I hate to admit it, but it has been 2 months since the last brew. A lot has been going on and I just fell off the wagon for a few.

For anyone who doesn’t know, lagering is a very similar process to my previous beers which were ales, but you ferment the wort with a different type of yeast and at different temperatures. Regardless, this is an experiment and it feels just like the first time brewing beer again. The…
