IH-526-ODG "Party Jacket Tour"

Great fit on you @emceeQ

Camera is on fritz, so it will likely by phone pics of varying quality for my portion of the tour.
The party jacket made it into work with me yesterday, where it relaxed on the extra chair in my office all day…
For those that don't know, I work at a brewery out here in Hawaii. Here is a pic of our brew house. It has a batch size of 15 BBL (1 BBL is 31 US gallons). Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done…
This is the section of our brewery with the brew house and all of our beer fermentation space. We have four 30 BBL tanks and six 60 BBL, so we either brew 2 or 4 batches into each tank depending on the size…
As a startup brewery there is always work going on somewhere. We just got the floors in this room epoxied about a week ago and got some smaller 10 BBL tanks in to allow us to do some small batch experimental stuff. Hoping to have the tanks online and ready to use in a few weeks. This room will also be getting a CO2 recovery system to allow us to harvest and re use all the CO2 created over the course of our beer fermentations. We will also be installing a centrifuge in this room to help clarify our beer and further increase the consistency of our product…
Friday nights are bike polo. Have a minor injury so I didn't play last night, but it's always a good time…

^I definitely could've landed in worse places. Plus one of my best friends was already out here and I've found myself in a community of awesome folks…
Snagged a quick selfie at work before gearing up this morning. This is in front of our 2nd "brew house." We use this setup for cider production. Being in Hawaii, we don't have access to a large amount of apples, so we use apple concentrate from Oregon for our base, but we use a large variety local fresh fruit from the Hawaiian islands...
Side note, really loving my IH-824. Gonna have some great evo on these in a few months…Sunsets out here have been pretty fantastic lately. This is the view from my living room...

Right on @emceeQ !!!! I bet you guys go skinny dipping in the beer vats with a glass in hand as QC.

Not a ton of photos from this weekend, but…
Friday night we attempted to play bike polo as usual but we had some pretty gnarly rain, so it mostly turned into just enjoying some beers out by the court (Modern Times Simcoe for me). Pardon the blurry pic...
Phone battery was dead so no pictures, but I volunteered on the bike course at the Iron Man World Championship Saturday morning. Over 2,000 competitors raced. It was truly a sight to behold. One of the professional athletes finished in under 8 hours setting a new record…
After the race a bunch of friends and I made brunch at a friends place. Can't really see the spread, but we made a ton of crepes with all kinds of fillings and had plenty of mimosa supplies...
I'm currently enjoying a lazy Sunday morning listening to music, drinking some tea, messing around on the internet and working on the Sunday crossword.
Today's tea is one of my favorites. It's a creamy earl grey from a tea maker back in Michigan consisting of black tea, blue cornflower, lavender, vanilla, calendula and bergamot…
So far the playlist this morning consists of…
Ogikubo Station - We Can Pretend Like
Super Unison - Super Unison
Stereo Lab - Dots and Loops
Gouge Away - , Dies
Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith & Suzanne Ciani - FRKWYS Vol. 13: Sunergy

Went camping this weekend with a group of friends a good ways up Mauna Kea, the tallest volcano (13,875 ft) in Hawaii.
Grabbed a quick fit before we got to rambling up the trail…
The beginnings of the road up to the cabin…
Our cabin…
A hint of sunset poking through the clouds…
One of the nearby hiking trails…
Some old water tanks we passed on the way back down this morning…
