I've been home brewing beer for about 8 years now.  It is something I really enjoy.  I started with a basic brewing kit a long time ago.  A pale ale was my first attempt.  Although, it wasn't the best tasting beer in the world, it somehow tasted a little better because I had made it by myself.  After that, I was hooked.  I have greatly expanded my beginning home brewing beer kit.  I usually have at least one batch waiting to be bottled at all times.  Beer brewing has become a real passion of mine.

My favorite beers to brew are stouts and pale ales.  I'm always looking for new recipes to try.
