2012 Year End Review

2012 was quite a productive year.  I brewed around 100 gallons of beer and cider; made my highest abv beer to date (EoTW Stout); made my first lager; blended lambic with two types of fruit and experimented with a number of ingredients.  Some ingredients I used this year included:  chocolate, oak, home grown hops, Zythos hop blend, smoked malt, local fruit and 'wild' yeast.
