How Old are you?

[Orpheus]

Thanks. It's too expensive to get sloshed with anyhow, atleast for the poor college student that i am. Fortunately though, I will be going back to Munich on the 10th of December to go interview for a couple apprenticeships and some breweries. Plus Oregon State has one of three brewing/fermentation studies courses in the nation. So hopefully i can turn this hobby into a career while i am still young. Anyways, I thought it was worth me coming out and letting everyone know. I'm the youngest on here, woohoo!!! :rockin:

Did you just come out of the closet at HBT!?

Oh, as a younger brewer! Phew! I started young too (in my late teens) and for all the right reasons.

Ok, no one hate me for this, but i found this forum and had to lie about my age because i thought this was a great forum to be a part of. I'm currently 18 till July. I started brewing when i was 17 having my dad get me all the supplies and have done upwards of 80 gallons since. My travels in Munich and Austria have left me with a true love of Beer. So anyone out there who is part of the Corvallis brewing club or anything, i wish i could come =[

Either way, Prost

Hey uhh, just saw this post, and I did the same thing, kinda lied about my age cause I wasn't sure if I was gonna be allowed to post if I said I was under 21, im 17 until next month, hope that doesn't weird you guys out, but by looking at the posts above, it seems like ur ok with it, which is awsome.

oh yeah and I gotta say it. YOUNGEST HERE YEAH!

 

[Klainmeister]

you yay-hoo!

Prost

It seems we have a pretty diverse group here, and that is good... for diversity.

Pretty even distribution from 21-45.

Those under the legal drinking (and hence brewing) age in your country: Just know that if advice you get on the forum contributes to you getting sloshed on HB and wrecking mom's car, or worse, no one here is in the least bit responsible.
But, If you are indeed mature enough to handle the responsibilities on your actions then all I can say is welcome and Prost, of course!

I could have sworn I voted in this but must be my memory is failing me. 48 here and getting AARP applications in the mail all the time.

 

[jontanner]

I am 17.

I'm startin' young!

Go brewing!

I was thinking about doing this same poll. Turning 45 in 2 weeks and just became a grandfather 3 days ago . That's what you get when you marry young and your son follows suit.

I think I have you on this one... I'm 37 and a grandfather of two - a 3 year old and a 2 year old. But, I cheated... I skipped fatherhood and went straight for Grandpa. SWMBO is 44 and started relatively young, as did her two oldest. Right now my 3 year old granddaughter lives with me - for another month anyway... then Momma and daughter ship out to Gulfport MS with their new Husband/Daddy, and I transfer to Virginia. I will be completely crushed when I come home and there is no little voice calling out, "PawPaw, PawPaw, PawPaw"....

That being said, I just swam 2.5 miles from Cocos Island back to Guam - and I even beat the one legged guy! Not bad for a Grandpa who smokes and has a beer gut!

EDIT: Ok, I cannot tell a lie... both the one legged guy AND the 88 year old Japaneese guy beat me... But I finished the race, darn it!

Better to be a young grandpa than an old one IMO.

My step daughter made me a grandpa the day before my 45th birthday. I keep bugging her about not being able to wait another day. Hell she was already 2 weeks late, what's one more day

 

[Ooompa Loompa]

Found this post while I was searching for something else, and though I'd bring it back from the dead. I'm 26

 

[Rick_R]

I'm 26

I'm twice your age less three times the number that evenly multiplies the largest prime divisor into your age.

[DeathBrewer]

27, pushing death.

 

[Revvy]

I'm 43 and I have a goatee.

 

[Snakebone]

You're 46?

 

[DUCCCC]

I vote Log, because he's got wood!

Oops, wrong thread. I guess I've got that damned old-timers disease.

See, I forgot to 'fess up on the age too, but I'm 39, closin' in on 40 this April.

 

[mrk305]

43. Too old to get another woman, and damned grateful that SWMBO is five years older.

 

[Rick_R]

You're 46?

No, I'm 48 -- but you did the math correctly (for some reason I had 52-6 coming out 48 -- what can I say, one of those days, quick reply).

Don't worry, ricky, at your age we don't really expect lucidity.

 

[hootman]

[Silviakitty]

36 here as of last November.

 

[beta pleated sheet]

I think I'm definitely the youngest. I'm 19. Now I feel like the baby of the group.
