Duck Dude got lonely. Axel is blowing us away living on air and still getting up and around. Hope I have that much spunk at the end.

Time for something bigger

When my cat had a reoccurrence of cancer the vet said the cat didn’t know it was sick. The kitty let us know it was time to let her go when she wouldn’t eat her favorite treats. 😢 still sucks to think about it. 🍻 Here’s to Axel.
 
Got me thinking where's @camonick been? Hope all is well...

Well…
I had a rotator cuff (plus extra) surgery on December 5. Was recovering from that and doing therapy twice a week. Was supposed to be released to return to light duty work with restrictions on January 29. Ended up with trips to the ER on Jan 26 & 27 and admitted to the hospital for another 4 days with blood clots (pulmonary embolisms) in both lungs. Now I’m recovering from that also. On blood thinners now and have a lot of upcoming appointments with various specialists. To say the least, I’ve been on a forced hiatus from alcohol for a few months now. Feeling much better now and finally back to part time work. I’ll have to see how much longer I have to stay on the wagon.
Thanks for thinking about me.

Hope you're back to 100% soon! I'll hoist one for you. HB Zappa Kellerbier.

Having a wee test after cold-crashing. This is from a primary! It's been a week since pitch with the mighty Voss, and apparently I only know how to make hazy beers...sigh. Guess the brown sugar was a bad idea.

Massive citrus hit in the aroma, and then evolving into melon as it warms. Taste is a lot of apricot and malt for the first bit, then into the Cascade earth/pine and a super clean finish. Nice!

It is clearing up near the top, but even with the slowest of pours from my keg, it still has some junk in suspension. 8psi on gas and a 2ºC fridge will hopefully get it clearing. Weird...whirlfloc, the mighty Voss and gelatine...still like this. Cheers...?:tank:

No matter, I have some backup brews while I recharge the keg.
