I love the good mix of education and entertainment and have learned a lot. I'm glad Justin thought to start the BN and that it has grown (let alone survived) for so many years now!
I am considering listening live today - it would be my first live show. I feel out of the loop, but hey, at the rate I'm going, I still have another 21 months of archive listening before I'm caught up.
Later today, I'll be brewing my tenth batch since my first brew around the third week of January - an IPA (which was also the second beer I brewed). Two weeks ago I stepped up to being able to do a full-volume boil - and protect the kitchen range from further abuse.
Anyway, I am glad to be here and to have finally joined the community. I look forward to meeting all of you!
Fermentably yours,
'bbbb' Jon
