I had to sign up since I listened to my first BN podcast yesterday and JP talked about how he had asshole face.
I started brewing last month in May and this new hobby has now consumed me (along with my bank account). Got started when a cycling teammate of mine mentioned he used to brew his own beer. I thought it be cool to have a craft IPA to drink once I reach the finish line of my first century ride. Since then I have brewed almost every weekend. Im doing all extract brewing right now and looking to move to a all grain set-up my the end of the year.
As for the handle, a buddy of came over after three weekends in a row of brewing and said to me "dude, you be hella brewing!"
Oh yeah for you non-NorCal folks "hella" is a multi purpose word derived from "hell of a lot" is my guess. Funny thing is I never knew this was unique to NorCal till about 3 years ago till my bro-inlaw from LA pointed it out. Once I noticed I was irritating him with the word I made it a point start all of our conversations with "dude Dodgers hella suck".
Enough about my weird vernacular. Here is what's going on in my garage:
Bottled: Century IPA (Mostly Columbus hops, Citra mixed in late)
Primary: American Wheat
Secondary: Red Chair NWPA Clone
On the Deck: Some sort of Sierra Nevada Clone. Haven't decided.
