Puppies and Pumpkin

The Pumpkin Ale got switched to secondary fermentation on Saturday.  Apparently, it wasn't 100% necessary to actually switch it over, but it helped get some of the sediment out of the beer.  Also, it entertained the pups.  Win win.

As usual, Aaron did all of the work... I documented the process with pictures and played on the floor with the dogs.  It's a tough job.

Very soon after these pictures, the pups were banished outside to eat leaves and run around... and NOT contaminate the beer with their slobbery licks.  It smelled good!  They just wanted to taste it!

So now there is more waiting. 2 more weeks, actually.  Then we bottle... and stare at it some more before we can enjoy it.

 This beer making thing is testing my patience.  Also, this beer tastes like it may have too mush hoppiness for me (it's a word, I promise); but maybe it will taste less hoppy once it's done?  Here's to hoping... or else Aaron will have a LOT of pumpkin beer to drink before we move.
