Hi.
New member from Winnipeg here. I'm originally from Moncton, but have been living out west since 1999.
Anyhow, I've been a homebrewer since about '96 or '97, and went all grain about ten years ago. For the past few years have been getting into mead making. I'm a member of the Winnipeg Brew Bombers homebrew club, we meet once a month from September to June. Good bunch of brewers and beer lovers.
Mike (aka shepody)

I lived out in the Praries in Manitoba (Pilot Mound) for 10 years before moving to NS, so I know Winnipeg well. Lovely City. I'm originally from England.
Any way...Hi!

Actually to be precise I'm from Riverview, not Moncton. My parents still live there. So we really did do the opposite.
Thanks for the welcome guys!

What part of Riverview? My wife's mother taught at Frank L Bowser for over 30 years.

They were living over on Grandhill Drive, by the Whitepine Baptist Church, for 30 years, and that's where I grew up. A couple of years ago they built a retirement home on Monarch Road, by the Parkland Nursing Home. I've only visited their new place once.
