maybe it's good but it just doesn't make me want to jump in the car and go get some.

I've had that before. It's decent... but not my favorite beer ever. I'll stick to plain 'ole Sam Adams Lager.

Yup.

P.S. Those Envi logs are pretty awesome. Last night I fired up the stove with some pine to get it hot and get some hot coals, then popped in one of those 6 packs around 7pm. At 5am the stove was still at close to 300 degrees and there were plenty of coals to keep a fire going if I wanted to do that. With some experimentation, I could probably actually get the 12 hours of heat they advertise. That came as a shock to me.

that's awesome news!! was it easy to contain / maintain the heat? ie did you kill the air once they were going?

i'm still learning mine - stuffed all kinds of red oak into mine last night and it hit 850 killed the air, put fans all around the insert and she finally settled in around 600 woke up and it was still 70 in the house

Yup, I had to crank the air almost all the way down once it was going and it still hung at about 500 degrees. But once I did that, I just left it alone. When I went to bed it was 83 or so. When I woke up it was 76. If these things all burn that consistently, I'll be real happy.

The only big downside I see is lighting them off. Ideally, I'd still use wood to do that since it lights up a lot faster and easier. Unfortunately, I don't have enough to do that all winter. Maybe I'll dip a couple bricks in gasoline to get them to start faster.
