Back on track and brewing again
It’s Monday.
Normally we brew Mondays.
Sometimes we forget yeast.
But tonight, we are ready to go. We’ll be trying to tweak our Swashchuckler IPA a bit based on feedback from the Brewhaha and our ongoing beer battle with Sir Travis McStupidhead. Unfortunately we won’t have much to drink given that our last 2 batches got a bit [...]
Tonight, we brew!
We got some good feedback from the party on our Swashchuckler IPA and so we decided it’s time to give it another go.

Getting all gussied up for our party
We’re planning on having a lot of visitors over tomorrow. This whole Brewhaha thing has gotten very big very quickly, so we decided to clean the garage up a little bit. Joel of all people had a good idea – let’s rethink our grain storage situation. We still keep our base malts in big airtight [...]
