In Jackson Hole , Wyoming lies a wonderful Micro Brewery. The SRBC has a few really food beers. And one really bad one. My personal favorite beer is the Organic brew one (OB-1). It rivals all other beers I have ever had. The SRBC even ships. But alas not to MS. I think that the BBBC needs to get off of our asses and get a PO box in Louisiana. So we can ship beers from all over our great land here.
OB-1 Organic Ale is a federally certified, organic UK style amber ale. Snake River Brewing proud to be the first and only brewery to be making certified organics in the state of Wyoming.
Made from 100% organic ingredients, OB-1 utilizes organic 2-Row Pale malt, organic Carastan 120L, organic Munich 9L and organic Carastan 20L make up the nice amber hue.
The hop used for this beer is organic Hallertau, imported from New Zealand in both the brew kettle and dry-hopping as well. The only other ingredients are Teton mountain spring water and an imported strain of English ale yeast.
The starting gravity of OB-1 is 12.5 Plato and the beer finishes at 2.5 giving it an alcohol content of 5.2%
St. Patricks Day is just around the corner. Just wondering if anyone wanted to make T-shirts? I am in complete favor of a banner. But, would still like to make some shirts. If anyone is interested about making t-shirts. Let me know. I would be happy to have any suggestions.
A good segment on our Mississippi born and bred local brewery. Kudos Lazy Magnolia! The BBBC loves your beers!
Walt (host) says “cool” like my dad and grandmother say “cool” or “school” (0:26). My kin says it like “coo” or “schoo.” Ya gotta love the Mississippi way!
Working in construction I often am afforded the opportunity to shit in a port a john. I know lucky me. Many times I find myself enjoying some art work and poetry by some of central MS finest artist. Just thought I would share a few poems with yall.
-Here I sit all tired and dirty trying to shit until 4:30
-Roll em long and burn em slow, and wear the shades so the boss don’t know.
-Here I sit all broken hearted came to shit but only farted.
-Per OSHA standard all terds over six inches must be hand lowered to prevent chemical splash.
-Larry really likes gerbils.
Thats just a few I can remember. I may add some more if anyone ever gives any feedback.

This is it folks. Our bill to raise the alcohol content allowable in beer sold in MS is before the Senate Finance committee. It must receive favorable action by Tuesday 19 February or it’s dead until next year. The reality is more urgent that that, however. The bill is up for consideration in the committee this Thursday 14 February. That’s the day after tomorrow for those of you not paying attention.
That means the fate of this bill will be decided the day after tomorrow!
If we are to have any chance at this we MUST have citizens pick up the phone and call the members of the committee now. This is how democracy works, people. If we don’t get a lot of people involved immediately this will end and MS will be stuck in the neo-prohibitionist doldrums for another year.
OK fellow beer lovers. We have learned that Dean Kirby (chairman of the
Finance committee) is not going to let the Beer Bill (SB 2851) come out of
committee (which means it will die if it does not).
I can’t overstress how important it is for every beer lover in the state to pick up the phone and contact Mr. Kirby tonight or tomorrow at the latest. If we do nothing, the bill dies. Period. The ONLY chance we have is for the members of the committee to hear from enough of us and hear our position. I’m attaching some talking points that might help you when talking – but just call them up. Also, does anyone know any businesses in Pearl, Brandon, etc (Kirby’s district) that they can contact to get them to call Kirby and support the bill? [via]
You will probably get Senator Kirby’s secretary, Janet. Please leave a message with her - she’ll probably ask for your name and number. After that, just tell her you support Senate Bill 2851 and would like Senator Kirby to allow it to come to a vote. — Katie Parkman
I think that Jack Johnson, Xavier Rudd, Matt Costa, Matisyahu, Ben Harper, Donavon Frankenreiter and The Dropkick Murphys (DKM) would be a dream lineup. I had to throw one change of pace in the mix. But honestly, isn’t that a great lineup? All we need is SNPA and TBDA to sponsor along with some of the best British Columbia has to offer. It would be a very positive and happy energy. Which would cause a great drunkenness and party that would live for all times. That burp tasted like vomit. As a result of this show DKM would play Jackson on ST PADDIES!! Hells yea!! This is really more just drunken babble. Later fuckers.
It was a great afternoon. I learned a few new things about the beer making process; not only general beer making, but the process and ingredients involved in different types of beers (white, porters, ales, pilsners, etc). The seven beers for tasting last night were:
I feel very fortunate to have open-minded individuals like MEBA, CCB, Jeff Good, and The Crothers Brothers helping to bring more beer variety into Mississippi.
On the night of January 25th 2008, the great minds of Brad Tarver and Matt Wann sat down for a night of good libations and drunken babble. What was to come of this night, no one could have imagined. And thus The Sierra Dog was born.
That burp tasted like vomit.
I know what you’re thinking. What is a Sierra Dog? Well guess what fuckers? I’ll tell you. A Sierra Dog is a combo of two beers. A mixture of 1/2 SNPA (Sierra Nevada Pale Ale) and 1/2 Abita Turbo Dog. (T.B.D.A) Both great beers alone, but as one? I am thinking the Great Wall of China of beers. This is a day that will live along side other great days of invention. The Wheel, the refrigerated rail car, assembly line and mass production, central air and heat, indoor plumbing, tampons (for the ladies), fire, original alcohol, bourbon, a pipe, birth control. Feel free to comment about other great inventions. Continue reading ‘The Red Dawn’
