After the great refridgerator purchase there was much excitement. For the beer in the fermenters was almost prepared for the Great Tasting! "I Wish I Was a Pale Ale" would be the first great brew, already kegged and pressurised for the coming of the Great Tasting! In preparation for the celebrations and festivities, a second great brew was commissioned. "Weizen almost Wasn't" would play understudy to the pale ale in the disastrous event that the Pale Ale would be consumed too quickly and no beer would be left for the Great Tasting. A second magnificent keg would be filled and pressurised to ensure that the revellers would not go without beer. And a Wheat Beer nonetheless! Oh these are days of happy times!
There would be little room for error in the days leading up to the Great Tasting, and to make sure that the festivities continued, the Master Brewer would continue labouring, day and night, to make the people happy. There are taps to be fitted, gravities to be taken and fermenters to be racked. The Master Brewer had many jobs to do, but he would make time to do them all.
