Happy Brew Year!

Andy is a mean home brewer, his beer turns out great every year. But this year, we tried something different and went to a brew your own place. They have all of the ingredients, specialised equipment and storage facilities to create your own brew. Best part, the not-so-aromatic hop odor doesn't permeate throughout the house (mind you, this a necessary evil and a sacrifice I was always willing to make considering the delicious outcome).

Last month, we decided to brew a Dog Head Fish IPA clone. It was a ton of fun - during the two-day process we did it all, from milling the grains to bottling our brew, which is totally yummy I might add. We called it Fuzzy Head, inspired by our very own fuzzy pal, Miles. See our cool label and more pics from the two-day process here

That is so awesome! I love that you guys were like "I want to do that!" and you found out where to do it, and then you WENT AND DID IT. I'd be like "I want to do that!" and then I'd take a nap.

I want to see a photo of a finished bottle with the label on it! In your hand! Or in my hand!
