New Section: Home-brewing Beer
|
I recently took up home-brewing beer, something I've been interested in doing for a long time. So naturally I've added a section about it, under the "Adventures in" header at left. The pages on this topic are still under development, so check back soon for more.
By the way, I'm immensely pleased with how my first batch turned out.
