Hello from a yorkshire las

[Brew chick]

Hi All
Thought i'd introduce me self,name of claire and been brew'in for about 14 year's now,start'd off with beer & wine kits then moved into doing wine from scratch, fav was parsnip or ginger&banana(still got the recipe if you fancy it).
Then got fed up with waiting for it all to be ready(had 18,one gallon demi jhon's on the go at any one time at one stage or another)and then after its ready it's gone in a week(not all 18 gallon).
So drop't the wine and stuck with beer about 9 years ago,i still do the odd liqueur for christmas though.
I just started all grain mashing last year and wow wot a difference!!no comparison to kit brewing,i must be do'in it right cos mine taste's better than half the rubbish i can get in my local pub's,but maybe i'm a little bias.
Best wishe's to all

Isn't there a rule about pictures in various states of disrobement being required for all new people? El Pistolero made me send him at least 10 of me before I could get my account properly activated.

Does anyone in the world, outside of England, brew parsnips?

The ginger/banana recipe might be interesting.

Does anyone in the world, outside of you and the British, even know what a parsnip is?

 

[Brew chick]

Thank's for the welcome lad's!appreciated.
Parsnip's are realy high in natural sugars(think sugar beat)so make's a realy!potent wine,only trouble is, the wine needs 12 months to mello once it's done.
cos this is my intro,hear's a bit more..
Dislike's .........IPA(too much of the old bitterness)
BUD (sorry guys but one bottle of that and iv'e got a stinking head ache within half an hour,not sure why though,its not the strength.)
Over carbonated lager eg fosters,4x ect
like's...........just about every thing else
pale ale
mild
bitter(fav ESB)
stout(sweet or dry)
porter
euro lager, mostly stela,1664,most pils type's
Sorry carn't seem to find that picture to put up, i'll keep looking eh?

With all due respect...if it's burnt, it ain't BBQ.

Right! My great-grandma was the big brewer in the family. Wish I could've learned brewing from her.
