Hey Everyone,

I'm new to this forum. I am currently living in Halifax (Quinpool), and I am originally from Charlottetown, P.E.I. I've been brewing (from scratch!) for about 2 years now. There has been much trial and error, but I think that I am moving forward ;) I typically brew ciders, as beer doesn't always agree with me, but I still love it. Anyways, so far everyone here has been really helpful and welcoming! Look forward to meeting everyone.


Thanks,

Rob

Do you put a dead rat or 2 in your fermentor for soluble amino nitrogen? ( viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1719&start=10" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; )

:welcome: I just made my first cider from the seasonal tideview kit sold at NG, it turned out great so It may become a regular thing. Good to have more cider knowledge to call on.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Haha, well there is a rat somewhere in my house... I haven't caught him yet. And I used to live next to South street, down on Queen. Ugh, so expensive there :( But really nice area.
