hum... no text in post, how strange.
In NZ we get Buni all the time, Ginger Beer owns, Its great becuse i use it a substitiute at parties (i dont drink). Phonix organics make an awsome GB too... You know what i've never gotten, the Us and Root beer, its way to sweet IMO.

I approve of this thread.

GuitarBizzare on Scalloping:

I think your trouble stems from using a powertool instead of files......its much easier to apply force in different ways to something when you can touch it all over without getting a finger lopped off. Much like the difference between Rape and Secks.

Colin and I have actally attempted making ginger beer in the past.It turned out ok - the recipe we had ended up with a ligntly carbonaded, mildly alchololic ginger-flavored lemonade, actually, which wasn't half bad - very refreshing - but needed to be filtered and wasn't ginger-y enough for a Dark and Stormy. Still, I haven't given up.
Good man, don't lose heart, you will have your Ginger beer eventually...

My dad and brother tried a similar thing, but I think it turned out like yours... + one of the bottles exploded...

Is root beer the equivilent to what we call Sarsparilla? Or is that different again... Either way, I also love that...

Does ginger beer have alcohol content?

I've always wanted to try it.

Generally, there's no alcohol in it. Traditional ginger beers are brewed, though, so homemade ones often turn out slightly alcoholic - as Drew can attest.

Alcoholic or not, it's a fine, fine concoction if you can find the right one, and can feel great on a warm evening. It also works quite well as complement to spicy foods, as I've found..

As Abhorred said, it doesn't usually, but sometimes homemade can turn out a little bit alcoholic...

My little bro got me 4 pack of Bundaberg for my birthday yesterday, so I enjoyed one earlier this afternoon, and thought of this thread as I was doing so...

Dude, that happened to us, too!

We made two 3L bottles, and drank one of them. The other sat in the fridge for a couple weeks. Colin was having a few people over for dinner one night, and figured it'd been there forever and we could use the fridge space, so he pulled it out to dump it down the sink.

He opened it, and nothing happened for a second, then all of a sudden it started erupting, geyser style, literally shooting up from the sink all the way to the ceiling, ten feet above, evidently for several seconds. The shit got EVERYWHERE. I'm sorry I wasn't there to see it...

Our guess is that when we filled that bottle we accidently overfilled it a little, and a lot of the yeast got out, so we added some more yeast and sugar. We then sealed it, let it ferment for the 24 hours, and tossed it into the fridge. What we think happened is there was too much yeast and sugar in there, but it continued to ferment in an anerobic environment for about two weeks. When it was suddenly unsealed and the oxygen-starved contents were exposed to oxygen, well...

"...and everything under the sun is in tune, but the sun is eclipsed by the moon."
