Moving to St. John's

Post by CorneliusAlphonse » Fri Jun 08, 2012 5:07 pm

Since I am terrible at informing people of things... I just got a job in St. John's, "engineering" things. A big person job, that lasts longer then a couple months. My girlfriend isn't coming, though, so I expect I will be back here regularly enough :spilly: I don't have room to take any brewing stuff with me, so I may try to get a minimalist stovetop BIAB setup going over there, we'll see... but that's in the future. I leave sunday, so the grain pickup is sort of my last hurrah for a bit!
planning: beer for my cousin's wedding
Fermenting: black ipa
Conditioning:
Kegged: barrel barleywine from 2014 - i think i still have this somewhere

Good luck! If you see any employment for an Instrument Mechanic, let me know.:)
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

Congratulations on the job - even if it means you're skipping town. Enjoy the time in Newfoundland & good luck with the hunt for something back here. If you're in to great coffee, Hava Java and the Rocket Bakery on Water St make excellent brew. I think we've covered the beer availability on other threads.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

Congratulations, Liam. It only took me seven years to find my first career related job after graduating. Things have changed quite a bit since then.

I was thinking maybe you got a new name and account to go with the move...
