Beer and wall update

BEER!

The nut brown that has been fermenting for 2 weeks was bottled on Thursday night. The consistency was fairly light unfortunately. The flavor was good with no contamination. It id currently carbonating and will be drinkable in two weeks. The Amber we are fermenting will be ready to bottle later this week. Then there will be a complete blank slate. We are slated to brew three batches of beer for the upcoming tahog trip! the last weekend in November we will brew a porter, a nut brown, and an amber. the hope is to be able to keg these. Bottling is beginning to get a little cumbersome with 2 batches brewing at any given time. 5 gallon kegs unfortunately cost $100. Oh well capital budgeting. I bet the net present value of all future beer (cash) flows is win!!

Wall!

The structure for the overhanging wall is all in place. half of the paneling is up as well. The hold up is T-nuts. we have screw in t-nuts ordered for the sections of wall already up. For the rest I have an order of 1000 pound in t-nuts. we'll need to purchase more but will do that when the sections of wall are ready to go up. Things are progressing but never fast enough. As an addendum to the previously mentioned time line the ultimate deadline on the project is January 20th. This day will be spent in celebration all day by climbing and all night drinking to no more bush in office.

hanging issues still for the wall mainly consist of pads. I am not sure where or how we are going to get padding to fall on when climbing. we have a number of crash pads but I am sure that we are going to need more. we'll start scheming on that when I see what Will was able to dig up and what we have.
