Thanks for picking up some of the slack for those of us still in the low three digits.

Guinness? it's nectar of god.

Beer?

not just a beer. it's a gift to mankind from ireland :)

Now you need 5,000 plants :)

5,000 pints you mean. i think i had that already. 5,000 plants? not unless i win lottery and buy a good stretch of land in CA somewhere. lol

here's mud in you eye! down goes first pint. lol

Don't you keep them chilled all the time?  They'll go stale at room temp more quickly, you know! :)

they are pasteurized and in a can :) besides, they are already mixed with sour stout to give that tang. 

Congrats Pete. Have one for me.

Guess I'll have to put you on hiatus for a while, so I can catch up.

Wrong brand, but how about this beer delivery system for when you are laboring in the fig orchard and get thirsty?

Hi Pete,

Hi bullet08,
You should try Leffe brown - they are better.
Ho wait! I'll go fetch one - and drink it for you :)

jdfrance, i give that a try. i haven't had french beer after tasting kronenbourg 1664. love lot of things about france, that beer wasn't one of 'em.

If you are ever in NJ, I have Guinness on tap at my house!

Been a while since I have posted. glad to be back! Christy

always glad to read your posts, sweety.

PS, to get Guinness on tap is a very involved process, we learned as we went along,,,,, Since Guinness is not an American beer, it does not take the same beer gas as the US  do beers do, and ever bars that have Guinness on tap do not have the beer set up right. So, we had to purchase a "special mix" tank of gas to begin with that is different than US beers. The special Guinness gas pours slower than regular American beer gas.
Next, Guinness needs to pour out slower than any other beers to get its authentic flavor and taste, so we had to get an authentic handle/pour set up for the Guinness conversion on top of the gas conversion as well. So, Guinness is very difficult to "Americanize"  on tap authentically. We did not know at the time that we could not just buy a keg and put it  on a beer tap just like any other beer. So now we have spent the time to  go through the real Irish process of making sure the Guinness from our tap is exactly as it should be. We invite any of our Guinness/Fig friends to sample it! LOL! Bullett08, you are welcome anytime!
