I certainly don't asked to be called anything. If someone calls me anything positive, I take it as a complement and then say that I like the hobby and enjoy learning new things and trying to make good beer. Jokingly, the guys in my group call me the professor, because I dig quite a bit deeper into things than most of them do, but I don't seek a status and welcome the extract brewer making his first of a new style as much as the triple decoration all grain guy. That is what is great about this hobby/lifestyle/obsession - it's cool on all levels.
