Hello!
My wife got me started with a new kit for an early Christmas gift with orders to keep her supplied with porter or stout. (She is a rare and perfect lady) I have brewed and tasted the ingredients that came with the kit (a pale ale) and it turned out pretty well. I have my wife's stout in the fermenter now, and it's smelling great. I'm pretty excited about this new hobby. It appeals to my obsessive and meticulous nature. I love fiddling with intricate and esoteric stuff. I already have plans for all-grain equipment. I will probably build much of it myself. I am a contractor, so building is in my nature.
I have been lurking around the outside of this site for some time. I decided that I should probably join up and not be so creepy anymore. This site has been a wealth of information so far, and I can't wait to further my knowledge and experience.
Thank you guys, for the help so far, and hello from one of the younger homebrew states!
