It is good! Ended up calling it 101th pale ale. It's funny to hear people try to figure out how to ask for it at the bar!
In hindsight I would have liked to have used some more dank hops and added more bitterness.
You need one (or two) of those stair-side chair lifts.
Or a bigger window and some pulleys...
Dude I was supposed to have a frieght lift, it hasn't appeared yet though....
It's funny. I watched a grown man's mind glitch while ordering lol.Even reading it looks Odd!
I thought why not 101st
Either way it's finicky.

have that one too........can never get it to stop leaking.
pH meter, lactic acid and some kegerator line organizers .
Same mines going on 5years I find after awhile the duotight hose clamp thing wears and it's hard to get a tight seal.
Got the new version now I've decided where possible to leave the hoses clamped in that way avoiding possible leak when reassembled...
I grew up in Oregon, seen the Palouse a few times. It's not my favorite but I love the hops lol
Some thoughts on that:
Duotight is just one of many similar products. These depend on the tubing being prepared well. If everything is as it should be, it won't leak.
Disconnect the line(s) - ideally only the one that's leaking! (find it using soapy water). They disconnect by pushing the ring on the connector inwards. Re-cut the end, making sure it is perfectly square. A cigar cutter might be useful, and they make similar items just for the tubing, but careful work with a sharp razor should do. Then plug it back in. IF it still leaks, the coupling is faulty and needs replacement, BUT one can possibly fix that with a bit of food-safe grease (vaseline, keg lube, etc.) smeared on the outside of the tubing - take it out, grease it, plug it back in.
Now if it is leaking somewhere else, like a threaded joint, add teflon tape or just throw your hands in the air and curse at it.
Hey another thing if anyone is having issues with the Duotight fittings is they have two grab points .
Meaning when you push your line home into the fitting it will go in and you'll feel resistance that's the first bit keep pushing it'll push in another couple of mill that's the second seal.
I'll link their video
At the end at 5:50 min mark it explains it

Most of those push fitting are like that. The first pop is the retention clamp, The second is the oring that does the actual sealing

Duotight have the grip ring and two orings, whereas say John Guest fittings have a single oring.
