An interesting set of short stories centred around brewing. The blending of science fiction, brewing and quirky scenarios are interesting. Always made me keen for a beer 🍻

Quirky, at times engaging and yes, I am getting better about picking up the beer and brewing lingo.

Short stories set in an interconnected sci-fi-esque beer universe…I’m at least there for the conceit.

THE BREWING CLOUD 🍺🛸👽🍻
“It’s good that you realize that you can’t live on charity forever. But for now, until you get yourself into a more stable position, you need help. And when someone offers it, you shouldn’t refuse.
It’s easy to despair. One thing you can bet is that everyone you’ve ever met has felt despair. Even the ones who look like they’ve got everything. And each of us might be there again. But as you get older, you learn how to deal with it. You start learning that, and I know your life will change for the better.”
