    [​IMG] After 2 full days of snow, I cleaned the drive of 24 inches of snow just in time for more snow tonight. My snowblower was off line for two days. It took me that long to fix it myself. First I messed with the electric starter. And that was a non- starter. Pun intended. Not sure what is wrong with it. The guys on youtube make everything look so simple. Then I fixed the pull start. I ripped the cord out a few years ago. Good thing I saved it and figured out how to put it back together. Cheers!

    My closer. A good night is one that includes a barleywine, an imperial stout, and a Belgian ale. Tonight is that night. Cheers all.

    LOL you fucking nailed it, my friend. Already looking (and disappointed) in getting some SOS "down" here. TwoRoads might be in a bit of a financial bind with me out of the area. :wink:

    @MacMalt @vabeerguy @The_Kriek_Freak @LarryV @tasterschoice62 @russpowell Thank you all for the kind wishes, friends.

    I plan on continuing working ... just taking longer to do shit like, you know, put on pants and shirts and stuff. And for today at least, self-medicating.

    Cheers! :slight_smile:

    Good work getting the blower up and running. We have a small driveway so I just shovel.

    Thanks. I didn't want to shovel, so I was motivated to fix the blower. :grin:. Damn cold out in the garage (unheated), working on it. I had to use my gas stove flame in the kitchen to heat up a couple of things for the fix.

    From the 2025 Brewer's Association Guidelines for Imperial IPA's:

    Original Gravity (°Plato) 1.067-1.087 (16.5-21 °Plato) • Apparent Extract/Final Gravity (°Plato) 1.009 1.016 (2.3-4 °Plato) • Alcohol by Weight (Volume) 6.0%-8.4% (7.6%-10.6%) • Hop Bitterness (IBU) 65 100 • Color SRM (EBC) 2-7 (4-14 EBC)

    The guide is available here:

    2025_BA_Beer_Style_Guidelines.pdf

    I hate it when breweries convolute things and brews a 7.6% IPA, calls it an "Imperial, and then commands a higher price while others hit the same ABV, call it a single IPA, and charge less money.
