Cheers from Manchester, CT

Hi all, just found the site here thru a random search.. I have no idea what i was searching for, must have been beer related, lol! I'm definately a beginner at home brewing, but i already love it. i've done 3 batches so far. all were kits bought at my local HB supply place. the first batch was done on a borrowed kit from my uncle, a 6 or 7 gallon kit that he recieved as a gift. it was a "american ale" kit. came out not bad, my fiance loved it. this second batch i did was a "amber" kit, i like it better than the first, and the woman thinks it tastes like earwax. :cross: guess i like earwax.. i just brewed my third batch a few weeks back, a raspberry witbier ( forgive my spelling), and i am waiting to pry into that. i will have many noob questions i'm sure , so don't be too harsh on me.. all these damn abbreviations are tough to understand, even after reading the threads on them.

Welcome welcome, Rocky Hill here. You frequent John Harvards? We should do an HBT meetup of all the central CT people on this board, there certainly is a lot of them

i have been to john harvards a bunch of times, but i haven;t been in a while. i do love the food, and honestly i can't remember the brews. i have family right on parsonage st across from the high school. as a matter of fact, he's the uncle that got me started in home brewing

i'd be down for a gathering at some point. once it gets warmer, i will be focusing on my keggle system, and my BBQ skills. ( i love that show BBQ Pitmasters). once i get my ribs down, i will be moving on to pulled pork. i was thinking of doing a BBQ and Brew day, but that will be later in the summer.
