So I was reading another forum about hipsters and I searched for the term on wikipedia:

There was one section that I found interesting:
I was a bit confused by this because everyone I've approached have equated homebrewing to a sort of redneck activity. So would you consider homebrewing to be a "hipster" activity?

There was one section that I found interesting:
In the late 1990s, the term began to be used in new, sometimes mutually exclusive ways. In some circles it became a blanket description for middle class and upper class young people associated with alternative culture, particularly alternative music, independent rock, alternative hip-hop, independent film and a lifestyle revolving around thrift store shopping, eating organic, locally grown, vegetarian, and/or vegan food, drinking local beer (or even brewing their own), listening to public radio, and riding fixed-gear bicycles
