So It Begins

Being Sunday, in that lazy October air in Southern Louisiana, four gentlemen gathered to commence action concerning a plan that had required considerable collusion and therefore had taken place under the utmost of secrecy. A plan that only ninety some years ago would have put them on a collision course with the law, and of course Carrie Nation. Not to be dismayed, these aforementioned gentlemen assembled with the express intent to craft a better beer from the purest of water drawn from a Talisheek well. Now you say a tailed tuxedo and top hat is no suitable attire to be brewing better beer? Nay! It is the only way for mustachioed and monocled gentleman to approach such an esteemed task!  
Upon completion of a three-tiered brewing stand, having been welded by an artisan in the swamps of Morgan City, at a capacity to brew 10 gallons in an afternoon, the scene is set for a bold journey into the future of home brewing. Kinsmen, brethren, cast off these chains of beer mediocrity and follow us bravely as we strive to go where frankly thousands have gone before, only in a much more interesting and irreverent way! To the Mash Tun!
