Definite sign of improving skill

[Fizzycist]

Or it might just be the recipe. Brewed up Yooper's Dead Guy Clone two weeks ago and just pulled a sample. It's not done fermenting judging by the gravity reading, but this is actually the first hydrometer sample I actually wanted to finish the whole thing. So freakin' delicious! Usually I just take a sip and say yep, it's gonna be beer. But this is awesome.

What are some signs you guys have had that your brewing skill is improving?

My dad saying "hey this one is Good"

And then catching him steal bottles from the basement

I just had this exact thing happen to me! I was taking a reading of my hanks hefe and I let my roommate and girlfriend try it... both were like... "damn that is good!!"

I always love when fellow homebrewers ask for my recipes.

When I finally had patience in my brewing.

For me it was about nailing my process: The combo of not having a list of things to fix that I screwed up on the last batch and having a smooth brew day.

When you realize that you went through fifty bottles in a very, very short period of time.
