Warning! Fangirl moment!

One of my favorite authors just responded to a post I made on her fan page!

Wow!  Can we know who?
Her name is Jodi Taylor.

Great Success!  :badger:


Lightly  flavoured and easy to drink, but with near double the alcohol content of your bog standard lager. Bit low on the carbonation and a bit yeasty in the nose, but the general concensus around the table is "Go get more!"

Cool, Guardian85! Did you actually have labels printed up?

Then I just made a bunch of copies, cut them out, and glued them on with milk.
Yes, milk! When it dries it is a very good glue, and it comes off easily with water.

Ah, clever. It's a nice clear brew with good color. That dessert looks enticing as well.  :yum:

That's nice but the beer, what's the details of this beer?
Ingredients, temp brewed at?
I'm up to batch 46, fairly basic though.
Take my advice, don't listen to me.

Biggus Dickus

Yes, well done G-man, and congratulations on you first batch. Wish I could try it,...like the labels too, that's a nice touch. Most folks I know who home-brew never label their bottles. :bravo:

I'll admit to using a starter set with pre-prepared malt extract. Just a matter of mixing the extract into lukewarm water and add yeast. Fermented at room temperature for about a week and matured in the garage as it is slightly chilly there.

Thanks! I don't half-ass when it comes to beer.  8)

Buddy, you seem to be a happier bunny Buddy these days. Are things, hopefully, going better for you?
