Hawkwind Brew

[MARYANN SULLIVAN]

Greetings to all, Concerning the Hawkwind Beer, yes, indeed, that thread was
happening for a while, I haven't been doing much on the computer lately, so
the Hawkwind beer may still be in the brewing over on the other forum. Beer
isn't the first state of alteration I think of when I think of Hawkwind, I
suppose it can take the edge off, but why do that?  Please, don't
misunderstand me, I'm not making a judgment here, at all, even though I
never was a drinker.  I can understand taking the edge off after 12 hours or
so, listening in the state I'd like,  just the right vibe will do it.
Sometimes a bit of valium is needed for the edge.  The high from drinking
was fun, but too much payback.   I did try getting into beer in college, but
would always hand off my giant sized nearly full cup to some guy who'd like
it much more than I did.  I'm told like coffee, (which I also don't care
for), it's an acquired taste.  I used to just hang at bars with friends, but
usually the only thing to bring me to a bar is a major concert.  Of course,
I dig the hooking up, before and after at the bar, don't mind if I want to
step outside and find a place for some different scented air.  As long as
nobody's hurt, it's all good.
I've got a good friend who's making beer, he's not into the Hawkwind scene,
(his loss, he thinks you need to be on meth to enjoy it, ( I suppose there
are a few on the list that know a lot more than I would about that). If I
did that stuff, I might even try to drink some beer for the come down from
that, I remember that was no fun.  My friend Is starting out with making
small batches of beer, and has won lots of awards.  
Good luck to all in your endeavors, and if they make you or others happy,
that's great.  

Peace,


The disappearing Mary

P.S.  I'm going to be at it on this computer forever catching up.

 	If Carl Anderson is still reading from amid the nappies and the 
linguistics, he may be able to give more detail on the story of his I'm 
about to tell, in which he followed the Reich plans and built a small- scale
orgone accumulator in which he deposited a homebrew vessel in order 
to brew `orgone beer'. I think that this would be `correct' in a number of 
ways higher than mere politics, if it ever happened and I didn't just make 
it up from my memories of long evenings drinking less exalted hop products 
with that same linguist now-parent... Yours,
