Hello everyone. I’m from Maine and began homebrewing about 8 years ago and went strong for about 3 years. Got a decent setup, equipment, etc. However, started nursing school, had a kid, got married and got out of the game. Currently moving into a much, much larger home and have the garage space for expanded space to setup shop. I want to transplant my hops that are growing at my house as well this spring when the snow melts to the new place as well and I have grand ideas where they’re going.
“Problem is”, I’ve got a 1 year old now and I’m more or less nervous about how to brew and not be a bad role model. I’m a 1 beer a night, after work kinda guy. I’m thinking do a 5 gallon brew every other month or so and that should keep me reasonably sustained. Just never really thought about how to do it with kids around and not look like bad, basically. Anyone else struggle with this? Also, any major changes in the homebrew scene in the last 5 years since I’ve been glued to textbooks and trying to build an adult life?
