rip broadzilla

i checked on the keezer this morning. as soon as i opened the lid i knew something was wrong. there was a beautiful yet gut wrenching smell in the air. that smell was the remaining broadzilla pale ale that had somehow forced its way through the kegs out post and onto the bottom of the keezer. great aroma, horrible site. luckly the keg was almost empty so only 3-4 beers were lost. here's all that was left inside the keg, about 1 inch of beer and sediment.


here is the last known picture of some broadzilla pale ale doin work. as you can tell by the picture, this beer was an easy 2 thumbs up. we will definitely be brewing this one again.


this was a horrible experience, but could also be looked at in a positive way. we brewed an amber ale (man-up princess amber) a few weeks ago and its been sitting in secondary waiting its turn in line. so today i moved the amber over to a newer keg and put on 10 lbs of pressure. it smelled delicious when racking.
