Homebrewing

Well I have started the process of brewing my own beer, hilarious. I went to this store over the weekend with a couple of friends called Brew and Grow, which is located at the end of a dilapidated road in a warehouse with no sign of life and a door that looks like it should have a beware of high voltage sticker on it. I almost walked right by it the first time, but there was a small sign on the door that just had work hours, no name just the hours. I thought I would give it a try, but was sure it was locked, it opened into a funny painted stairway and then into a very nice looking very well lit store.

This place was strange, yet easy going at the same time at first. In the store you kind of felt like you were doing something wrong. The store is completely committed to only two things growing plants (yes probably illegal, but if you are growing regular plants this place is great too) and brewing beer.

While walking around sipping on beers, they were letting us taste, I picked up one of the books and decided that yes I would give this ridiculous adventure a try.

So in a month I will let you know if I made a good beer or blew up my kitchen.

Thanks Dan for that find.
