I mailed my labels in today. Thank you to everyone who participated in providing feedback. The clear winner was La Libertad, and Bangy Tangy was second place. But....a sentimental favorite of mine and my brother-in-law was the Gringo, so I decided to enter that as well. Why not? So...we shall see. I think my labels have improved over last year, and so that's a nice achievement and I feel good about that.
As for some other random things...I didn't get as much brewing done last week as I had hoped. Other things came up, and so instead of the 4 brews I intended to brew..which became 3...which in reality became 2 beers.....
But, the logistics didn't work out. I had intended to bottle one version of the Bangy Tangy, while brewing another version, and pouring it on top of the same yeast. But, I didn't have enough bottles to bottle the Bangy Tangy. Also, it wasn't done in the primary by Sunday and I also broke my hydrometer in my bottling bucket. I threw the bucket away because its been a long time coming, its from my original kit, so I could probably use an upgrade. Plus the possibility of glass, no matter how well I clean it out....a good excuse to replace it.
So right now the Bangy Tangy is still going, and so is El Muerto. El Muerto is a new recipe that I'm excited about, all organic and I'm using some Organic Pacific Gem hops, which I had in Fish Tale's IPA and was really impressed with. I think this version of El Muerto could be a winner. I liked the other versions, but I'm excited about the prospect of this new direction.
One final note...and I'll get into this more at a later post. Jeff came over both weekends that my wife was out of town and we consumed a lot of beer....including tapping the tap-a-draft of the beer made in his honor...El Jefe. Awhile back I bitched and whined about how my beers weren't shaping up to my liking and this is another example of why I'm an idiot. I'll review it in full later, but El Jefe is the shit. Josh called to say he likes it as much, if not more, than the Bangy Tangy, and thinks its awfully close to Deliruim. I think its a bit lighter, which is what I was going for. Its flavorful, refreshing, and at 5% abv, a nice session beer. I should have known that time would do this well. I say I need to be patient every damn time....but I just can't help myself from checking....at least I did manage to hold off on the Jefe and have another tap-a-draft bottle of it left.
Salud!

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a thing, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I make money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my web site to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in big initial investment.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started to get real money.
It's all about how to choose a proper partner who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the income with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
