Keg tapped!

We got into the first keg on Sundy. The beer is good but I think it is a little on the flat side. Maybe it needs a little more time conditioning, or maybe this is as good as it gets. If this is the best it gets, bottling may be the way to go. We'll see.

Hmmmm

I started thinking about my next batch. I am leaning toward something lighter like an american ale or a steam beer. I'll have to peruse the catalogs for a kit.

Kegged!

The brown is now in the can waiting for tap day Feb. 23 and beyond. The time and effort saved in kegging is tremendous and I wish I could keg every batch. I don't know if I drink my beer fast enough to keep it fresh in the kegs. We'll see how this batch goes, maybe I'll just have to drink more and faster.
