Novel Idea for Lent

[Burning one]

I just bottled some home brew myself last week. CoE guidelines involve animal products and eggs, butter, etc. I just use barley, water, hops and yeast.

I must say, not trying to brag here, the recipe I use is pretty yummy.

that's great! i've yet to take the plunge into home-brewing, but i've been very tempted to try it, and browse the online HB forums quite often, dreaming. it seems overwhelming at this point.

so what style is your brew?

i'm particularly fond of the Belgian ales (Affligem, Orval), and am now really starting to enjoy the sours (Duchesse de Bourgogne = i'm drooling), and especially geueze lambics.
