This past Saturday I brewed beer..again and like the first time all over. I rolled down to Brian’s place and we set about doing the deed. I arrived around 9:30am and we finished up around 4pm. According to Bri’s recounting, it looks like things went ok. I still feel like I could have done more, but at the same time I was hesitant as it had been so long (aka 3 and half years! LAME!) since last time and this was my first experience with all-grain brewing.

I really enjoyed it. I think the combination of brewing and the company made the day great. I love the mad scientist factor and the “It may hurt you” point of doing this.

Brian has definitely hooked me up. I think he is a great mentor for this. I would like to get more space (which I mentioned before) and do this myself on a regular basis. Not the frequency that he does, but say once a month. That feels reasonable to me.

I wanted to post the label I made…..3 years ago and can only find the first draft, which is much different than the end result, perhaps totally different would be a better description.
