4 months of homebrewing, day 1 of blogging

TD Brewing is the home brewery of Todd & Dave - neighbors and brewing buddies from Marietta, GA.
  • TD Brewing generally brews on weekends while watching our favorite football teams score TD's.  (TD Brewing appreciates double entendres almost as much as double IPA's. )
  • TD brews at Dave's house because he has a temperature controlled basement and Todd does not.  
  • TD brews in the garage because Dave's wife hates the smell of a good wort boil.  
  • TD's mission is 1) learn how to brew some damn delicious beers; 2) drink other excellent beers as we brew; and 3) try not to drink so many other beers that we get drunk and brew beer that sucks.
We officially launched TD Brewing on 10/1/11 and my initial plan was to start the blog at that time, but we were having too much fun brewing.  We also have busy lives outside of making and drinking beer.  In the last quarter of 2011, we brewed and bottled our first 4 beers, so I am going to kick off this blog with a quick recap of those early beers.  We have ramped up production and already brewed 3 more batches in January 2012.  I expect to get things going with a flurry of activity to catch up on the last 4 months, and then it will even out.

Relax. Don't worry. Have a homebrew!
Todd

  1. Preparing to dry hop a black IPA today 2/4/12. The double Mai Bock is looking good for a x-fer to secondary and the ginger pale ale is finishing up initial fermentation. Tried a bottled Imperial Russian Stout oaked with Jack Daniels barrell wood chips...getting closer...this will be $$ with age.
