"I agree.  Poorly written.  I read it the same way you did.  Kind of a cool magazine though.  I got some card in the mail and got a year subscription for like $2."

"I thought that too at first. After I reread it, I realized it's saying "Knoxville Iowa's only brewery" but the punctuation is misleading. Definitely could have been written better."

Great Taste of the Midwest

Anyone interested in going to the Great Taste of the Midwest in Madison on Aug 11th? I've heard it really is a great festival. It's unfortunately the same weekend as the opening of the Iowa State Fair. Here's the kicker: I guess it sells out instantly and tickets are via a lottery system. The website gives the details: http://www.mhtg.org/great-taste-of-the-midwest/ticket-sales but in a nutshell, you have to send a SASE…See More

"I just got two Chugger pumps (www.chuggerpumps.com). My understanding is that they're very similar to the March pumps with the same flow rates. I got the stainless steel center inlet ones for $145 (I believe the March SS ones are $395). The…"

"I am certified but would like to retake the tasting portion if there are spots available (i.e., I wouldn't want to take one of the 12 spots if more than that sign up for the exam)."

Anyone have a nitrogen tank to sell

I think I need to add a nitro tap to my kegerator.  Before I order a nitrogen tank, I just thought I'd see if anyone has a used one they're willing to sell?  Thanks.

John,

I'm welding in a couple of fittings into a keg for a friend tomorrow night. He just bought a bcs-460 too and is still learning the ropes.  If it works for you it would be great timing.  Give me a call or text. I work unit 3:30 on Friday.
