Riding the Waves to Eternity: Hangin’ with the Cosmic Surfer

I’ll drink anything, me

Well, maybe not anything.  Last year I made a batch of home brew which I had planned to be ready in time for Christmas but it went wrong.  It was my own fault – I used dried malt instead of malt extract and miscalculated the amount which I needed by a substantial margin leading to a significant lack of fermentable sugars in the wort.   It was drinkable but I would never serve it to anyone else.  Anyway I forgot all about it until about half an hour ago and have just dug a bottle out from under the stairs.  It remains something which I would not serve to anyone else, but it quenched a thirst after some painting of the walls in one of the bedrooms.
