Prepping to brew my black box challenge tomorrow. Getting a little worried this won't be ready in time.  :frazzled:

I generally have a hoppy beer kegged within two weeks of brewing, force carbed and ready to drink three days later.

I can turn this 5-6% hoppy beer (hopefully) around in less than 2 weeks. That's the best time to drink em ... young!

Well it's close to St. Patrick's day. So green beer is fitting right?  ;)

I brewed my black box beer Friday night. I started around 7PM after having to borrow some 2-row from Roger. Was pretty drunk by the end of it and it'll likely come out infected
