Hullo... I use to do a lot of chatting and advice giving years ago with my other favorite hobby - old Mopars (that's Dodge and Plymouth for the uninitiated).

About 6 years in to brewing now. Bought a kit for a buddy and it sat there. So I did a brew and loved it so much I have been at it since.

Mother's Day of this year my wife insisted I brew her a batch.... I told her she had to help, now she too is hooked.
We do mostly ales. IPAs more specifically. My wife loves Moylans Kilt Lifter and is still trying to get her version to come out right. But she is starting to become a hop head so I wrote a recipe I call Hop Scotch. If she likes it I will post it.

We use a 15 gal pot for HLT and Boil and a 10 gal Rubbermaid cooler for mashing.

We brew about every 2 weeks (5 gal batches)

We live less than 2 miles from MoreBeer's Concord showroom http://morebeer.com/ and I think I get frequent flyer miles...
