Hey folks, time for the monthly post again. What’s everyone been up to?
I’ve not been that active in my cleaning with a side effect of beer-making hobby lately, I am sad to report. But planning perhaps a California lager.

I don’t have anything in primary right now as I’ve been way too busy for way too long BUT, I just planted a bunch of wine grape vines. I know it’ll probably be a while before I get anything out of them but I’m really looking forward to eventually harvesting! We’ve got 3x zinfandel, 4x merlot, and 4x chardonnay.
I’ll probably end up making a pyment or two before trying straight wine - I haven’t done a straight wine before and I’m more comfortable trying to sort out some adjuncts with a mead, so I think I can flesh out the flavor profile a bit if the first harvest or two doesn’t yield enough for a reasonably sized batch of “traditional” wine.
