About

Blogging has been something I have been putting off for years.  Finally, it just made too much sense to put my head down and do it.  I expect the majority of my posts in the near future will be about brewing beer.  The end goal is to have crafted a number of recipes that have been inspired by geek culture.  Starting a blog just seemed like a good way to build up that archive, while immediately and continually contributing to the communities I belong to.
