Default I love the smells of brewing beer

I had no idea how awesome the smell of malted barley, cascade hops, etc would be... I think I'm in love! Just had to share CHEERS!

My favorite part is when I first add the hops to the boil - NICE!

I'm constantly burying my face in the boil kettle and breathing in the fantastic smells. The steam's great for my pores, too.

Thank you, and I thought there was something wrong with me!

Back when Latrobe Brewing was in its heyday, these smells filled the air in the entire city - a wonderful aroma that is sorely missed, and one I remember growing up with.

But now I have my own....

careful on that airlock sniffing. the first nostril full of sulfer smell will make you think twice.

Oh, yeah. Hot, wet grains, like GrapeNuts in heaven. I like the kettle too, but would rather smell the mash and my cups of hops pre-addition.
