All brews are going well! There's a few pictures of my beer fridge floating around on my new and strange facebook page which my brother ordered me to get. I'll see if I can find one and remember my HTML.
There we go. Looks pretty, pours a great beer. Has been shifted inside of late though. I've got a wheat beer on tap after the lads drank almost all of a 19L keg of pale ale in one night. The Porter is in the secondary fermenter after having a stuck fermentation and is now slowly recovering after a little application of heat and some serious shaking. And lastly I have a James Squire Golden Ale clone in the primary fermenter. I altered the recipe to give it a little less sweetness and a smoother maltier taste. Well, I hope I did.
Work is a bit hectic. I've done 21 days on and 3 days off with another 6 straight to go. A bloke rang up last night to ask for some more shifts after he'd quit whilst having a blue over his pay, the boss laughed him off the phone.
I ended up carrying 80 slabs of premix alcohol up the stairs into a spare room last night. I was sweating something shocking in the process and dirtied one of my new tops I wear when I'm not meant to be doing too much carrying. I was a little annoyed, and after arguing with the boss all through the ordering of what we're supposed to get in, I'd had a pretty rough shift. But just as I was leaving he hands me a $25 bottle of wine and thanks me for the hard work. I do really like this job.
Good job.
Good house.
Good beer (on tap).
I think it's time for brekky and the paper.
