I "slowed down" brewing once, but I got over it.
you might want to put that in the beer quotes thread, i could see it on a t-shirt

mrnate, when life gets in the way of brewing, I start thinking about future brews. I write recipes; I get inspiration from things I read, movies, things people say, conversations with friends, food I make/eat, etc. For example, this year I've only brewed five times, 1-Janurary, 2-March, 1-April, 1-June. BUT, I do have 12 beer recipes in what I call "my current recipe list," 10 recipes in my mead and braggot list and 44 recipes in my "to brew later" list. It helps keep the spirit alive. cheers, j
