Incompatible hobbies. - Brew Dad - Nothing but beer


Incompatible hobbies.

I have two hobbies that I really enjoy. These two hobbies are completely incompatible. In fact, the minute I start one hobby completely rules out doing the other. I know the first hobby is obvious. I like to brew my own beer, and I like to drink said beer. I’ve even be known to have a commercially made beer. Sometimes, I even review it and put it up on a blog for all to read. ;)

My other hobby is shooting. I bet its all clear now why they are incompatible. I have a Minnesota Permit to Carry and like to visit the range as often as I can. There is nothing quite so cathartic as poking holes in paper at 5 or 7 yards, or beyond. Then I get to clean my pistol and go home. One the pistol is stowed I can sample my other hobby.

For safety sake, and for the lives of my family I never mix the two.

I was planning on placing another review today from the five remaining beers in my fridge but luckily remembered in time that I have a range visit planned for this evening! Now, I know logically that the liver processes the alcohol from one beer in about an hour, but it comes down to the principal of it.

Perhaps I’ll review when we get back tonight!

Cheers!
