Hello to all!
I am a new brewer and am happy to be here. Since I am new to this wonderful beer-world, a lot of the topics can seem complicated for me here on the borg forum.
As a good newbie I am taking one step at a time. However, despite my newbie-ness I was able to look at (and understand) some of the topics and discussions and I have realized 2 things:
1. The wealth of information here is vast thanks to brewers of varying degrees of experience using different methods of brewing.
2. The culture on this forum is attentive, well-intentioned and of good spirit (the spirit of beer you might say).
Usually on forums of many kinds out there in the internet world you see comments by people that can be mean spirited and unkind to the average newbie, remarking on his lack of knowledge and bashing newbie-dom with a fierce iron fist. Glancing through this forum I see only help and good intentions from the more veteran and skilled which leads me to believe the only thing everyone really cares about is, well...brewing. No bragging, no snarky comments, no intentions of making someone else mess up their entire batch and have to start over with advice from the next potential newbie-terminator. It's all love for producing the perfect brew with the means available...even if it's not your own brew!
So to all, thanks for this mountain of information and experience on so many topics related to beer. And extra thanks for not bragging about the knowledge. You all have a great forum here and I am humbled just to write this first post.
I just bottled my first batch of Brewdemon Twisted Monk Witbier and got a taste of it before bottling it (so the beer is not carbonated yet). I can't believe how easy it was (except for waiting), and I never thought that I would ever want to drink flat beer before but the taste was delicious. Now the hard part again...waiting more.
Cheers!
