Home Brew?

Alkoholische, my dad, and I have been working on our own homebrew with some success.  My question is, do any of you homebrew and if so have you made anything even slightly similar to Auginstiner Hellas?  I figure with as much as you guys like the beer you might have run across something.  We can get Auginstiner bottles right down the street and they are rather tasty, though it is nothing like what we had over in the Father Land.  There are some Munich Hellas kits that I currently have my eyes on.  Any thoughts or advice?

Not Bad...

Never too early...

to start talking about 2013.

I'm sure we will have this discussion for months to come, so let's get it started now. Should we change our structure for the 20th Anniversary trip?

We have traditionally traveled on Thursday, arriving on Friday, and departing on Tuesday. Since this will be a milestone event, I propose a change in logistics. Let's make this a true event, with plenty of time to relive the past and explore new venues. I suggest we leave on Saturday, arrive on Sunday, and depart on Friday or Saturday, depending on your preference.

There are several advantages to this idea, the biggest of which is probably less crowds during the week! Maybe we can return to the days of spending more time at the tents. Remember, we will all be 20 years older and would enjoy the comfort of the benches.

Please opine.

Home Brew

BeTrunken just made two different types of home brew. Five gallons of a Bavarian light beer and five gallons of a dark Irish stout. Now in two more weeks we will be enjoying some very good home brew. I post later and let you know how good and inexpensive it is.

Having a cold bier at the Eagles Nest

Betrunken and Alkoholische enjoying a cold bier at the Eagles Nest.

We were really happy to meet der kubaner and his son at the airport, and running into Chuggar, Barleyman , and Barbus at the Augustener. It would have been nice to sit down with everyone and enjoy several biers and exchange stories. So much to do so little time. The good thing is there is always next time.

Obersalzberg, The Eagles Nest

Climbing the Alps at Hilters Eagles' Nest in southern Bavaria on crutches just 6 weeks after breaking my hip / femur. I must say I need several biers for pain management after this task.
