Lawrence beer lovers unite to ferment personal brews
BY BEN SMITH
"If you like a sweeter beer, you can make one," said Dennis Sundermeyer, electronic technician with the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets. "If you prefer a certain type of hops, you can tailor your beer to your tastes."
Homebrewing can lead picky beer drinkers to original concoctions they can't find on a menu or in a store.
Sundermeyer has been a home-
brewer for about 14 years and favors German maebock and hellesbock beers. He is a member of the Lawrence Brewers Guild, a group for brewing enthusiasts that helps brewers develop their own beers.
Sundermeyer recently began sharing his hobby with several of his colleagues. Adam Hock, Wess Mason and Justin Rohrer began to learn the fermentation process.
Hock, senior network system administrator, and Mason, network specialist, joined the brewer's guild about four months ago. They have
been brewing about five gallons of beer a week.
Rohrer, doctoral student and graduate research assistant, just started accompanying his friends to meetings.
"It's kind of like cooking and yet a bit like a science experiment," Rohrer said.
Sundermeyer said the chemistry involved in brewing beer was ancient, yet still contained mysteries about the production process.
