Nothing but beer here

Well, I guess any faithful followers of the blog deserve a quick update.

Last weekend, I brewed three batches of beer.

Ok, I really helped two other friends brew their very first batches of beer, and then Blair and I brewed our own. At the end of Sunday, I reeked heavily of hops and malted barley.

Bad news. Our newest batch, a nut brown ale, was giving off a strong sulphur smell on it's third day of fermenting. It had to be moved to the garage. We're not sure what went wrong, but hope to find out this weekend when we rack to secondary fermenation.

Sports and work take up all my time lately, thus few blog updates. I have some snowboarding and mountain biking adventures coming up, so hopefully I can snap some pics and give you kids something interesting to read.
