Homebrew updates

The ginger beer has been fermenting for over a month.  We pulled a sample out and gave it a try tonight.  Good flavor, needs a bit of refinement.  It's going to be high alcohol content for a beer, but not in the wine range, more around 8-9% abv.  We're thinking about adding a few of the "cookie" spices to it and calling it gingersnap beer.

All in all, it's going to be a success, but it's going to still need some work.

Oh, and we started a batch of mead tonight, using a sherry yeast.  That's going to be good.
