Brit living in the USA-Hello

[Lanky94]

Hello all.

I am lucky enough to be living in the USA ( British).

I go home once a year and love tasting some of our fine wares back home . I have lots of favourites, including some Adnams, Doome bar, Spitifre, Woodfordes ( and lots more).

I also really enjoy some of the craft ales from the USA, my fave is Honkers from goose island, but there are many others- sweetwater 420 springs to mind.

Its time for me to start brewing my own, which is something I have never done.

I have some gear arriving soon to make my own mash tun, yeast plate and some other bits.............all of which I learnt about on this forum.

I have 2 kits to make I bought back from the UK ( woodfordes Wherry). I will brew these first to get me going. My wife like a good drink too, but she likes the blonde ales. I am gonna try the centennial in the recipe section.

I look forward to speaking to some of you soon.

Cheers.
Nathan.

ps....sorry for all the dumb questions I'm gonna ask!

Welcome! Sounds like you are off to a good start! Where are you in the US, and what brings you here?

I'm sure you will have a great time with your new hobby. There are lots of great people here who are eager to help. Remember, the only dumb question is the one which isn't asked...

Welcome to the hobby, and the group, from CO

Blondes are wonderful. I think they are rather underappreciated.
