Brewing Fun

Have you ever tried brewing beer with a Toddler? Well nor have I but doing it on a cool Saturday is truly lots of fun. Last weekend it was a honey Porter and will be ready to consume in about a month or so. It is a dark malty type of brew so I am told and look forward to drinking it. I also bottled a American amber last week while Alex was napping and that should be ready the day of Thanksgiving for an added treat for the day. Brewing your own beer is not really a Stay at home parent topic but it does have some similer things. One being that during the brew you must watch over the batch to prevent it from boiling over which is similer to a toddler meltdown. Second a batch of good brew takes tender loving care as does a well behaved toddler. And lastly a sip of good home brew is very satisfying as is a goodnight hug and kiss from your loving toddler.
