Brewing has resumed at Whole Hog Brewery following a much needed retreat to sunny Acapulo to celebrate Kev-E-Kev's bachelor party. Many cervezas were consumed while playing Beruit (a verson of beer pong). Needless to say, WHB will not be brewing a clone of Corona or Dos Equis anytime soon. Check out these pictures of the trip...at least the ones tame enough to post. Next time we're definately going to Brazil. And yes Kevin, that was an earthquake!

Big Batch Brew Bash
ATTENTION WHB MEMBERS
Saint Arnolds will be holding their 13th annual Big Batch Brew Bash. This year's feature beer is a Weizenboch (15C). I figure it's time to test the waters and enter a Homebrew competition.
Entries must be submitted to Brew-It-Yourself no later than May 11th. We will need to refine our brewing skills, so I suggest we brew two batches of Weizenbock. Tentatively mark your calanders to brew on Sunday March 16th and Sunday March 30th. This will give us plenty of time to ferment and carbonate both batches berfore the entry dealine.
Each entry must submit three (3) bottles of the brew in a non-descript brown or green bottle. I will purchase a coutner-pressure bottle filler so we can load stright from the keg.
Since we are entering a competition, we will create our own recipe based on the typical characteristics describe in the above link.

Latest Addition to WHB
The Setting Sun
The sun has set on another Whole Hog Brewery favorite, as earlier this week the last of the Mulvarian Sunset was consumed. The keg was tapped to celebrate Sunny and Mel’s visit to H-Town. The call of fresh beer, or maybe the arrival the newest member of the WHB family, Alan Wyn Miller, brought together many friends. A good time was had by all.

One Dynamo of a Beer Fridge
Well the votes were tallied and Dynamo Orange just nudged out Jayhawk Blue. Thanks to all who voted. Here are some pictures of the nearly complete beer fridge. Awaiting 4 circular Whole Hog Brewery magnetic logos and the company sticker in white for the door. The replacement thermostat should be in by this Friday, just in time for serving the Mulvarian Sunshine Ale, which by the way, tastes great. Special thanks to Assistant Brewmaster Double Dave for all the hard work with the tower installation.

R.I.P. Chiller of Beer
Whole Hog Brewery began it's kegging operation with the purchase of a early 80's model GE Refrigerator. After countless hours of cutting, modifying, and painting, we finally had a beer fridge we could be proud of. Recently however, the fridge began to leak oil and freon. The compressor is knocking loudly and it was only a matter of time before WHB would have to put the fridge to rest. We will never forget the brews you chilled to the optimum server temperature. Rest In Peace.
Stay tuned for the unveiling of WHB's newest Beer Fridge!

Could it be that Guitar Hero III may spell the downfall of Whole Hog Brewery?
