Welcome to Our Wort
Posted by Aaron Murray on January 23rd, 2008Let me be the first (or second, depending on how quickly John is writing his welcome post) to welcome you to our little brewing blog. I hope you’ll enjoy your time here as much as we enjoy crafting and drinking beer.
I got started down the homebrewer’s path in a manner similar to many, I suspect: my girlfriend bought me a brewing kit for Christmas. I had been tossing around the idea of starting up a homebrewing hobby for a while, with my interest finally peaking when I found the homebrewers mailing list at my place of work. The kit went unpurchased for quite a while, as I can be rather lazy, even about things I truly enjoy.
So, Christmas rolls around and my surprise gift is a very nice starter kit from Northern Brewer. On new year’s day I began the process of brewing my first beer, which I am currently in the process of slowly (and sometimes not-so-slowly) enjoying. I dubbed it Murray’s Irish New Year, and it is a quality brew if I do say so myself (and I, of course, do).
So, hopefully, this site will become an entertaining and informative look into the process of brewing carried out by two noobs living in cramped quarters in the Bay Area. Enjoy, and have a homebrew!

I’ve only got one batch under my belt so far. Perhaps the cleaning will become tiresome. Also, I haven’t had anything explode like JR did. My girlfriend might become tired of the whole thing were that to ever happen. :)
