Homebrewing update

We got a holiday batch in fermenter yesterday; it's already bubbling away. It will be an amber with ginger and orange, brewed with a belgian-honey tone. With French hops, no less. Should be interesting.

Our last batch was a lager, which needs to do a secondary fermentation in cold temperatures. We decided to do that in the garage, which shouldn't freeze but will remain cold- right? Well, it's been darned warm, up to 75 degrees last week!, can't wait to see how that goes. Now it will be a steam style pilsner.

We're finishing off a few batches from our stock in the basement. It's always great to get another batch in bottle on the shelves.
