To buy a six pack

Rocking the boss’s boat so

All too familiar
With everything in the fridge
It’s time to go out

No Geeks at Happy Hour
Crashing computers
Leave precious little free time
For beer and haiku.
Written by Captain Hops.
References: Today an update from McAfee Anti-Virus caused computers around the globe to go belly up. Don’t expect to see many computer geeks at happy hour today. They will be fixing these computers. Perhaps it’s time to switch to Norton or maybe buy an iMac.

Experimental Brewing
Into the kettle
I throw a fistful of spruce
And hope for the best
Photos and haiku by Captain Hops.
References: Yesterday, I attempted to make my first spruce ale. I have been waiting for the opportunity to recreate a vague memory I have of an ale I tasted at a forgotten brew pub in Oregon. That ale may or may not have actually had spruce in it, but I remember this tender, citrusy, piney essence, it wasn’t even really a flavor, just a barely tangible sense. It was amazing whether it was real or not. Anyway, now that I am brewing, I decided to use some of the fresh spruce buds just sprouting on the trees on my property. I created an amber ale with a touch of cascade hops, added a little wild flower honey and threw in some spruce buds at 60 minutes and 5 minutes. I am fermenting with California Ale Yeast and will let you know in a month how it turns out.
