Well, I assume it couldn't have been <span style="font-style: italic;">that</span> cool, since I couldn't even get in.<br />$15 for 5 tastes, fine. Closing down entry at 5:00pm, not fine. $7 for regular beers at the races and having to wait a minimum 20 minutes, re-god-damned-diculous. SO nothing to report, and no pictures. Billy Idol didn't sound that great anyway, maybe he accidentally drank his peroxide.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/27554675-115576937793914606?l=bruuhk.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01020656206202956474noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27554675.post-1150951312716614572006-06-21T21:37:00.000-07:002006-07-07T10:42:51.583-07:00<span style="COLOR: rgb(255,0,0);font-size:180%;" >FIRST KEG DOWN!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"><span style="font-size:100%;">Stone Brewery had a VIP party for a Charitable Fundraiser, and of course me being a VIP, Kris and I were there.<br />As it so happened, my old buddy Chris Brill was in town, so we had him, Kyle, Jeff, and a Mysterious Girl over for a BBQ afterwards. A whole day of micros, ouch. Anyway, the inaugural Ballast Point IPA keg is finished, and I put my first kegged homebrew in to carbonate while we went to Maui.<br />Still waiting on my faucet upgrades too.<br /><br />I will try to get some pics up.<br />Don't forget you can subscribe to be emailed when new posts come out, and feel free to leave a comment.

Instead, they wasted 6 million on him to jump over walls constantly. At least he made the cool sound. <br /><br />I made that exact sound as I dispensed not one, but two beers simultaneously from my bigger, stronger, faster kegerator. The good peeps in the lab delivered my custom draft tower right on time. A slight shipping delay forced me to lie in wait for the delivery of my stainless steel connectors and faucet. <br /><br />Take a deep breath and behold its glory:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1903/2905/1600/kegerator%20open.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1903/2905/320/kegerator%20open.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br />A lot of blood, sweat, and liver damage when in to the making of this truly GRAND moment.
