Home of the BrewNosers

Hello,

Thanks to everyone that makes this site possible. My name is Josh and I've recently moved to the Halifax region to start a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Dalhousie (Geriatric Medicine Research). I'm originally from Thunder Bay, Ontario, but for the past 4 years I have lived in Waterloo, Ontario. My only experience with home brewing is helping out my brother-in-law with a few all grain batches over the past couple years.

I will soon be starting my home brew career from scratch, so I'll be looking to this site for hints on equipment buying, ingredients, recipes, and general brewing tips. I am planning on setting myself up and starting out with a couple of extract kits from OBK. As a hophead, I'm also hoping to start growing some of my own hops this summer.

I look forward to learning from this community, cheers to beers,

Josh

How did you find us?

Welcome!

you can also check out Noble Grape in town for extract recipes and ingredients.

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure these guys will be able to answer all your questions they seem to know what they're talkin about lol.

Hi Josh,

Who is your supervisor? I am a post-doc at Dal and one of my projects is analyzing microbiomes of mice to associate it with frailty. Maybe there is some research overlap?

Welcome!

I go to meetings at Dal and Bedford Institute of Oceanography quite frequently on lobster related things. You guys in HRM are lucky to have Noble Grape who have almost everything to start out, pretty annoying to wait weeks and weeks to get some basic things.

Welcome, Josh.
