I haven’t brewed in a while and all my yeast cultures died on me, so.. I’ve been thinking about getting more standard ale yeast (probs just the cheap dry stuff) and just brew up all the old shit that’s probably no good anymore but is better than tossing it.. what’s the worst that can happen, right?

I’ve got stuff for like 6 different brews.. such a waste if I don’t use it..

And then when I have my shit together again I’ll go back to making my fancy “found fruits” tart/sours (it not at all fancy, but it is economical, and often well received)
