Grumpy and intolerant 56 year old Englishman, who likes stout but can only afford really cheap continental lager, which I can no longer bring myself to drink, so I'm brewing my own, again. Although I made an abortive foray into the activity about fifteen years ago I would describe myself as new to home brewing (Jan. / Feb. 2012).
I like Plymouth gin and Pusser's Rum, both neat, and make my own wine.
