I am 100% with you on that one. This hobby is as fun as it is rewarding. I'm just getting my feet wet and already have the itch... haven't been to Vegas in a while so I know it's the beer!
Congrats on your first brew! Glad to hear it came out great. I just brewed my 2nd batch. It really is an itch!
The wealth of knowledge on this site is amazing and everyone seems to be very friendly and open. Helped me thru my first batch as well!
