So I haven't been around in, oh, about a year.

One of my last posts was about me headed to OC, Maryland. I was already posting less cause I was working a lot that summer and then I was working at Wegman's during my last year of school so I just had a ton of stuff going on. So I guess it seems my forum life took a seat on the back burner.

Currently, to you all up, I just graduated from Edinboro University with a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology (read jobless). I just finished up a summer co-op with AK Steel, my second year there. I'm currently having my background check run to work for United States Investigative Services. Its a government contracted company that does background checks on pretty much everyone. I should be starting in the next month or so. My girlfriend just started her 1st day there today (yeah we will be working for the same company). Its pretty decent money. We just started renting (we finished moving in last week) a place together. I'll take some pictures when it gets nice out. Our plan is live here for a year or two, long enough to save enough money to put down on buying our first house. I wanna rent as short a time as possible.

I still drive my Frontier but I've sold all my Maxima's (that's a whole other story). I've been home brewing beer for the past 6 months now and I f*** love it. Its my new obsession. Its the best thing I've ever done. Umm...idk what else. More things will come to me I guess. So yeah, I'm back. I missed you guy's tons. :laugh:

TL;DR: Been gone, now back, missed you.

Thanks guys!!

Umm...so far I've made a German styled Kolsch, a Bavarian Hefeweizen and this weekend I'm gonna start my Dry Hopped IPA. I've only been brewing for about 3 months or so. The Kolsch turned out amazing, while the Hefe was less than average due to an error on my part.

I'm gonna start after this IPA to do the BIAB (Brew in a Bag) method. My other ones have all been mainly extract brewing, all using kits. After this IPA I'm gonna go with one of a couple recipes I found plus I'm gonna do a second batch of my own recipe so if it doesn't work I still have one good beer.

If the recipe works I'll get it to ya for sure.
