Mini Interview
My first homebrew... I'd gone to the LHBS to get some wine yeast for a strawberry wine. I asked they "so, what's different for beer". He says, "you've got everything you need except the ingredients - what style beer do you like". I took home everything and did what he said.. Only problem - he didn't give me any advice on hops and how they work... So, I threw in a whole ounce for the one gallon batch I brewed... It was 10 bottles of good, but very bitter, beer.
Homebrewing Story... I really don't even like beer - and have never really drank it regularly - until I started making it. I'm a rum and wine guy. I think my wife hopes this is a phase.

Why I homebrew... I love to create in the kitchen. I cook sourdough bread and pizza from scratch. I make wine. It seemed like a fun challenge.
Brewing Accomplishments My wife actually liked my first beer.
