It’s odd, I used to be able to drink whatever kind of beer and didn’t really have a taste for what’s good or not. I mostly stayed with your lighter beers, lagers and such. Since I started brewing my own though, my requirements for what makes a good beer have definitely gone up and my tastes have strayed toward the darker flavors. We currently have 5 bottles of Porter, a little over a case of Brown Ale and now almost two full cases of Irish Stout. Oh, and there’s 5 gallons of wine that I’ll be bottling around the first of the year too.

I think that I’m set until after Christmas. I’ll probably be pretty busy soon anyway, given that our baby is due “any day now”.
