Junk.

The first and biggest of a few #homebrew upgrades this summer: #allgrain I got 68% efficiency on my first batch, an English #paleale. I’m happy for my first time, but hope to improve quickly.

Happy belated birthday to the wonderful Amy. Here is a summary of of our weekend.

Enjoying a Spicy Old Man while I work on the label. It is hotter than I planned, good smoke presence but the hops are a little lost. We’ll see how it ages. (Don’t show this to my Dad, he won’t be getting it for a couple weeks). #IPA #fathersday #peppers #heat #beer

Grim loves his cat grass box.
