I took a bit of a break from brewing for various reasons, the biggest of which is that we purchased a new house and have been remodeling it. Anyway, things are slowing down with that finally, and I was getting the itch to brew again. So, I gathered up what ingredients I had and ordered a few extras online and brewed up a Stout last weekend. I planned on brewing a Red ale this next weekend, but was low on 2-row (I used to buy it in bulk at a LHBS down in Santa Fe - which is about 40 minutes from me). So, I checked online to see when the LHBS in Santa Fe was open only to find that they shut down some time ago. What a drag - that was a pretty cool store. Plus, it allowed me to buy grains in bulk. Now the closest one is almost 2 hours away.
I can get some grains ordered online in bulk, but the shipping prices suck.
Ah well. Rant over.
