Default Cracked the first one tonight!

Tried the first bottle of my first brew, an English Brown ale. Success! Great taste, color and aroma. I'm hooked. Racked an American Pale ale to the secondary tonight, too.

My first "Light Ale" was the best beer I've ever tasted, right up until my nut brown was ready for consumption. THen my chocolate stout.... its never ending, at least I have a steady supply of new favorite beers!!!

Be sure to stash a sixer or 2 for a few months, I know its hard, buts its worth it.

I think that your first brew tasting deserves a dancing banana!
