Mini Interview |
|
| My first homebrew... | A generic brown from a kit - nothing special, but it got me hooked. |
| Homebrewing Story... | One of my favorite brews so far was a stout called Blackout Stout that I brewed with water my paranoid roommate had stockpiled in my carboys in the basement during the blackout in the midwest/northeast a few years back. |
| 3 favorite beers | New Holland Existential Hopwine Dark Horse Crooked Tree IPA Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron For now that is, it's always changing. |
| Why I homebrew... | I love beer, and love that this hobby is a bottomless pit - no matter what stage you're at, it seems there's always something new to try, equipment to build, techniques or recipes to experiment with etc. |
| Brewing Accomplishments | Still working on it... |
