I resolve to.........

Brew more and better. And if I am brewing more, I am drinking more

 

Brew more and enter at least 4 comps.

Since moving into my new house, I haven't brewed at all. I don't have anywhere that is currently climate controlled to put my conical. I have to work on that...

 

I should enter a homebrew competition.

I resolve to learn harmonica and sign language.

 

Oh yeah. I also resolve to learn to play my guitar that my wifey bought me when we were engaged. Been married almost 7 years. She said it doesn't matter that I haven't learned. She only bought it because she knew I wouldn't spend the money to buy one for myself.

 

Experiment with small batches.

 

Brew more and drink less.

Not sure how that second one's going to work out....

 

Small batches my friend. I regularly brew 1-gallon batches (almost weekly) and I now hove more diversity in my pipeline and the rarity of each brew encourages me to drink less. almost all of my 5-gallon batches have been session ales for the last 6 months or so.

anyway, my resolutions:

1. brew more lagers

2. find a good way to use 100 lbs of rye

 

Not much for resolutions, but I do plan on

• brewing more small BIAB batches.
• looking for a lagering fridge
• finding a larger kettle for all grain 5 gal. batches
• mastering the Stone Imperial Russian Stout Clone
• finding some more Goose Island BCS (as much as possible)
• working up a BCS clone

That should keep me off the streets and out of the bars!
