Mastering Your Home Brew Recipe
When you’ve tasted a great tasting beer, you know it right away.

Can I make a kegerator?
Most of us beer enthusiasts have an extra refrigerator in the garage or somewhere around the house. It’s the phenomenon that takes place when our spouse has the dire need to get a new refrigerator. We might not think we need one at the time. But, now we know what to do with it. Make a kegerator out of it.

Beertaps Review
This is the opposite of the traditional black chalkboard. It's the more advanced whiteboard that college professors and corporations across the nation use for writing their notes and thinking out loud. If Einstein could have had this baby, we would have had the greatest beer a long time ago.
With each new recipe you try to brew, give it a name. Doesn't have to be special! Jack Daniel's batches were marked with No. 1, No. 2...on down to No. 7. The cleaning solution Formula 409 was treated the same way until they found perfection. You can do that too!
Amber Ale, Coffee Porter, Chocolate Stout are just a few of the things you can write on your whiteboard...
"Try this! Tastes good. It's a'right."
"My recent batch. Explodes in your mouth."
"Awful. Gut check. Drink it down. I need the keg back."
