All Around Newb
Hey guys, all around newbie here.. My Name is Steve and I'm new to the HRM, moved to Dartmouth at the end of last summer from Ontario. New to Brewnosers, been creeping around here for a month or so and very new to brewing. Put on my first Brewhouse kit last week with plans to slowly move into AG's in the future. I've found lots of useful info so far and look forward to learning from your experiences as I progress in brewing.
Cheers
Steve

Re: All Around Newb

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Re: All Around Newb
I hope to make it out to some meetings, unfortunately I'm a shift worker so we'll see how that pans out.

Re: All Around Newb
yeah, I do shiftwork too, doesn't always work out, but we have been trying to do other events other than that one day per month, which has been working great to bring out new faces and people from out of town as well.
