Mini Interview
My first homebrew... First homebrew was a pseudo-pilsner, a mix of extracts and steeped grains with an ale yeast.
Homebrewing Story... I was brewing an alt and had just mashed in when I realized I was out of propane. I went to get more gas and when I got home there was wort all over the floor. My mash tun had sprung a leak, I hooked up the gas, heated more water, and added the water to the mash tun. I then went to the LHBS and bought some LME to replace the missing sugars. The brew turned out decent but I won't be repeating that one.

Why I homebrew... Homebrewing provides me with cheaper, tastier, and more varied beers.
