Merry Christmas

I will need more beer
If I have to assemble
All these toys today

Written by Captain Hops.

Kids toys today are ridiculous. But I can’t complain. Santa left me a barley crusher and 50 lbs. of Pale Ale Malt under the tree. I guess he wants to encourage my recent all grain home brewing experiments.
