Palindrome day.

0102210.
I bottled my next batch of beer today. It is a porter brewed with alot of traditional ingredients, basically everything but the kitchen sink. The recipe comes from the joy of homebrewing, and is supposedly the number one homebrew recipe in the world, though how anyone can claim such a thing is beyond me.

Whew. Long list of stuff. I can't wait to taste it once it has carbonated. I am not sure what I will make next. I have a few ideas.
There is still snow on the ground here so I haven't been riding in awhile. I am really itching to get out on my mtb though. The snow and cold is also making climbing outside not feasible. I have felt very strong at the spot the past few days. I guess that week off did me good.
