An Intro

[chuckrock]

So I suppose it behooves me to make an intro post if I intend to be a part of this forum community. The jury is still out for me on whether I will become a regular or not.

I am a regular over at the sister site, beerforum. I know many of the other regulars there are members here too. I hadn't been motivated to come over here until last night though.

I don't brew, although it could happen in the future. I enjoy tasting new beers and talking about beer. I live on Long Island, originally from NYC. I enjoy almost all types of beer though I tend to like hoppy beers better than sweet beers.

anyway, cheers.

Welcome! You've come to the right place if you like to talk about all things beer.

Welcome!

Sweet and hoppy are not mutually exclusive. I had an Oskar Blues Gubna yesterday and it was very hoppy and very sweet. Almost like sugar water hop tea!

Absolutely, and i didn't mean to indicate that I thought they were. Gubna I thought was too sweet, despite the hops. I think i rated it a 2.5, meaning it was average. Typically if a beer is sweet I won't love it; despite the hoppiness.

I'm not a fan of the Gubna either.
