I brewed a Red Ale on Sunday. I started around 12:00 p.m. and finished around 4:00 p.m. Everything went pretty well, without problems. I wish I was able to do it more frequently. There are just some things that are easy to forget or you get ahead of yourself sometimes.
NEW MILFORD, CT, United States (UPI) — A 22-year-old New Milford, Conn., man was killed and seven others injured after a beer keg thrown into a fire barrel exploded at an outdoor party.
The blast at 3:13 a.m. Sunday was powerful enough to shake windows a mile away from the field where between 50 and 100 people in their 20s were attending an annual pig roast, the Danbury (Conn.) News-Times reported Monday.
Sean Caselli, 22, was killed by a jagged piece of shrapnel to the neck, while seven others were hit by shrapnel or burned, New Milford police said.
Investigators would not reveal who had thrown the barrel into the fire barrel, the newspaper said.
‘Nothing I have been apprised of to this point in the investigation … indicates a deliberate act on anyone`s part,’ New Milford Police Chief Colin McCormack told reporters.
By late Sunday, all of the injured had been treated and released from two area hospitals, McCormack said.
Monday, the incident was under investigation by local police, state and local fire marshals, and the state police Major Crime Squad, the newspaper said.The blast at 3:13

Here are some pictures of the Kegging equipment that I am using. A friend of mine got this stuff in a real estate deal. He did not know what he had or what to do with it. Obviously I offered to take if off of his hands. I have only kegged […]
Again, this batch is going very well. Got everything bottled up, and did a bit of a taste test after taking a hydrometer reading. 1.012 - right on the money for expected final gravity. Awesome! And I can tell already that this is going to be a very tastey batch. Beer is extremely clear, and […]
I’ve got my English Pale Ale in secondary right now. Brewer’s Best malt extract kit - nothing fancy, but I just wanted to get the ball rolling again, as it’s been a while since I brewed anything. My motorcycle trip to Texas got the homebrewing juices flowing again. One of the bikers/ministers […]
Well, we finally got our website. Hello from Eric, Tommy, Dave, and Brian. And we didn’t even burn down the corn field in the process!
