According to last evening's waitress, Tin Man will have the dunkelweizen on tap today, albeit without the Klingon Warnog moniker.

The Craft Beer Revolution: How a Band of Microbrewers Is Transforming the World’s Favourite Drink. By Steve Hindy. Palgrave Macmillan; 244 pages; $25. To be published in Britain next month, £16.99. Buy from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk

TO THE uninitiated, American beer is fizzy dishwater. The informed tippler knows better. Walk into any of the thousands of craft-beer bars or brewpubs that have sprung up in recent years across the country and choose from an array of taps, perhaps a hoppy IPA, a delicate lager in the Pilsner style or an imperial stout with a hefty slug of alcohol. America still purveys some of the worst beer in the world, but it also brews much of the best.

The craft-beer explosion is the reason why. In the past three decades a grassroots movement has turned into a big business. Microbreweries have gone from nowhere to slurping 10% of a market worth $100 billion a year, though it is still dominated by two giant companies, Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors. In “The Craft Beer Revolution” Steve Hindy, co-founder and president of the Brooklyn Brewery, one of America’s most successful small beermakers, tells of the struggle to “bring down the Goliaths”.

Beer prices could go up under FDA rule that angers farmers, brewers
The proposal would classify companies that distribute spent grain to farms as animal feed manufacturers, possibly forcing them to dry and package the material before distribution.

An interesting glass cleaning device - a magnetized scrubber. Might be useful for carboys.

Along the same lines...

Finally! A 6.5 gallon PET fermentor and it is also a "Big Mouth™" for even easier cleaning!
