Hoover Tactical

These guys have an awful nice indoor range. I used it with a friend for the first time yesterday. She is somewhat new to handguns. She rented a glock 17. I brought a laser-equipped glock 31, a sig m11-a1 and a smith m&p 45c.

She is a big fan of the sig and the laser. Also, she is a fan of 9 mm and 357 sig. Not so much a fan of the compact 45. Next time I will tote a laser-equipped sig and a couple wheel guns.

Big smiles all around.

Great River Brewery

The west coast IPA is pretty tasty.

What I did today

Irish stout moved to secondary. Plinian Legacy bottled. Vandal Eyes brewed and in primary. All extract kits from Northern Brewer. Three more extract kits and then we will try a grain recipe. Oh yeah, washed bottles and took the labels off a few additions to the bottle family.

More gear

The new brew pot is pretty spiffy.

The Happy Birthday Homey Wheat

Is in the bottle.

We'll call this one ...

School's Out Stout. First one off the kitchen stove and on the burner. Note to self, self, do not walk away when it is hotter than 190. It will approach 212 in a hurry.

Bru Burner

Damn speedy is all I can say.

Impatient I am

Dundalk Irish Heavy that has only been in the bottle for a week.

I had expected flat and somewhat nasty but it is not bad at all. It will be so much better with age.
