National Homebrew Day

Today is National Homebrewing Day, and so I brewed 2 of the 3 suggested recipes for the Big Brew celebration.

I made the Scottish Ale 80 Shilling Export, and the Rocktoberfest.

If you really want to know more, I live tweeted while brewing: http://twitter.com/theasintheas

Utica Bus Tour visit



Today, a great group of people came to visit the AS. They were touring the art scene in Syracuse, led by artist Susan D’Amato.  We drank some Art Beer, and then recorded an excerpt of the radio play “The Man Who Was Thursday,” originally produced by Orson Welle’s Mercury Theatre. Everyone was a great sport, both about being squished into our small space, and in doing a great reading.
