BEER BOTTLING

Last night was the beer bottling fiasco of 2011. I bought bottles yesterday afternoon. I cleaned said bottles with the sanirinse cycle on the dishwasher. I prepped all of the bottling equipment. I poured the beer into the bottling bucket which had a very questionable screw on spout. Said spout began to leak. In an effort to get the spout tighter, I popped the spout off and lost quite a bit of beer. All over the floor. At 9 at night. With the spout being held on carefully and leaking all the same, we got about 30 bottles instead of 48. You see, the spout popped off another time and leaked throughout. It was pretty messy and at first frustrating, but by the end it was just funny. Now it's only two weeks to see if the beer tastes like death or not.
