OMG! We finally brewed and the beer is ready for consumption! Woo-hoo!
Clearly, I was consuming this one with my lipstick marks on the glass. Sorry! I couldn’t help it. We were tasting it and I just got so excited that we finally had some homebrew and I wanted to share!
We also brewed a Kolsch and took both kegs to a getaway in the North Carolina mountains this weekend.
Both were a hit! We rented a house with some friends and drove around doing the dorky look at the leaves touristy thing.
I’m not a fan of sharing personal space and my biggest fear on this trip was having to share a bathroom with someone other than my husband. When we showed up and were told that our bedroom was the pull out sofa bed in the living room I threw a hissy fit and nearly had a heart attack calmly voiced my objections and we were relocated to a better, but not ideal sleeping situation. Needless to say, there was a bunch of Belgian Tripel involved the first night. In preparation for the second night, Chris took me to my mother ship….
I had a great time, but I’m happy to be home and there are a bunch of reasons that we are drinking beer on a Monday morning. I’m so glad I had the good judgment to take a Monday vacation day. Because next time? I need my own house. Cheers!
P.S. Be sure to come back and visit tomorrow – there’s something special happening….
P.S.S. I took 537 photos this weekend and plan to share after I can sort them out. The NC mountains are beautiful in October!
