About: I recall my first sip of beer very fondly. At a very early age I was watching a baseball game with my father, and he noticed I was curious as to the colorful red and white canned beverage in his hand and finally offered me a sip. At that point I felt like I was a part of something special. As I was never able to touch those elusive drinks prior to that moment, I felt like a grown man, sipping the sudsy elixir with my dad watching sports on the tv screen.
That was a one time event though, and it wasnt until my teen years when I realized the magical effects beer can have at social functions. I became enamored immediately with the level of fun that can be had while drinking what I also had confessed was the most refreshing drink in existence.
After years of experimenting with every drink available to me, I have found my tastes and preferences have matured. Still, more so than ever I am driven by the quest to find the ultimate beverage. Though I know there is no such thing I am always trying something new to find my favorites. I enjoy variety, and also believe the only way to discover truly what you enjoy the most is by trying everything you can. Not only do you learn about the various styles and flavors associated with the many kinds of beer, but you also learn what you like as well as what perhaps you are not particularly fond of. There is a time and a mood for just about any style of beer crafted today, and the more you experience the better you are prepared to suit your own tastes.
I love beer, pure and simple.See Authors Posts (52) | Filed under: Homebrew

Real men use glass carboys =D. Good luck and brew strong!

Glass carboys are deadly if they slip out of your slippery hands!

That sparkling new keg is awesome!

A car is deadly if you drive it into a brick wall. A kitchen knife is deadly if you trip and stab it into your chest.
Just because something is dangerous if handled improperly is not, in my opinion, a valid argument against using it.

I have plenty of glass carboys and better bottles. I guess the fact that I brew in my garage and then ferment in my basement makes those 22 steps down the basement with a slippery glass carboy a scary situation for me. Just like driving a car down an icy cliff or using a kitchen knife with greasy buttered hands. Some things are just made more deadly by their environment.
