Really, enjoying your beer tales. My dad and grandfather used to make beer and then store the bottles in my grandparents basement. They had a lot of fun with it and made some pretty good stuff. The results were always tasted while sitting waaay out in the back on a patio my grandfather had built. It was specifically for the guys to sit around and talk and drink beer.

I'm anxious for my first bottle. Although I had a taste tonight, it wasn't quite the full experience as, like I said, it was warm and flat.

It's also funny that I'm anxious not only to try my beer but to also make the next batch! I think I might even try to see if other people want to purchase the bottles & ingredients and I'd make them beer as well.

They had alot of fun making it. Lots of discussing, the women rolling their eyes and leaving to do something else. I've no idea if it was any good - I think drinking it was a great excuse to wander to the back corner of the yard. I have a pretty big family and usually it was the uncles and some of the older cousins who got to taste it. Drat
