    What are you doing with homebrew today?

    The same happened to me at the beginning of the year. There's one about an hour from me but the drive there is a pain and they close early. There's another about 30 minutes away but I am not crazy about it. I am doing my next order online today from a store that is in my state but is 3 hours away.

    I normally would but this is an experimental brew. Perhaps i should change the name to a farmhouse blonde or something like that? :)
