Beer Tours and Beer Travel for Beer Lovers - Beer Tours & Beer Trips for Beer Lovers Drinking Games | Film School Rejects Cult television shows always end up with a certain level of melancholy because their fans feel they were canceled long before their time. It is this fan devotion that keeps these shows alive in reruns and on the various home video platforms. However, once in a while, a show gets resurrected on a different network (like Cougar Town), as a major motion picture (like Serenity), or even on a totally different delivery platform (like Arrested Development moving to Netflix). Arrested Development is one of those cult television shows that the fans refused to forget. It may never have been as popular as the similarly quirky but far more mainstream Seinfeld, but for the fans, it has worked its way into the fans’ lives as much as any show has.

How to Brew Beer - Home Brewing Getting Started - Popular Mechanics - StumbleUpon Serious about making large batches of beer? Splurge for a propane-powered rig with a three-tiered brew stand. This setup, by Indiana-based Blichmann Engineering, costs about $2000 and features a trio of 20- to 30-gallon pots and gas burners that put out 216,000 Btu per hour. (The high heat quickly boils large amounts of liquid, shaving hours off the brewing process.) Sanitize Yeast and sugar are beer's building blocks—but they're dinner for flavor-spoiling bacteria. TIP: Use a large container (a wallpaper tray will do) filled with sanitizer to douse hard-to-wash items, such as tubing.
Green Monster Cocktail | SavoryReviews.com Every Wednesday I usually write a book review, but this week I was way to busy to sit down and read a book. I know it is a shame, but I have been extremely busy. So instead of reading a book, I made a cocktail. Who doesn’t need a cocktail half-way through the week. After a few shots of the green monster I tried it as a stand alone cocktail. The Green Monster 1 oz Blue Raspberry Vodka – I use UV Blue1 oz Midori1 oz Sour Mix1/2 oz Lemonade – Use no pulp lemonade1/2 oz Lemon-Lime Soda – I used Sprite The first step is to add ice to your shaker. Next add the vodka. All they had at the local ABC was miniature bottles of UV. Add the Midori. This melon liquor is a nice addition for summer drinks. Add the sour, lemonade and the sprite. My shaker is just a metal tin, so it requires a pint glass to finish it off. Fill your rocks glass with ice. The key to a good cocktail is ice. Now strain the drink into the glass. Fill to the lip and enjoy! There you go, the ultimate summer cocktail. The Green Monster

Preserving Fruit Flavors in Alcohol: Homemade Liqueurs | Growing A Greener World - StumbleUpon When we discuss food preservation, we are usually talking about canning, dehydrating, freezing or fermenting. But did you know that you can also preserve fruit in alcohol, such as brandy or vodka? It is a way of preserving the flavor or essence of the fruit for later use. This method consists of steeping fresh or frozen fruit in alcohol for several weeks. Homemade Raspberry Liqueur: This little gem is versatile in the kitchen and so easy to make. Better than store bought and packed with flavor, these little liqueur gems are versatile in the kitchen and very easy to make. And guess what? Fruit: You can make liqueur from just about any fruit: apples, apricots, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, citrus, cranberries, peaches, pineapple, raspberries or even a mixture of fruit. Alcohol: I prefer to use vodka for most liqueurs because it allows the flavors and the colors of the fruit to really shine. Spices: Bottles: Basic Homemade Fruit Liqueur Recipe: Imagine that!

Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms | Everyday Home Cook - StumbleUpon “This is probably my favorite way to eat chicken.” That’s a quote from my husband the last time I made Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms for dinner. Marinate some chicken breasts in honey, mustard, and lemon, then top with bacon, mushrooms and cheese… How could that go wrong? I love to serve this dish with a side of oven fries and a crisp lettuce salad. Begin by making the marinade for the chicken. Here’s what you’ll need for the toppings: sliced fresh mushrooms, mostly cooked bacon (it will cook more when baked in the oven), grated cheddar, and fresh parsley. After the chicken has marinated, heat a small amount of oil in a large skillet. Scrape out the pan, and toss in the mushrooms. Assemble the chicken in a large baking dish. After baking for about 20 minutes, chop up some fresh parsley and sprinkle atop before serving! Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms 1 to 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts 1/4 cup Dijon mustard 1/4 cup honey 1 teaspoon lemon juice
