Crap...hobbies spiraling out of control
Since the new house has a decent amount of room, I had mentioned earlier about putting a pool table in it. Of course, who can play pool without having a few beers so I mentioned building a kegerator. Well after a lot of reasearch I'm going to go ahead with the kegerator buildup but now I'm no longer interested in buying kegs of beer. Nope. I'm going to finally step up and make my own brew. As if I didn't have enough hobbies already, I'm sure this will only help to further kill my attempt at a monthly budget. Planning on building/buying the equipment soon and will begin brewing next month. I'm pretty damned excited. Now I've just got to decide what to brew first. Hmmmm...
Sodalime is good.

I'd love to make a hearty oatmeal stout but seeing as I'm one of the few people who enjoy stouts I doubt too many friends would be eager to try my hard work. I'm leaning towards some form of brown ale at the moment and maybe a porter for the second keg (planning on doing two five gallon cornelius kegs).
