    You know what'd worse than the kilt jones?

    The homebrew jones! I brewed Irish Stout this afternoon. It's in the fermenter now. It'll be ready for bottling in about a week and then it has to age until St. Patrick's Day. I hate waiting that long!

    Ye sound like a man after me own heart. I've had friends joke that they need a fork and knife to enjoy some of my brews.

    At one time I made my own ginger beer - the real stuff, with real ginger root -brewed in a gallon jar before diluting and bottling. Glorious drunk cold in summer or warm in winter. I think I still have the recipe somewhere.

    The only thing to do is keep on making brews, bottling it up, brewing more, drinking, bottling more, so that after a while you have always got something to drink on hand.

    The only limiting factor is the number of bottles you have.

    Anne,
    If you still have that recipe I would love to have a copy of it. I love any kind of ginger products and would love to make my own ginger beer. Sounds spectacular! Thank you!

    I've made ginger ale before... more like the soda though not fremented. Used the leftover solids to make crystallized ginger!

    Have to disagree... the worst thing is waiting for shellac to set before I can place books on the shelves in the library at my home that took nearly ten months to complete. Just another three weeks to go...

    The only thing better than brewing a batch of homebrew is brewing kilted!
