Hi, I'm Root Skier

Post by Root Skier »

Wow, I wish I found this site two days ago.

I've just started to get into brewing. I'm another who is starting out with a Mr Beer solution. Today I brewed my 3rd MB batch.

I have MB supplies for 4 more brews, which I'm planning to do every three weeks. I'm hoping to learn some more and get better at each one.

Awesome site you've got here. I'll post some pics I took of today's brew in a new thread a bit later tonight.

welcome to the forum, Root Skier!
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Edgar Allan Poe
