Charlie P mostly for me. I like reading up on the science of brewing, but I highly doubt I'll ever understand water as well as Palmer. I like looking for things to add to my arsenal, but mostly on brew day it's pretty common stuff going on.

And after meeting Yooper in person, I simply cannot fathom her being calm on brew day!

I had to say Ringo.... I don't brew like any of them but all of them if that makes sense. On some beers I will follow my recipe to the letter and stress out if the mash is off by a degree.Like ones for Thanksgiving/Christmas or Weddings I need it to be spot on .

While other times I will look at the mash and just grind up chocolate or carared just to see what would happen .. Hay its only 20 bucks or so and if its a little off who cares .

And I always look at things and say I wonder how it would taste or can I make beer in it.

As the others I think I'm a mix, but I chose Palmer in the poll. I get deep into the science discussions, but only so I can get them figured out, put them in my process and forget about it and brew. Yes I want to make great beer so I'm dealing with water chemistry and all the other factors, but once I get my water additions nailed down per style, I can just add those to each recipe and not have to think about it again. I'm all for getting my process as efficient and easy as possible so I can sit back and relax. So Palmer till I get it figured out, then I can Charlie around.

Other, but Ringo just doesn't say it.

I make a large range of beers, but know enough about brewing that throwing something together doesn't appeal. I know what parameters need to be closely controlled and which ones don't, and act accordingly.
I make consistently good beers, but almost never brew a beer exactly the same way. And even though I tend to brew to style, I never enter contests. I care about what I drink, and not even slightly about what someone else is having. I don't have hassles in restaurants, because if it isn't Mexican or a pizza, I'm eating in a brewpub.

Zapap, Although I am a geek for the technical stuff.
Even though I am preparing for only my 5th and 6th batches, I find myself approaching it like I do with food; What flavors will work, how can I tweek a recipe and come up with something I can't get somewhere else?
My entire kitchen gets soaked with sanitizer and I go through way too much Iodophor, but other than that, I just really enjoy the process. Including bottling.
