The First Beer

No post for yesterday. For that I apologize. Scrabble was played, and some highlight words follow.

Sunday was spent looking for a new place to live with a fenced in backyard and brewing my first beer. Things went really well for the first 3 1/2 hours. At the last step (placing the airlock in to the lid of the primary fermenter before securing it) the grommet in the lid pushed through and broke. After some careful searching via google it looks like all is not lost. However I won't know until I check in with my local home brewing supplier tomorrow. Beginners lack of luck I suppose. I'll let you know how it all works out tomorrow.

Until then, I look forward to the impending inauguration of one Barack Obama. Peace and love.
