The second day...

Last night before I tucked my first brew into bed, I took a quick look at the air lock. I was more than a little dissapointed. I was hoping for that sucker to be going off like crazy, signaling the start of a magical beer process... FERMENTATION!!!! I was a little worried that I totaly screwed the pooch on my first attempt at brewing, but I managed to slip into a deep sleep anyway.

I awoke this morning to a wonderful scent perfuming my room... IPA! Yes, the fermentation had begun, and with it, the wonderful smell of beer. Oh boy, that was a good moment. My sludge is beginning its journey into the world of beer'hood. I was sooo happy that I even began my quest to learn everything brew-related by joining one of the top home brew forums on the net, http://www.homebrewtalk.com. Within hours of signing up, I was welcomed to the community with a big Prost!

Anyway, I have begun toying around the idea of creating a mexican style beer. I shall call it Beer'migos. (beer amigos, get it?) Well, that is copy righted by me, so don't tread on my freedom and try to steal that.
