Parallel Products was Re: [biofuel] Container Plants
In the early 1980s a company called Parallel Products Inc of Dixon, California, was running a mobile alcohol fuel plant, on a truck with a trailer. No idea what became of them. .. Keith, Parallel Products runs several alcohol plants. The one in Louisville, KY uses waste from the beverage industry - everything from corn syrups to unwanted Budweiser from the local brewery. Seems to me that if most of America's population got a whiff of what real beer was like, Parallel would be receiving a lot more useless feedstock from the Bud plant. (Oh OH!!!. Here come the Anheuser Busch employees charging with spiked clubs!!!) Okay, I'll admit. Anheuser does make one or two brews that taste sufficient and meet the shallow wallet problem day before pay day. I guess you just have to have made your own mash, discovered some of that wild Belgian Abbey yeast that yields banana esters or created your own Cinnamon Pumpkin Ale a time or two to understand. That's probably what would be fitting use of every greeting room in any bio-d plant anyone ever creates - a beer brewing supply center - just one more form of independence.

Todd Appal Energy [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cinnamon Pumpkin Ale? Come on now Todd. From all your posts I thought you were a rather sophisticated man with sophisticated tastes, and here you go talking about brewing ridiculous novelty beer. You aren't one of those people that ruin a perfectly good cup of coffee by adding a sugary flavored syrup to it are you? I agree with you whole heartedly about Bud and the wonders of brewing your own, but in my humble opinion beer should taste like beer, and dessert should taste a thanksgiving pie. I make a killer steam beer to rival Anchor, as well as a pumkin pie to die for; I just don't enjoy them together, call me unadventurous I guess. -Andrew Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html To unsubscribe, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Your use of Yahoo!

Re: Parallel Products was Re: [biofuel] Container Plants
Andrew, You have to be careful here. Variety is the spice of life they say. I am always thankful I was brought up to try things, otherwise there are alot of pleasures and enjoyment I would have missed. Next thing you will be telling us the French with their Provencial style cooking or the Indians, Ceylonese, or Thais dont know how to cook and they ruin good food by adding spices and other junk to it. I always remember when I was working in Holland good English working class guys that I worked with for a while bringing their their tins of Heinz baked beans, Daddys sauce, etc across to Holland and telling me I'm not eating this Dutch sh--. For all the good their foreign experience was doing them they may as well have stayed at home. I also remember when I was a teenager a little old Jewish man who ran a second hand record shop in Symonds St here in Auckland and who was an avid fan of classical music, jazz, blues, and other music saying to me that kids came in looking for The Beatles, Rolling Stones, and other Pop records, and when they couldnt find them, and saw the type of music he was into called him a square. He then said to me I'll tell you what a square is. A square is a person who is fixated on one style of music and is not prepared to listen to anyone elses. I have always kept these two experiences in mind and as a result have had many pleasureable and enjoyable experiences in my life so far. As my mother would say Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So very true. Mind you when brewing your own it dosnt take long to learn you can quickly surpass most commercial brews out there on the market. Another thing I learnt through travel very quickly was that generally the bigger the brewery the worse the beer. This largely comes about because shelf life is then of primary importance and taste and flavour come second. There is certainly no doubt that many micro breweries produce a far better product. This quite often comes down to attention to detail and an ingredient that a lot of big businesses leave out or short change the customer on, in order to make a bigger profit, called LOVE. As I said earlier today I have seen more accountants and banks shaft worthwhile small businesses than is caused by incompetance by the owner. B.r., David Cinnamon Pumpkin Ale? Come on now Todd.
