Cool site

Post by Juniper Hill » Fri Dec 07, 2012 11:36 am

Hi,

I made beer a few times in University..it was a kit out of a can, and I didn't really know what I was doing. It kinda sucked. That put me off brewing for a long, long time.

I have been making wine, mead and cider for many years since then and am gonna try brewing (again) in the new year. This time I was going to try one of the extract kits with some grains or maybe a Kriek style fruit beer (kit). I way too much of a newbie to think about all grain, but who knows.

Recently got a few corny kegs so I can force carb some wines and cider. Will definately reserve one for my first brew.

Cheers! :cheers3:

Thanks for the warm welcome. I found the site by searching amateur brewing Nova Scotia. I had no idea there were this many home brewers in the area.
