THIS IS IT!

Well, we're back! It's been a long three years but we've finally gotten back to brewing again. Granted, as of this writing, we've only gotten one brew under our belts (since the three year hiatus) with another one planned in two days' time, but we've got determination and, more importantly, our wives' support.

Tell ya what, it feels great to be back in the saddle.

This past weekend we bottled our newest creation, a black IPA. Check out its page here.

OH OH OH. Also we found three corny kegs that apparently still contained beer. We hooked a line up to one of the exit ports and a delicious oatmeal stout came out. This was brewed SIX YEARS AGO. And it was still delicious. Well, I'd since purchased a 5 gal whiskey barrel that was sitting dormant, so we racked that stout right in. As of this writing it's been 5 days and the aroma pouring out is absolutely heavenly. Can't wait to bottle that!

Anyways, up next we're looking at a brown ale. We've got a recipe in the works (basically an extract tweak of this, and can't wait to brew!

Lastly, if you're looking for the old blog for nostalgia, here's the URL:

I forgot the login/PW so I can't even point anyone here. Oh well.  Found it! Added a post pointing here!

Anyways, cheers to beers!
