So I set out to make my first partial mash batch today... after the boil I decided that since it's still pretty cold outside here in northern New York I ought to take advantage of the biggest refrigerator in the world and cool my hot wort in the great outdoors (my back porch).
I went back inside and cleaned up a bit 'til it was time to check on the pot. As I walked down the stairs I could see from the window that my makeshift tin foil lid had been flown aside by the wind.... or so I thought! Two very large dark bushy cats surrounded my wort as if seeking their next meal. Like a mother protecting her cubs I chased them away but now I can only pray that they didn't piss in my beer.
My pending honorary names are 2 Cats Ale, Cat Piss Ale or Ale-y-Cat.
