The Adventures of Bren and Sven

Home Brew DIY: Counter-flow Chamber

As the second batch of highly experimental Bren and Sven brew ages gracefully in our elaborate beer cellar, I'm sorry, I mean a series of cupboards in hall closet, I thought it would be the ripe time to discuss our newest addition to our brewing equipment. Brewing beer is an extremely delicate process. You first have to bring all your ingredients, minus the yeast, to  roaring boil and when done you need to immediately bring it to a tolerable temperature for the yeast to work its magic in. If not...

Top Gear or Low Gear?

So if you're a dude and have a profound love, or at least respect, for automobiles of all sorts you've probably heard of this little show called Top Gear. Little, who am I kidding? Top Gear is HUGE! To be honest we are not sure if the Top Gear show has a defined budget, it's that big. So lets fill in those who are a bit unfamiliar to Top Gear.

Sven’s Apologetic Return

Wow a long lost soul returns. No it's just Sven. So both Bren and myself, Sven, would like to apologize to you all for the brief hiatus we were on. We know you all have been jonesing for the mind blowing content that is  Bren and Sven. I know there are no room for excuses in this world, but I had just recently got a new full time job (with sweet benefits). So the last few weeks I had devoted my attention to the training rather than the Bren and Sven universe. And for that, I am sorry. But no...
