Homebrewing at Ballyvoddy
I'm the Sourdough aficionado, using natural yeasts to raise my bread. Now – and it's been brewing for a while (pun very definitely intended) – the Husband is just after taking delivery of his own yeasts as he prepares to embark on a long-discussed, thought-over and well-researched foray into the world of making beer at home.
After we were both spoiled for choice with microbrewery beers in NZ, it's become more and more difficult to drink the rubbish that you can find on tap in most Irish pubs (with an honorary exception for Beamish, of course, and both the Franciscan Well Brewery and Bierhaus in Cork). So, this could be a whole new world. And, finally, there's some good reason for the dozens of empty beer bottles stored in the spare room!
