Afternoon everyone,
I'm located in lovely Sleepy town of Cleveleys, just down the road from Blackpool.
Basically, over the past 6 months or so I have been broadening my alcoholic tastes. As drinking lager (with the odd cider at summer bbq's) throughout my teens and early 20's, I have come to the conclusion that I don't actually like what I'm drinking.
(Mainly general pub lager slosh, there are some awesome world lagers that I do enjoy)
I have been really enjoying wheat beers over last summer and have just started out in the world of real ales. Pretty much trying anything and everything as to start to understand what I like. Really been enjoying the likes of Hobgoblin over the past couple of months.
With a wetherspoons around the corner and quite a few real ales to have a go at its been fun to say the least.
I think the real Ale festival will be starting soon, around the end of the month which should be great :drink: :whistle:
Anyway, onto why I joined....
I was debating a wine starter kit sometime last year but put it on the backburner due to a house move etc, but I am now seriously looking into starting out with a few homebrew kits. So have decided I will be purchasing the Woodfordes Nog Microbrewery to get me started and probably a decent wheat beer to get going once the nogs kegged up. (If anyone has a good example, that would be most welcome
)
This is really an amazing place you all have here, been reading around here for months now, so that has definitely boosted my confidence for my first brew attempt. If all goes to plan, I can easily see getting bit by the brew bug and going nuts on some more kit, ha!
Well thanks for reading a partially random rant :whistle:
Looking forward to getting started on my kit once ordered, and get to know you all. Also be good to get to know some fellow fylde coasters in the process as well :
Cheers
