I brewed beer!

Last February with the Mr. Beer Kit that Eric got me, I began making a nice "Golden Lager." I know brewing beer should come naturally to me, but I actually had to follow directions.

Anyways, on to the brewing!

I stored the keg in my most obvious cool, dry place = the upstairs guest bathroom. Unfortunately, I'll probably only be able to make beer during the winter when it's cold....but there'll always be enough Shiner in the fridge no matter the season :)

After 2 weeks, came bottling/carbonation = add sugar and shake.


After another 2 weeks, the bottles went into the fridge for "conditioning."

And thanks to Felix for the name "Bruzo," combination of Bruce and Zoe.....(drumroll, please).....Bruzo Brew est. 2010! (You'll Get Smush-Faced)

So last Saturday, the moment of truth was upon us! Will it taste awesome? or like....just some bad beer?

Icy cold goodness

TASTES AWESOME!!!

Passing it around

CHEERS!!!

Cloudy or Clear....it tasted all good


We had to watch a beer-themed movie

Chugging... motivated by "Das Boot"....Ian won...but just barely ;)

I did plan on saving at least one bottle...but we drank it all....and it was very, very inebriating.....

And so the beer brewing was a total success! Thanks to all that came and drank! LONG LIVE BEER!!!
