Well, my wife loves Bud. What can I say. I'm trying to impress her with my beer, so I bought a Bud kit. This one:

Well, damned if I didn't read fully before I bought it...it's a damn lager. So am I screwed, or am I screwed. I live in Wisconsin, so I can probably keep the temp during primary and secondary fermentation down around 57 degrees by putting it on the basement floor. However the directions say that I musn't put the bottles on the floor after it's been bottled. WTF? What difference does it make?
Anyone know where I can get a cheap $50 refrigerator or something?
Damn!
In other news, I bottle my first batch (dark amber ale) of home brew tomorrow. When I transferred it to the secondary, I tasted it....mmm it was pretty dang good. Tasted like flat beer!
Tomorrow I'm going try to skim enough away for a full beer. All I had was a taste when I racked to the secondary.
