Thar She Blows

Yeasty foam spattered
All around the fermenter
Damn the clogged airlock!

Written by Captain Hops.

References: The fermentation of my Irish Red got overly rambunctious, clogged up the airlock, and blew the lid off my fermentation bucket. It was not a pretty sight. Or smell.

Frustration

An empty six pack
Scattered among strings of lights
That don’t want to work

the events of late last night
as I clean the mess

His pour quality
Was very poor quality
What a friggin’ mess
