Nice episode, Chip.
How in demand are those first batches from Heretic gonna be? I can only imagine.
Also have to say, that, bottle bombs or not, those toxic waste beers should have at least won for appearance, lol, that was a great concept. Lemon/lime soda + beer, not so much.
Pickup TRUUUUUCK!
Nice video Chip! Very entertaining.
Susan the yeast goddess! And Jamil opening a brewhouse?! Whoa! Can You Brew It?
Great show to start our Friday night......Stan is wondering about Swedish beer....since he's part Swedish....fill us in....
Another great episode. I love watching these. I'm brewing right now and dreaming about getting a toptier.
Goof freakin show Chipper. All hail the Zainascheff!
Great show, Chip, one of the best. Big news! Hope I can try some Heretic some time.
Nice work man. Awesome scoop on Heretic brewing. Funny name, since it sounds like they would be doing any thing sort of anti-establishment to normal brewing. Since Jamil is such a style king, it seems like an odd name. But, it will be fun to see what they release. He kept saying "we" and I wonder if some of the Brewing Network guys are involved. Tasty McDole? Will be really fun to see how that shakes out. One thing you can know - he will not be releasing beers with off flavors!
Nice job on the the Hoppy Halloween contest. Looks like a fun time. The scary/Halloween beer contest is a cool addition. Watch out for that toxic stuff!
word.
Great episode Chip! Thanks for coming up and hanging out with us for the weekend. You're welcome back anytime.
nice job!
Great episode Chip!
You should bother the guys to let you appear in more episodes. You were fun to watch.
Cheers!
Hey, thanks for coming up Chip, it was fun having you in town, and you are welcome back anytime! Although my garage floor is still a bit sticky!
Well done, Chip. I'm totally jealous of your trip to Fargo. Seemed like an awesome adventure. What a way to spend a couple days!!
Chip (or Eric if you're following) any chance we could get some details on the business end of the electric immersion element featured in the hoppy Halloween segment? Looked like an interesting variant of a heat stick, a variant that I haven't seen before. Thanks for another informative episode.
@ Bret. Send me your e-mail to <chip@northernbrewer.com> and Eric says he's send you a link to a forum/blog post he wrote up on it once upon a time. Thanks for watching and your comment! CW

Chip thanks for following up with more info on the heat stick/stand, I appreciate it.
