We often forget that there are a lot of people outside the happy bubble we live in that don't even know that beer is a key component of "the good life," and one thing we can do as Cicerones is to spread that knowledge.

Unfinished Business
As I mentioned in a previous post, the inspiration for batch 300 came from Weyerbacher 12. Skip, my co-conspirator in the the brewing process, had never had this beer, until we put that right yesterday. At around 2 years old, this rye barleywine had become a bit more candyish, but still had some good hop balance. The body is so amazingly heavy that watching the bubbles rise slooowly is reminiscent of Motor Medic. How I wish we could find some more of this great beer. It's better than it sounds, kids, and in around a year we'll be enjoying (hopefully) a similar beer in abundance.
