Back from Germany... time to brew again!

So, my plan to blog while in Germany didn't really pan out, partly due to a lack of internet access and partly due to being too busy doing the whole vacation thing. I was hoping to do a wrap-up post or two when I got back, but work's been kind of crazy lately and with various summer commitments (including softball three days a week) I haven't gotten around to it yet.

In the meantime, however, I do have a few brewing updates to post about. First, we just kicked both our Altbier and Gose, which means we only have our Dunkel on tap right now. We actually have three kegs to put on (our Pilsner, Belgian IPA and Black IPA--yes, two IPA's at once; I think it's a sign of the apocalypse) but none are carbonated. Oops. Gotta get on that.

The other immediate plan up our sleeves is to brew our Czech Pilsner this weekend. The Czech Pilsner is for a competition sponsored by Pilsner Urquell. If we win, we get a trip to Pilsen in the Czech Republic! No pressure, right?

So that's the short of what's going on. I promise to post about Germany eventually, but for now here's our vacation summed up in one picture:
