It's not an addiction, just a very passionate hobby!

In the 50's (3150's ofcourse) most of the world as we know it will parish in a mass suicide when a world wide shortage of delicious beer leads to irreperable outbreaks of depression. I was sent back in time with this web address to prevent mankind's imminent destruction.

Na, it was Google

i googled home brewing and you guys were the third hit.

 

[bdnoona]

I found this place by the suggestion of the home brewers over on Mikeportnoy.com/forum. Glad I did. This forum is amazingly informative.

 

[Spoon]

I frequent the green homebrew forum and have for years, but have become a little disenchanted in the quality of the posts. A buddy of mine linked me to this forum and I figured I would stay a while.

 

[AirRageous]

I was drinking a Guinness Extra Stout at the pub the other day and said to myself, "Self, I wonder if we can make some of this ourselves and not have to pay $5 a pint and have to sit in this stinky bar to drink it?"

And I answered myself, "I dunno but we can check into it".

So, I asked myself, "Where can find some information".

"I dunno, but I betcha someone's got a forum all about it", I answered myself.

So, we googled and "Eureka", there you was.

 

[HBHoss]

How did I find you? I found you quite hilarious so I stayed.

[IrregularPulse]

Just googled "brewing forums" when I got my first kit. First on the list. Everyone knows the first step to a successful hobby is to find a forum.

 

[avaserfi]

Someone mentioned home brewing to me and recommended a Mr. Beer kit. The kit seemed very simple based on my knowledge of brewing so I started searching and Google sent me here when I started looking for a forum.

 

[TxBrew]

Very cool compilation Skrimpy.

 

[grlz]

google here.... love google...

 

[Fred_Nerk]

I found this place by Google. (Second item on the list after Wikipaedia)

 

[hockeynut]

I went and bought some kegs from a guy in Columbus Ohio and he said that this was the forum to be on. Thought I would come and check it out.

 

[JoeMama]

I found this place through a place of a place. (Sorta)

I started out by looking up info on poker tourney structure (homepokertourney.com) and followed their links for building my own table(s) From there, I found my way to the forums of Scotts Poker Table (popular site for poker once upon a time) and it seemed that the admin went totally right wing and scared many off. 'The Perfect Man Cave' was where I migrated to from there (old mod from SPT) and they had a link to this place from there. Of course the 'Perfect Man Cave' is not complete without your keggerator or continuous flow of beautiful amber liquid - and its enhanced even more when you do it yourself.

At any rate, I am not quite a noob yet cause I have to wait til Xmas to get my brewing kit. I CANT WAIT!!

Sooooo many things to brew and try out!
Beer, Apfelwine, Wine, Mead... So many cool things to play with!

And I must say that I am glad that I found this place, and the people here seem to be genuinely cool and willing to help!

[hungrymonkey]

googled "excessive trub"

for a stout that I am brewing.

 

[JoeMama]

I was digging through the cushions of my couch searching for some change to buy another 40oz of Crazy Horse and I found this place.

Along with Jesus, the meaning of life and a couple of Cheerios that I fed to the hamster.
Its amazing what you can find in your couch sometimes.

Google.

Because if it isn't in Google, it doesn't exist.

Because if it isn't in Google, it doesn't exist.

I've found everything in my life* (including this place) through Google.

*Except for SWMBO: I found her through Yahoo.

[HiramAbiff]

google search of course

 

[histo320]

My local supplier said "go to our website and check out the links," that is what I did, and this was the only one that seemed decent with people who actually know what they are talking about!

 

[Talloak]

Theres a forum for just about everything you can think of. I recently became interested in home brewing, so I googled home brew forum and guess what...

 

[blackwater]

I in passing asked the guy at my local orchard if he was doing cider and he said yes. Then I said can you press me a Barrel and the next thing I knew was rolling a whiskey barrel into my basement and looking up this site on the net for clues on what to do!!

Can't wait,
