I'll be the first to admit that I jump into things quickly. Sometimes too quickly, but the brew bug bit, sank it's fangs in good and I'm completely smitten! It's been a whopping 4 days since I boiled my first wort. After reading all the rave reviews of EdWort's apfelwein I decides I had to make some for Christmas. Granted I won't have time to carb any up to see what it's like carbed and flat, but I'll save half the batch to be primed and bottled for a few weeks later (maybe New Years)! So off to the LHBS for another carboy and now it's in primary sitting next to my nut brown ale in the bathtub. I've never seen a bathroom that made my mouth water before! 
Anyway, just wanted to throw a thanks out to this forum. I'm new but have been lurking for a few weeks and have rarely found such an active group of helpful people. And to all the other lurkers like me that are deciding whether to pony up and give it a shot, do it! I haven't gotten a sip of my home brew yet but can tell you this is FUN! And if it doesn't come out fantastic, I like IPAs more that nut brown ales and those ingredients are waiting patiently in the wine cellar for an empty carboy!
