[Scooby_Brew]

44 and 10 My first batch was a pale ale out of a can. I didn't like it. My second batch was a pale ale made from extract with grains. I loved it, and I love brewing ever since.

[billy915]

29 years old and I've been brewing for about 3 years, off and on. My first 10 or so batches were partial mashes and came out really well, then I discovered HBT........After reading countless topics and gathering info I jumped into all grain. Haven't looked back since.

 

[WortMonger]

35 here, and been brewing since I was 14... so 21 years off and on. It is such a part of my life I don't even get excited about it... I stay excited about it! I would die if I couldn't brew beer. Bread is also something I better not have to do without

[Malticulous]

Started in 95 but I didn't brew for most years since, I didn't even drink for many of them. I'm 39. Doesn't matter cuz I've brewed enough the last three years to make up for it.

[eanmcnulty]

I am 46, and I have been brewing since April 2009. I brewed back in 89'-90' about 5 or 6 times. All I had back then was the Papazian book and the LHBS owner for guidance. With this new fangled internet device, home brewing is a completely different activity. The beer is actually good! I am on batch 23.
