Been away from the boards for a while. I haven't brewed anything for over a year. I had some medical issues that made it difficult to carry 5 gallons of water up a ladder to pour into my kettle.That put a damper on my brewing.(past that now) I'm getting older(51) and thinking I should slow down on my drinking. My 2 daughters are growing up (6 and 9)and I'm thinking I should find a hobby we can do together on Saturdays. I can get craft beer almost anywhere these days. None of the in-laws give a bless about any beer but Bud Lite Lime. Wife hates beer.
Every day I'm looking at 40 pounds of base malt I haven't touched in over a year, several pounds of hops in the freezer and 100's of dollars in equipment wondering why I'm not excited about brewing.
Someone help me out. Why should I not sell everything and just buy craft beer ? What can I do to get excited about brewing again?
