• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    What is your favorite DR cigar?

    I was mainly talking about pure DR filler/binder but actually enjoying all the various suggestions.

    Fantasy Football draft league for sticks?

    Ah, kk, thanks for the heads up. I mainly hang out in gaming and computer tech forums which surprisingly are void of a pool/betting thread.

    Fantasy Football draft league for sticks?

    This is just an idea but is there any interest in doing a BOTL Fantasy Football League? We're already at week 2 so it will be a bit of a late draft but there's still plenty of weeks left. Here's the format I came up with: * 10 person league * Top 3 places win * Members in the top 3...

    What is your favorite DR cigar?

    Definitely thinking I need to find me an Anejo... If one of the sponsors carries a 5 pack I think I'll order some in. Any others?

    What is your favorite DR cigar?

    Okay so I still consider myself a newb. I've only been smoking cigars for 11 months and never purchased a full box yet. After those 11 months the only thing I've definitively figured out is I'm a DR fan. Ashton, Aging Room, La Gloria Cubana, EP Carrillo, and my current favorite bargain brand...

    Homebrewers - Whats Fermenting?

    10 gallons of EdWort's Oktoberfest will be going from the secondary to the keg tomorrow. Been cold crashing for a week now. One pass through the filter and it should be ready for our annual Halloween party.

    Beer O da day!

    I'm an official hop head but I'm just not cool with the idea of a low ABV IPA. One of the best parts of an IPA is they are usually at least 6.5% if you take that away then your just drinking hops. I'm a full believer in drink (and smoke) what you like though. Everyone's tastes are...

    Beer O da day!

    Hello fellow Kansan! There's at least 2 of us on here now lol. Is LB brewing finally canning or is there a 2nd brewery in Hays now? I love LB brewing but I am adamantly against session IPA's.

    Brothers who homebrew!?!

    When I first made the switch over to AG I used a coleman cooler with a braided hose, worked really well. Cost about $6 + spigot to make if you already have a cooler. You can also make a 13.5 gallon pot with an old keg and a dremel. If you think of going that route let me know and I'll send...

    Brothers who homebrew!?!

    I do a nice Imp Oatmeal Stout for winter or an Imp Nut Brown ale also works (I roast almonds and add them to the secondary). Both need to age for a bit so you'll need to get started ASAP if you go that route. That's one thing that kind of sucks about homebrewing, you need to be thinking 4-5...

    Brothers who homebrew!?!

    Every so often I brew my wife a batch of girly beer.. Made her a blueberry wheat this summer she loved. As long as I rotate her in every so often she's pretty supportive.

    Brothers who homebrew!?!

    Hi all. New homebrewer from Kansas here. I'm a 10 gallon AG brewer (I do 90 minute boils so I can smoke a cigar while brewing). I'll be filtering and kegging my Oktoberfest this weekend (I know I'm late, silly wife and kids keep getting in the way of my brewing). I've been brewing now for...
