Default Any homebrewers?

Maybe this isn't the right subforum but seems to be the closest. Anyone homebrew out there? I have been all grain brewing for about 8 years or so and am enjoying one of my IPAs as I type. All Galaxy hops and quite delicious!

Enjoyed my all grain bourbon barrel porter. Only my 3rd all grain batch so still refining my process.

Check out Northern Brewer website. Good educational info and they have been great to work with.

+1 for Northern Brewer. They have some awesome beer kits. For starters you can look into extract brewing. It's cheaper to get into and is easier for the beginner. Fewer things to plan for in the brew. If there is one in your area you could go check out a homebrew club meeting. You could probably score some deals on used equipment that way. I would buy a new fermenter at the very least though. Never know what has been brewed in a used one...

Brewed a Kolsch today as my Father's Day present to myself. A good beer for a hot Florida summer.
