Hello from Wyobraska

[PastorJasonHarris]

Howdy all,

I am new to the forum and would like to say hi.

I am a Lutheran Pastor in the western Nebraska panhandle. The climate here allows for cool dry comfortable evenings almost year round, perfect for an evening pint and stogie. My wife and I both love beer and home-brewing.

We have not brewed in a while but I am eager to get a new batch going. Because we are still somewhat inexperienced, I was thinking about going back to a simple English bitter. My wife wants to try to emulate Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

I look forward to "hopping" into the forum.

Welcome to the forum! I've never made a chocolate stout but that does sound good!

Look around and feel free to ask any questions you might have.

Again, welcome.

Welcome to HBT from down in Colorado!

You are the second, that I know of, pastor here at HBT. BrewPastor lives down in New Mexico.
Both the English bitter and the chocolate stout sound good to me.:rockin:

I grew up in Bayard, NE and still consider the panhandle my home. My son is considering the LCMS seminary in St. Louis in a couple of years and have has some great discussions concerning Martin Luther and his life. Wouldn't it have been a 'hoot' to have done a batch of homebrew with him?

Good to have you in the forum. I've never done a stout but I am contemplating an English Special Bitter. Let us know what you pick.

God Bless

I read your footnote, quote from Martin Luther, to my father-in-law who is a retired LCMS pastor and he finished it before I was done reading it!
