The past month I have been assisting as a guest brewer at Yasigi Beer Garden and we have been learning a lot from each other. About 4 weeks ago I helped the head brewer come up with a safe yet original IPA recipe using the ingredients he already had on hand, purely out of timing luck it happened to be ready for New Years Eve. So we tapped it and served it for New Years Eve for a live band party. My first beer on tap, I was like a celebrity. People were literally coming to me and giving me handshakes and hugs for making a beer that has flavor. It was a pretty great experience, and I think the owners are breathing a sigh of relief that it is selling well. I am still not getting paid but whenever I go down to help brew I get free food and beer so it works out.
