Thank You, HBT!

After struggling through several mediocre batches, moving from extract to BIAB to full all-grain, tearing my hair out over a major recurring off-flavor issue, and finally upgrading to a small single-keg system, I am now drinking a draft IPA that is as good, if not BETTER than most pub-draft craft beers I could buy. It's got smooth hop bitterness, nice aroma, bright golden color and a delicious malty backbone. Mmmm...

So I just wanted to say how incredibly rewarding this is, and to offer a huge THANK YOU to folks like Yooper, Martin B., Revvy and others who put so much time and effort into making so much useful information available.

That looks great! I'm so glad that you're happy with the beer you're brewing- that's an awesome feeling and an accomplishment to be proud of.

Congrats on the good beer. It looks great.

And yes HBT is a great place to learn.....

Thanks, Yooper. I basically started taking every piece of advice I saw you offering, right down to IPA grain bills and yeast selection. You should start charging for this.

Ok. You owe me $2 and a beer. I'll take that if you're ever in the UP, ok?

It always feels good when ya brew a great beer better than a commercial offering. Doubly so when you conquer a brewing fubar!

A good way to say thank you for everything HBT and it's members helped you with is to become a supporting member. Help keep HBT running and pay it forward. Sounds like you got way more than a membership's worth of benefit.

And congratulations on your progress, and overcoming your challenges.
