[Loch-Ruadh] Brewing Class Review

[Julie Self]

I was really impressed with the class.  Padraig made the whole process look 
so easy that I am considering a batch of my own.  I don't know when, for 
sure, but I have gotten over the deer-in-the-headlights feeling that I used 
to get whenever someone said "brewing".  Thank you!

Thank you Elizabeth and Randy for the use of the house.   The "one butt" 
kitchen was great for this sort of thing.

Loch Ruadh Rocks!

Beam me sideways, Scottie. These people don't know which way is up!
