    Redemption!

    OK, long story, sort of. In January of 2009 I brewed an Irish red ale extract kit. In February 2009 I had a massive seizure that nearly killed me. By the time my thoughts turned back to the beer in my fermenter it had been there for over 2 months, resting on the yeast the whole time. I went...

    A Successful Saison

    I just took my seven day gravity reading of the Northern Brewer Saison kit I brewed last weekend. It started out at 1.052 and was hovering at 1.011, which I think is just fine. And of course I tasted the sample. I'm pleased with the fact that it exhibits the characteristics associated with a...

    It's Beer!

    I'll have to admit that I wasn't ready to believe it until I opened the lid to my fermenter and looked inside. Speaking of which, someone really needs to put a warning somewhere against sticking one's head in the bucket the second the lid comes off to "see if it smells like beer." After the...

    Another MD Newbie

    I thought I'd stop in here first and say hello from Waldorf, MD. I've got my first batch ever in the fermenter and am looking forward to bottling day in about a week. And to brewing day number 2 in about a week plus one day. I've been lurking around the forums for a couple days and you've got...
