A random text this morning from my sister reminded me of this long-forgotten blog, and I opened it on my phone to discover it's been three years since my last post. Three years.
Not sure if there are Chapters to the gradually evolving story of my homebrewing adventures, but if there are, I have no doubt begun a new one or two since my last post.
Much has changed in three years. Most importantly perhaps the fact that my beer continues to edge ever closer to actually being palatable. No less significant, though, is the name change.
When I first named my home brewery back in 2012, the name "Serendipity Brews" was very expressive of the point I was at in my homebrew journey, as well as the journey itself up to that point.
By 2017, it seemed less fitting, and I decided a change was needed. After a good bit of word-play and consideration, I finally settled on "Counterpoint Brewing and Blending." For reasons that are of course my own, every component of the new name says exactly what I want it to say about my brewing approach, philosophy and methodology. For reasons that are as well my own, this post will not spell it all out. Hopefully it will be revealed over future posts, but to fully articulate that meaning here would be to risk sounding trite, pedantic, and insincere.
I'm looking forward very much to getting back into this blog. Who knows what topics I may explore in future posts.
For now, the name of the blog remains "Serendipity Brews." This phrase still has meaning and relevance, even if it's no longer quite right for the brewery itself.
