It Has a Name!

Last night, our life group met at Cheeseburger in Paradise after a church meeting and Camann, Buck and I were discussing lots of things. We got on the topic of my beer and both agreed that my use of MikerobRew was a terrible, terrible idea. And I thank them for giving me their honest opinion. This is what friends are for. So we were trying to figure out a better name. We wanted to keep Ezekial in the name for sure. We knew that Ezekial was a phophet. It was tossed around that we could use a verse from Ezekial like "3:16 Porter" by Ezekial Brewery. Adam suggested Apocalyptic Porter since he was a prophet of the end times. Then it was suggested by Adam (Andy?) to call it "Prophetic Porter" by Ezekial Brewery. Boom! Brilliant! I loved it immediately and this is what I shall call it.

Also, we discussed the cover art for my eventual album. I had an idea in mind for a while now but they helped me focus my thought process and hone the look. It was just a very productive and inspiring night. I won't release details yet, but I'm sure there will be a post on it eventually. Thanks guys!

I put the beer in the fridge last night as it is technically compete, although they suggest to let it sit for another few weeks to let it condition more. Still, I think I'm going to try one tonight and see how it goes down. I'm quite nervous because it may either encourage or discourage me from making more beer based on how it tastes. I'll bring some to Thanksgiving, Deer Hunting and Christmas.

I've stopped shaving on Sunday. And I won't shave until Nov. 24th which is after deer hunting. Amber will hate this, but it is a rite of passage and family tradition every year. My uncles and I see how thick and lush our beards can get by hunting. It's pretty itchy right now but it will soon become smooth, spotty and greasy.

I'll post pictures of it, it is sure to disgust.
