Finished reading a book about farmhouse ales today, completing a series of books on sour beers, wild beers and farmhouses.. and I now know my long game aged sour beer approach and have formulated a saison recipe (in my head) to add to my slowly evolving theoretical repertoire.. sure would be nice to have a location for our brewery sorted soon so that we can move towards a point where I can actually make these beers..

For the meantime moving onto a book which I have had for ages but wanted to read after the aftershock of intense studying for my postgraduate course had died down.. all about yeast, 50+ pages down this afternoon and mainly just revision at this point, interesting though.

I have a list of 18 brewing books I am awaiting subsidy approval on so I really should make efforts to get through the ones I previously bought through the subsidy.. probably about 70% done with them though.
