I haven't posted a journal entry in a while- mainly because I stick everything in promash now. But someday I may want to look back at where I began. In 8 days, I'll celebrate my 3-year brewing anniversary. Time flies!
I've got the 10 gallon system that I'm splitting in half and converting into two 10 gallon systems, and the club is making a 55 gallon brewery. I hope to try a lot of experimental beers in 2006. I've already made one that tastes awesome! Once it's officially done, I'll post the recipe on this site.
On tap right now is a 8.5% belgian dark strong and a 7.7% doppelbock. I also have an amber I made with homegrown hops. That was my first time using my own hops and they were really great. I might plant more next spring and definitely brew with them again. I've been talking to a hop grower in NY who is part of the heritage hop trail they're starting.
One of my biggest reasons for success is tastybrew.com, so I'm very thankful it is here as well as all the good people. I usually change hobbies like I change underwear, but as long as my liver holds up, I think I'll be brewing for a long long time.
