Brewer in the Dark

I had planned on making a post this week about the Smoked Wheat that was recently bottled when I ran into a problem. Although not really a brewing related problem per se, it makes talking about the Smoked Wheat difficult. You see when I came home from work on monday to my new apartment that I just moved into none of the lights would turn on, clocks were off and it was basically dark. Yes the power company shut off the electricity to my apartment. Apparently the previous tenant had the power scheduled to be turned off early but didn't really let me know.

In any case, this means that the Smoked Wheats that I had tossed into the fridge were nice and toasty warm. Between you and me, I don't think tasting a warm beer is going to give me a very accurate impression of how it turned out... at all.

So until my electricity is turned back on this weekend I have nothing new for you readers. As for B brewer, he is currently gallivanting around Austria and Hungary. Hopefully he will have some brewery notes to share with us all when he gets back! In the meantime, crack open a cold homebrew and enjoy this Independence Day. Cheers!
