It takes a little longer, is a little more work, but it is loads of fun! I belong to a home brew club now. It’s just beginning and we call ourselves the Dells United Frequent Fermenters or D.U.F.F. for short. Ha! Ha!
We are having a home brew competition on the 22 of this month at the German fest in Lyndon Station from 10 am to 2 pm. I’m entering an American Pilsner and an American Pale Ale at least, and if my Robust Porter finishes, I may offer that one as well depending how it turns out.
I’m also experimenting with wine and have been busy all summer picking blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and now grapes. Wine is a long term project compared to beer and adds another dimension to the hobby.

Your descriptions continue to fascinate and illuminate!
I'm finally on theBubbler just "for fun" tonight (instead of checking this and that and testing features included in the updates, etc.) and I wish I would have seen your post a month ago. Lyndon Station OktoberFest! That's an event I would like to try! How did it go? Give me a heads up next year, will you?
Christian was telling me about summer bummers in brewing. Good to hear that you got past your first bad batches and did some good Summer stuff.
Love the D*U*F*F name!
Thanks for sharing the info you've shared.
Regards,
Keith
