Beer Forum

I just listened to the latest podcast of Brew Strong about the Hop Q & A and Jamil made a such a good point about how most listeners having been brewing for years and when someone who is new to brewing asks a question that seems obvious to a veteran brewer it's...... I'm not sure where I was going with this folks. Bare with me (yes get naked with me).

I've only been brewing for a year and a half and while I sometimes might not be familiar with certain jargon and junk, that's what the google and forums like this are for, so I quickly find out.

Maybe what I was trying to say is that I appreciate that Jamil knows that not everybody is a master brewer and we all were newbs at some time, I'm a newb myself so I just wanted to say thank you to Jamil for being so super and understanding and wise

I think this should probably be posted under the "feelings calendar." Just sayin...

Rock on ScottyB!

Just ask and we'll answer. I started with a Mr. Beer kit. I don't think there exists a lower starting point than that. Now I'm on the BJCP Board. Forums like this one are how I learned, and while we kid around a lot on here, we'll always help the newbies. No question is "too stupid".

HTH-

The more I brew, the more questions I have.

Speaking of which! Today I took my Imperial Stout to a homebrew club meeting and one of the guys who's been brewing for like 20 years said he could not pick up any flaws in it! YAY!

That brings me joy

That's the best part about the BN community. I've seen too many times on other forums where people get mocked for not knowing or for not finding a previous thread where their question was answered. You never see that here.

Just don't ask whether a kolsch or a starter needs a d-rest about 359 thousand times.
Otherwise, we're a pretty laid back bunch.
