New Brewer from Wisconsin

I know what your are thinking. They teach beer brewing in 7th grade home ec. in Wisconsin. Really though, I just brewed my first batch which is fermenting as we speak. It was from an extract kit, a Petite Saison. I want to work my way up to some really big beers quickly. I love Triples, Quads, Scotch Ales, and most any beer with a high alcohol content as well as many German beers. Look forward to learning a lot here. :)

Welcome! I'm with you on the big beers, but I think I have to start bottling anything over 7%. When I put it in a keg it is way too accessible and I have had too many nights where I don't remember going to bed. :aaron

I chuckle to myself when some people talk about drinking a six or 12 pack, and think, wow if I did that with a Belgian Quad, I would end up sleeping in my bathtub. :drink

Welcome to the insanity! Careful, brewing starts as a hobby and quickly turns into an obsession!
