I migrated over here from the homebrew digest and at first was pretty grumpy about it, but as I learned the names and the people I became very comfortable here. I am not familiar with any other forums, beer or otherwise.
I miss Amanda, Tom Schmidlin, Carl (punatic), even though he needed to tell us about his perfect life in Hawaii, and that guy who taught us all about shaken not stirred starters.
I'm happy to have made some friends here in real life as well - Denny, Keith, Jeff R., Mike. Nice people.
I am brewing less lately and not sharing as much with other non-brewing folks. I say, let them make their own beer.
I am enjoying learning about the staling effects of oxidation lately. I must admit that when I first became a judge in the mid 90's I knew German Lagers as stage B oxidized products and did not judge well the ones that were bright and hoppy. It took a while to relearn that.
