  1. What the heck is Exile Brewing Company, Des Moines?
  2. @BadgerHillBroc best of luck!
  3. Iowa-based Hub City Brewing shuts down oakd.it/KeeAiv I'm not surprised, really.
  4. MPR Coverage for Last City oakd.it/JYhUbh via @mnbeer
  5. Video: “Bottle Cap Blues” oakd.it/JYhzp0 // SO unsafe. Was that a nail gun? Incredible. I just carry a bottle opener on me. Less fun.
  6. West Des Moines Hy-Vee… the old haunt. twitter.com/MikeBGP/status…
  7. @EssFresh haven’t had a chance to read through it yet - long car ride tomorrow - but it looks like a keeper. Lots to re-page through.
  8. @Elricmedia @EssFresh it’s the first issue of a new magazine called Mash Tun Journal. Great looking pics online. mashtunjournal.org
  9. It arrived already? I’m so excited! Thanks @goodbeerhunting. twitter.com/MikeBGP/status…
  10. @frankwambach looks like Two Hearted or Oberon. Close?
  11. @loganwillis Speckled Hen?
  12. I had heard that sake brewing was similar to beer brewing. This video seems to explain more of the "malting" process. oakd.it/K2ViN6
  13. @JasonBGP you're at @ElBaitShop? Stephanie is there somewhere. Say hi if you get a chance! I'll be down next weekend.
  14. I some Intelligentsia coffee beans home with me from Chicago. It’s almost too good to consider using in #homebrew. But I’m tempted.
