Avery Brewing's Maharaja...one went down too smooth & I lost count. Next thing I knew, I was in the parking lot betting passing ladies on how many pushups I can do. I ran into the door casing coming into my house, hit a wall in the bathroom for no apparent reason, & woke up with a black eye & busted knuckles.
Now in my younger years, this would have been business as usual, but I'm nearing 40 so...this is QUITE out of character for me.
What valuable lesson did I learn? I learned that it's possible to brew a beer that tastes so good that an empty glass is unacceptable even to someone who considers himself full of self-control. I decided the next morning to brew beer.
That was 1 month ago & my Maharaja Clone has been sitting in my shiny glass carboy at 66 degrees for 5 days.
I also learned that 22 ounces is my maximum per 24 hour period.
