yesterday annie, cameron, and myself finally met the neighbors (across the street) who would not stop shoving homebrews in our faces.  they couldn't have been nicer.  i opened a bottle of coffee stout for them although its only been in the bottle a week now.  they seemed pleasantly surprised, as was i, but i know this brew will just get better the age.
i moved the pale ale i cooked up monday into a secondary for no reason really.  i just wanted to try it.  had a terrible time making and cooling it, but things are looking pretty solid.  i will not being using a bucket as a fermentor ever again.  the juniper comes out exactly the way i wanted it to, and i think the kaffir lime is a nice touch as well.  hopefully bottling before i head down to lawrence/kansas city on thursday.
coming next is a summery wheat ale (think sam adams summer ale).  should be brewing tomorrow, so join me in the evening if you are so inclined.
cheers!
