Brewing Again!

Well I finally put away all of the stuff that I dragged home from China, so it was time to get back to brewing!


With the help of a couple of friends (STEB and Gary), we produced a double batch of Wo Bu Zhi Dao Red Ale. By the way that's STEB in the "Beer Security" hat, and he was doing a good job of securing the beer. ;-)


It's name is derived from the fact that I couldn't get the hops that I usually use for my red, and since it's been so long since I've brewed I really don't know what this one will turn out like! (Did my hint help you with the translation?)

Let's keep our fingers crossed that it comes out good and I'll let you know!


Oh I almost forgot, the hops are growing like crazy again this year too!

Thunder-
I guess the fact that I helped grind the grist, helped fill the carboys and cooked all that delicious food wasn't worthy of mentioning huh?
Love as always,
Lightnin

Looks like you're the victim of a Lightnin strike.
