I should have introduced myself a couple of weeks ago, but ended up crying wolf by asking for advise first.
So........ here goes..
Hola! My name is Mike. I live in El Paso, TX. I'm not sure what made me decide to start home brewing, because about 2 months ago I only had a beer every now and then. It must have been one of those epiphanies you get in the middle of the night. Now 2 months later.. I love beer! I've tried more craft beers in the last 2 months than I've had in my entire life prior.
I've bottled one batch (and drank half of it so far). I have to admit, it's a very good batch of beer. It was a Black Dog Amber Ale kit from midwest. I now have a German Christmas beer I came up with ready for bottling this weekend, a Belgian Wit I created with the help of an online calculator on it's 9th day in primary, and an Oktoberfest Lager also from midwest I put in the primary on 11-11-11.
I'm looking forward to getting set-up to keg as my next adventure... Just don't have the money yet. Oh yeah, I've discovered that this is a very expensive hobby, but I don't seem to care!
And that's my story...
Nice to meet you... all you other hop heads out there!
