Hello from Newfoundland
Hi guys. Some of you may know me from various forums here in Canada and some in the US I visit from time to time.
I see some familiar names in reading some of the posts.
Well to introduce myself, I live in Mount Pearl, NL and have been brewing AG for the past 6 years and mainly belong to the MoB ( posting there the most )
I love talking, brewing and drinking HB.
I do a simple cooler tun mash and ferment in conicals. I have a temperature controlled lager fridge to ferment in and also a fridge to lager in.
I keg most of my beer as do most of my home brewing friends.
Nice to see the BrewNosers up and running.
Looking forward to contributing to this forum.

Re: Hello from Newfoundland

I see your last name is Legge. Any relation to Matt Legge by any chance?

I'm a Newfoundlander living in Halifax. I'm from Stephenville Crossing originally, grew up in Stephenville. Its good to hear that there are some all grain brewers back on the rock.

Yeah, quite a few that I know of around here. A few of us get together for big brews every now and then, and we socalize besides that.
Stevenville eh. I know a Paul Keating from there who is on our MoB list.
Jimmy, I don't know him, but more than likely if we aren't directly related, we are related down the line somewhere. There were only 4 brothers that came over to settle in Trinity Bay centries ago. I'm originally from Heart's Delight. Ask him when you see him next.
Cheers

Re: Hello from Newfoundland
I am in St john's regularly for work, and have met a few of the gret brewers and beer advocates (big A and little A) there. I'll have to post when I'm heading back, perhaps have a brew night, or at least a pint at Yellowbelly.

You talking about Frank Mac. ?

Re: Hello from Newfoundland
Yup, Frank. And his cousin (?) who is an AG brewer, you probably know him. Dwayne/Duane. And a younger guy, another Tony, getting into brewing.
Will keep in touch on my next trip.
