Lacings

Why are simple things like this so satisfying? Because it’s a hobby, but it’s also a craft and a passion.

Hmmm...lace and a dog butt all in the same picture....Good thing the dog isn't wearing the lace. :lol:

Seriously though...that looks like it WAS a pretty tasty beer.

"A craft and a passion" Exactly. I remember my early brews had little head. I was so excited when I poured a brew that laced the glass. Good for you Alb, thanks for sharing.

I made a beer that ended up being called "Cat Butt Alt Bier" once. It was good.

Your lacing is pretty.

Good lacing adds a certain elegance to your homebrew, definitely. It's always gratifying to see. Homebrewing is a hobby, an obsession, and, for some, a form of therapy.

Lacing not just for shoes anymore. I digress, what do you attribute good lacing in a beer too?
