Hey Dave! Good to see you’re still here! So far, 0 gallons in 2024. After some down years and some time away from this forum I hope to do more in 2024! I only brewed 15 gallons last year, so the bar is low!

Jim J was a good man. We joined about the same time and spent quite a bit of time in the early days of the taproom talking beer and brewing techniques. I just heard of his passing on Facebook. I will toast my latest home brew in his honor today. My thoughts are with the Johnson family today.
