Trick-or-treaters must have been disappointed when they came to my locked door and empty, dark house, but Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. The candy! The costumes! The scares!

Last Sunday, I was brewing. Granted, it was in my kitchen, and the result is a little under 1/6 bbl, or 5 gallons. But I was brewing. I happen to hate silence, most of the time. So for this brew day, I had a Pandora station based off Stevie Ray Vaughn. And it was good. [...]
