Switching Over

Post by nikro000 »

Wow, now that was a surprise!
After some years I wanted to check back what became of the Mr Beer Fans Forum - and it was gone!
But I found out that many members had switched to this site... so here I am!

I started in 2012 with a Mr. Beer kit and never stopped. I switched to all-grain in 2013 and now I am happily brewing along as much as I can.
My speciality are dark European Lagers (I am originally Austrian) and I have a Bock bubbling in my fermenter right now.

Pleased to meet everybody! And a special Hello to everybody from the old Mr.Beer Fans site!

Nick

Welcome to The Beer Borg Most everybody here came from the old MB forum and the MB Fan forum but not all and some real good new members. A bunch of friendly folks that like to make beer and share ideas.

Hi Nick, great to meet you.
I also started with MrBeer, moved to grain (BIAB) and brew near everything I drink at home. I've brewed almost exclusively ales, I'm drinking an ESB and an Irish Red now. I just kegged a Czech Pils. Looking forward to hear you brewing adventures.

I love me some bock.

Pretty much if it's beer I like it.

I do a mix of lagers and American style ales in the winter, so right now I have dopplebock in my rotation, and a maibock in the fermenter. Also have a Bohemian Pilsner conditioning.

I switch to a mix of American and British/European ales in the spring/fall, and I make pretty much exclusively Belgians/French (Saison) beers in the summer.

Welcome to our happy place.
