dad came over here from Poland around that same time, maybe a bit later, through the whole Ellis Island thing!!! This is tooooo cool!!!!
A community of the polish is forming! Never been to Poland... but I am russian, and Polish is very similar to russian All I know in Polish is the kolorowiye jarmarki song by Marila Rodowicz , [i know i spelt it ] I made a song once about Lech Walensa.... My dad loves Polish Vodka, as in Zubrowka!
So welcome. Szyzk

I can trace back to the early 1700's also, but from there the trail goes cold.
I have all of the original paperwork from my great grandfather on my mother's side - he left Warsaw (alone!) at age 11 and travelled via boat to Rostock, Germany where he worked for 8 months (I have his stamped working papers) so that he could afford a trip into France and then to America.
