I don’t quite know why I didn’t realize I’d have to individually unwrap these and it’d be a pain in the ass, but there’s no going back now. Blue razz jolly rancher distillate soon. I’ve also got my sweet potato beer fermenting (it’s supposed to be pumpkin and sweet potato but the pumpkin I bought was rotting on the inside, so I just rolled with what I have). I also ended up making 80 dog treats from some of the spent grains from the beer, if pupper is happy I’m happy. Over all I think I’m coming back from my one year brewing break with a vengeance.

    Not knowing this was a literal, brewing at home community, I spent too long looking at the jolly ranchers and wondering how this fit into some form of TTRPG homebrew campaign.

    Hope your strange distillate makes for a pleasant drink though!

      My brother did GM a one-shot set in a brewery staffed by magical creatures once. He was trying to draw in a sister who is into homebrewing and no previous experience with TTRPG. It kinda worked, she was willing to play but then kept correcting my brother when he got brewing specific facts wrong.

      I am already a fencsitter on TTRPGs, I want to like them but find so many people wildly annoying during them. If ever I run into another intersection fo TTRPG fan and homebrewing fan, I’m out. It was so terrifically pedantic and unnecessary.

      Appreciate it! And hey maybe the blue razz gnomes are holding onto the supply of delicious artificial flavored sugar and we’re on a quest to slay them and allow all the folk to drink it and be merry. (There’s a reason I’m not the dungeon master in my DND group, I’m not the most creative)
