Stout Stout
by Bill Mendyka
Oh, a Stout is the best of a breed,
of dark beers that sustain one in need.
It imparts a warm feeling,
but sets the mind reeling,
if too many are quaffed without heed. |
A Hoppy Man
by Bill Mendyka
At one time I made a fine brew,
that was crafted with hops that I grew.
The taste was intense,
with a strong resin sense,
and malt flavor pervading all through.
Can't wait 'til next hop crop is due,
so another new potion I'll stew,
that will match or exceed,
all the flavors, indeed,
that a Hophead expects in his brew. |
The Sage
by Bill Mendyka
An old homebrewer always partakes,
of whatever a new brewer makes.
And he'll offer advice,
when the beer's not that nice,
but drinks up if it's got what it takes. |
