Last year, I started brewing my own beer. My first beer, a baltic porter, was decent, but every beer after that turned into what a Polish cab driver once called “taczka z kurwa” — or a wheelbarrow of [expletives].
Beginner Problems With Homebrew
Every time I brewed a beer, there was something wrong with it. Oxidation was the most common issue, but I also had lack of hop bitterness in a few IPAs, and a Christmas porter that was way too aggressive on the cocoa nibs.
My beer would turn into kurwa, and I’d figure out why. Then I’d brew another. Rinse and repeat. There was a lot of trial and error, research, reading, and reflecting.
But now, it’s time for me to brew a beer that I won’t apologize for.
But now, it’s time for me to brew a beer that I won’t apologize for. I want to make a beer that tastes exactly how I want it to and that I can be proud to serve to others. My goal is to brew a beer that’s so good, people will say “Oh, damn, this is good.”
The last beer I made was almost perfect, although the final result ended up just a bit oxidized. So much so, that I couldn’t drink more than a glass.
