It's just so... tangy. It does the same thing to my nose that ammonia does. It's not the smell, it's the sting in the nose and back of the throat that gets me. Cow and horse is gentle, smooth, almost soothing. Pig just stabs at the soft, wet spots inside my head >< Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

Didn't know that was possible, thought they were just good for beer. The President is a fink. |

Because they are super fresh, I suspect. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

Don't look at me, they had to brew with what grew in Mass. FWIW I do swear pumpkins are the easiest thing to grow. I have them mostly trellaced but a few runners popped up all the way across the garden. The President is a fink. |

Totally, find fermentables, mash it and ferment the sugar for healthy goodness. Malt is just the best for it. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |

It's all in how you do the test. Take a warm tomato off the vine and bite into it, and heat up a store bought in the sun, you can't tell the difference. Same with green beans and carrots and most things. It has to be a blind test, because you want the garden stuff to be better, it will be if you know which it is. It also has to be local produce from your area, not some crap flown in from S America. Just like dumping gallon jug merlot into expensive bottles, it will fool 99% of wine drinkers. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
