What’s Next?
It’s been a busy few months, and I needed to step away from the blog to address some family and work priorities. But it wasn’t time away from brewing or the local community. Since my last post I
- accepted the role of vice president for my local homebrew club,
- helped to organize and run a charity barbecue for ~600 beer/homebrew enthusiasts,
- went camping with a few hundred of my closest homebrewing friends from the Mid-Atlantic,
- humbled myself a few times while breaking in new brewing methods and a new system,
- judged in a few homebrew competitions to help brewers refine their recipes and techniques,
- discovered I was a history buff when I began geeking out over things like recreations of historical beers and studies of women’s roles in whiskey,
- and sampled more beers than I care to admit.
More projects, experiments, and adventures are lined up for the coming months. I’ll continue to share the things that I find interesting, extend some of the great conversations I have with other enthusiasts, and explore answers to some of the questions that arise during my journey to better brewing and beer appreciation. I hope you continue to enjoy (and join) the conversation.
