About:
I'm from Southeast Missouri. I brew beer in my backyard in Harlem. I also host private beer tastings for Tapped Craft Beer Events.
Favorite foods:
Craft beer, barbecue, étouffée, sushi, fried chicken, and oyster po' boys.
Last bite on earth:
Arthur Bryant's ribs washed down with Fantôme Printemps.

HLT: Hot Liquor Tank - the cooler, pot, or vessel you use to store your brew water.
MLT: Mash/Lauter Tun - the cooler, pot or kettle you use to steep your grains in water (mashing) and to separate the resulting sweet wort from the spent grains (lautering) prior to the boil. I can't think of a single homebrewer I know that has separate mash and lauter tuns. My MLT is a 10 gal. Rubbermaid cooler with a stainless steel false bottom

@winternutt Matilda's in my year-round rotation.
@LKM I'm on the lookout for Underdog Atlantic.

Patron Silver is better-than-average tequila at a premium price. It has fantastic marketing and brand recognition, but you could do better for less.

For me, at this particular point in time, it's probably fresh Czech pilsners and German lagers that don't taste like cardboard after taking the slow boat across the Atlantic. Something that hasn't been marred by extended time in green bottles. A trip is in order.
@rhallen OK, I'll bite. You're the first lambic fan I've ever seen say he's not impressed with Cantillon. What doesn't do it for you? What's your lambic of choice?

These are great with sriracha. I'm also huge on the pickled eggs they serve at Northern Spy, but I'm pretty sure they use malt vinegar (sans beets).

@JH Definitely bigger than I've seen commerical or homebrew examples, but it wore it well.

@Zach A. Unearthly is great stuff, indeed, but I didn't include any Imperial IPAs in this roundup.

@aintbaroque It was The Perfect Pour in Elkridge. It was my first time there and they had some great stuff.
@Jason_A Thanks!

@frackle good eye.

@DaveJ_DC You raise a fair point. With the exception of Captain Lawrence and Stone, I only sought out the American interpretation of robust porters (stronger, hoppier, roastier). Unfortunately, traditional brown porters are fairly hard to come by in the U.S. outside of brewpubs and homebrew club meetings (my friend Ken makes a really tasty, sessionable porter). The original English version is perhaps fodder for a future article.
