Hello Everyone

Post by Tunny » Fri Mar 22, 2013 1:52 pm

I've been brewing kits and extract/steeped grain recipes for the past few years. I just recently made the step into all grain brewing and I am loving the flexibility and creativity it gives you to put together some great beers. I just entered my second batch into the Garrison Home Brew Off, which was a cool experience. It was great to get some professional feedback on where you need to improve.

I was looking for a good site to expand my brewing knowledge and just happened to stumble on to this site. Pretty cool that it's local. See you guys around the forums.

Were you down at Garrison last night? Did you meet any Brewnosers? I think we made up about 50% of the attendance :lol:

"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.
