Howdy Hey from Birmingham, Al

[notbob]

Hello everyone!

I met homebrewer_99 in my LHBS Saturday, and he turned me on to this place. Glad I stopped in. I'm addicted to this new sport!

I love the IPA's and the hops!

Hey Bill, did you make it to the Pub I recommended?

Looking forward to hangin' out.

Cheers!

Al

I already replied to your PM.

Unfortunately, I didn't make it to the pub. I wasn't feeling up to it. (WHAT?!?!?) I know, it sounds so much not like me.

Maybe I'll be able to make it Tues night if I can convince one of my team members to go with. (If that happens then the majority rules that there's no meeting!)

Welcome aboard, Al!

Color me confused, whos where? Is Bill in 'bama or is Al in Illinois?

I think Bill is razing Alabama this week.

Okay, I guess that makes sense if I take a moment to re-read the thread title

All except for 4 days, I've been in Alabama for 3 weeks.

I did a net search last week and found a LHBS called ALABREW in Birmingham. I went there and visited for a while, purchased a couple of books and bungs and sampled a couple of tasty home brews.

I go back to IL on Thurs. I'll be home for 2 weeks then off to Ft. Stewart/Savannah, GA for another 3 week trip.

I've only been in my office 17 days so far this year!

Hey, thanks for the warm welcome, guys. I have to check my settings. I didn't get any email notification.

I'm brewing with 3 other guys, doing all grain, whole hops, and all IPA's except one sensational Stout clone. We just brewed brew # 12 yesterday. I started in all grain. No regrets.

Started a small hop garden and have my first shoots coming out. I'll be sure to post photos.

Here's to homebrew nation!!! :rockin:
