    Bourbon

    I've recently started drinking the Jim Beam Red Stag. It doesn't take me too long to go through a bottle of that-it's good stuff.

    I've been homebrewing for about 9-10 years. I've been brewing extract with grains for most of that time. Got a Munich Helles that I need to bottle later today.

    best beer for BBQ

    a home made brew always goes good with bbq. if i don't have any homebrew on hand, i usually go for a red ale or a bock to go with my bbq.

    Drink of choice?

    a good homebrew for me (or any good beer if i'm out of homebrew)! when it's cold outside, i'll sometimes go for a southern comfort and pepsi in place of the beer.
