Master Brewer
Hello fellow brewers. I started one year ago and yesterday brewed my 66th batch. I've only bought one kit (my first batch),now I just wing it. That's the fun of it. I've made some good beers,some alright beers, and some really awesome beers, but I drank them all. Finally got off my butt and started all grain brewing. I made a brown nut ale with Maris Otter, I also made an identical batch using 6.6lbs of muntons amber lme.Can't wait to test them side by side. It wasn't that much more time. This past saturday I installed 2 taps on my beer fridge (yes everyone needs a beer fridge). A keg never lasts over a week,Friends and family thinks it's great so they keep coming over and drinking fueling my brewing madness. Last Labor Day party I went thru 4 kegs of IPA and uncounted bottles of beer.
Having over an acre of land I figured why not so I'm planting 20 rhizomes this spring(crazy? maybe, but like I said that's the fun of it.) Any tips are welcome. I'm starting to build the arbors soon. I'll have to get a beer freezer too, my wife just shakes her head and says"sounds great", wait till she helps me harvest them!
