Pieces of home..


We recieved the rest of our household shipment about 2 weeks ago which was great. Now it feels like a home. Yet something was missing, good beer....mmmmm. So I set out on another mission to aquire a mini fridge that I can ferment the nectar of the gods in and keep the temperature fairly stable. After a couple trips to Serekunda and LOTS of bargaining (because thats what i do) I drove off with the perfect setup and began brewing the very next day, which was also our housewarming BBQ but I couldnt wait any longer. As expected it didnt go very smoothly, many messes in the kitchen none of the water fittings were compatible to the cheap plumbing fixture here, but its done. A couple active yeast explosions later and we are on our way to good beer. As for Nikki she did some searching online and discovered that she could order her favorite crackers to go with our beer and cheese (by the case). She was pretty excited and we now have a couple more pieces of home. Anyone know of a hops variation that can grow near the equator im all ears.?
