Eventually I’ll put up a post (with a video!) of the entire process start to finish…but that won’t happen for a while.

I’m also working on another batch of India Pale Ale that is fermenting in a carboy as we speak. Here’s the logo I put together yesterday using some old crusty crayons and some computer graphics…
