First Blog

Good Day all,

It was bound to happen, I got sucked into blogging. Well at least I'm blogging about my favorite past-time, Alcohol, or the making of it :)

This blog will be where all can read about my latest beer brewing or wine making adeventures.

At the time of this post, I have successfully brewed up over 30 gals of fruit flavored wines from Island Mist kits. My favorites Blackberry Merlot, and a Green Apple reisling.

Now it's time to start making beer. I am currently brewing what I will call Loving Brau, I hope to clone my favorite beer LowenBrau. I had a difficult time finding a recipe, but the people at the beer and wine makers pantry in pinellas park florida, helped me find, and purchase the ingredients need to make a Munich Hellas Pale lager. The style of Lowenbrau is made after.

I will include the ingredients, and my step/instructions to make this first batch. I am currently boilong the wort, and in 6 minutes will add the second amount of Hops.
