Brewery Night

Brewery Night happened once again.  Sadly, this time, without one brother.  Joel and I were troubleshooting our sparge water problem.  Our current sparge tank couldn't hold the amount of water we needed to do anything more than a 5-gallon batch.  Soooooo we chopped a hole in the top of a 15-gallon keg to serve as our new sparge tank.  We were quite pleased. video 
Our current batch is aging nicely.  It gets better every day.  I was a little worried at first when it tasted really bitter and sour.  The flavor has mellowed out quite a bit to a drinkable level.  The batch itself has a few more months before it fully matures.  Our hope is to have multiple batches going at once.  
I love my brewther a lot.  Come on over, have a pint.  If you ever want to know more about the details of our process, check out Joel's blog.

Hops + grain = beer
Taste testing- I approve!

Well I think until the other brewther returns he needs a substitute. My schedule is clearing up soon...
