Hello and Introductions

[julia_1]

Hello everyone, I wanted on this special day of the American Homebrewers Association being 44-years-old, to introduce myself. As of 12/22, I've been the Executive Director for one year with the AHA in existence since 12/1978.

There is lots to share and learn too. I've been a homebrewer since 1990's and have brewed over 100 batches of homebrew including gaining several BJCP medals, Mazer Cup medals and also one Silver medal in the National Homebrew Competition for my and my husband's Old Ale.

Fun treat to share is the very first issue of Zymurgy. Check it out here and I look forward to contributing to this forum over time. Zymurgy Magazine, Issue 1: Throwback to December 7, 1978

Welcome to HomebrewTalk, Julia!

And a happy AHA anniversary too!

Thank you for the link to the 1st issue of Zymurgy.
Was that published as a newsletter at the time?

Cheers!

Welcome and cool news on the annual membership discount. Been thinking about joining for a while and the discount pushed me over the line.

Cheers

Hope you saw reply below in thread [...]

Sure I did.
Zymurgy was calling itself the Journal of the AHA!
Interesting read, a journey back in time. Wow!

Any idea what circulation was around that time?
