When your wife has to explain to your kid's preschool teacher why she painted a picture of a beer bottle with "DAD" across the top... (also, you hang picture on kegerator)

My 2 year old told her teacher that her favorite color is beer.

Everything is bottled, nothing is fermenting and it's starting to give you a nervous rash.

When you try to pick out wild hops looking at ditches when driving.

When your boss tells you to cascade some information to your team and you start thinking of a new Pale Ale recipe.

Double decoction coffee brewing is a sure sign.

When you seriously attempt to convince your wife to name your newborn son "Porter" because it's one of your favorite styles.

...or naming your future daughter Amber or Abbey....

 

[milldoggy]

Better than naming her Lambic or Wit

I think that Helles or Vienna would make some good girls' names

 

[jonmohno]

Probably better pet names?TWITA-thats what im talking about.(did i just make that up?)

 

[milldoggy]

You think IPA for a boy and BPA for a girl would be good?

 

[AdamWiz]

I just got the best idea for anyone whose last name starts with "A" - make your kids initials "I.P." and "B.P." - then you have IPA and BPA. I think we might be straying off topic a bit with all the name stuff, but if you're thinking of beer related names, I guess that is a sign.........

When you totally lose the ability to make a proper conjugation. You're = you are. They're = they are. When you post pictures of you are full carboys on facebook like they are you are children. For the record, the apostrophe shows possession. Example: Bob's beer = possessive tense.

 

[stamandster]

When you fantasize about large ... copper pots to boil your wort in

 

[JSomps6]

You continuously have this spreadsheet opened:

Your brewing schedule is impressive... every 5 days??!??!

 

[Heavenlybrew]

When ur sad after going to the aquarium with swmbo and child because u have no money left to buy ingredients

 

[Golddiggie]

When you get a glint in your eye when you spy a keg... Even though you have no use for it (13.3 gallon) you buy it anyway. Because "eventually" you'll be able to use it...

When at work, home, family members place, etc. you talk about brewing, what you've got in the works, or what's on deck, pretty much all the time.

When asked what you want for holdiay/b-day/etc, it's all brew related, or a gift CC so that you can get brewing supplies.

When you see "mash" on a menu and automatically think of a recipe you'll be brewing, or just made.

There's more... It's only an issue if YOU think it's one. :rockin:

Brew on...

 

[Heavenlybrew]

To be honest I started to home brew to hide my alcohol addiction. So far so good.

When your coworker says, "you have a problem" because every time he walks by you're on this site researching stuff.

When you gladly buy the wife her dream fridge, because your fermentation fridge crapped out. (One big enough that you also get the old chest freezer and she buys you everything to convert it to a Keezer )
