Nice thread, folks!
Myself:
(in no particular order)
1- Make beer that *I* can enjoy, by tailoring to my likes/staying away from dislikes.
2- Make beer that friends 'may' enjoy, but if their tastes aren't mine, I'm not gonna brew a whole batch of whatever unless I like it, too hahaha.
3- Brew enough to have 3-4 on hand at any time, and have a good rotation.
4- Brew the same recipe at least three times and hope for relative consistency.
5- Brew a beer my Dad will finish over half a glass of ----hopefully this summer will be the ticket! Gotta try for "an American light lager" (without naming names), as much as it personally hurts. THAT will mean I can brew beer if Dad can get to the bottom of that glass.
6- Enter into competition with more than three total entries and place top three.
7- Have someone ask me "Hey have you got any more of that _______?"
8- Get into All-Grain brewing.
9- Read more about the hobby I love so much.
10- PASS the BJCP course.
So far, I'm doing alright on #1 and #2. #3 is hard but by August I should be good. #9 is getting there.
#6- success! Off to the NHC round two!
#7- success!
#8- success!
#10- check back in the fall. But likely a 'repeat customer' since it's a heck of a lot of information!
