Well, it is about time! (audio)

catching up after several weeks away from here....

well needed rain coated some leaves on the walk this morning

Another 6 kettles but who knows where June went?

Yes, it has been a while. What happened to June?

The "Band of Brewers" did get to bottle on June 6th which I missed due to business travel but I was able to join them to bottle on June 30.

Here are the cap codes for the current set of six kettles

A = Ayeska Alt	Our version of Alaska Brewing' Alaskan Amber.. Awesome
G = Goibniu	A Great rendition of a true Scottish Ale
P = Poon IPA	Keith's version of a great IPA made in Boston. It's great, who needs Boston?
PP = Potbelly Pilsner	A very drinkable beer. A nice fruity flavor with a nice dry bite
(blank) Sam's Dam Yummy	ACBBD – A sweeter version of Stunner
SW = Summer Wheat	It's a close resemblance to Owen O'leary's summer wheat

a case from the current batch

and the updated tally of the 286 kettles, 138 unique brews.
