		<title>Brew #10: Canasta Dry-Hopped American Pale Ale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For my 10th brew, I decided to make a beer dedicated to my favorite local band, Canasta. Not only was this beer dedicated to them, but I also gave them half the batch, as they needed some cold brews to cool them off in their stiflingly hot practice space. For any interested homebrewers, the recipe [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brew #9: KRK ESB</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For my 9th beer, I made my version of an ESB. During the Craft Brewer&#8217;s Conference, I received some Riwaka hops from New Zealand, so I was eager to try those out. This beer is named KRK after an acquaintance of mine who passed away on April 10. I only met him once, when I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brew #8: Batch #008 Wheat &amp; Rye</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in March, during the height of the Batch 9000 frenzy, I made Batch #008. My 8th batch was an American Wheat &#38; Rye beer. The recipe can be found here: http://hopville.com/recipe/174968/american-wheat-or-rye-beer-recipes/batch-008 Overall, I was quite pleased with the way this one came out, but it could have used a bit more hop aroma.

		<title>Seriously overdue update: European Vacation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you follow me on Twitter, then you already know that I was in Europe for 2 weeks last month. I could probably spend about 6 hours recounting the fabulous time I had during those 14 days, but I will try and keep this post limited to the beer-related fun that I had. I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trying the Burnham Brown Redux.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I cracked open a bottle of the 2nd version of the Burnham Brown (which I brewed on New Year&#8217;s Eve). I was super surprised by the clarity this time.
