Title: New Freddy Brewer
Post by: AtlanticRebel on May 08, 2017, 08:37:49 AM

Good day everyone,

I'm new to the world of home brewing, went out Saturday to get my starter kit and a brew to start out with.  I picked up the gear from Noble Grape here in Fredericton, and will be brewing a Northern Lights kit to start.  Once I get a few good brews under my belt, I want to start customizing it a bit and eventually would love to move up to all grain one day.  Hope to learn lots from this community here.

Cheers,
 - Marc

Welcome! Just added you to our private forums. We meet every other Saturday afternoon at 2pm so hope to meet you if you're able...

As an FYI we are having our annual (semi-annual) MashOccur event this Saturday, here's a link to the thread:

Should be a great day looks like we'll have a great turnout...

Good luck with the kit from Noble Grape - they are a great way to get started, hope it turns out well for you...

Thanks guys, I may try to drag the wife out to the MO.  Wouldn't be brewing as today is actually brew day(oh the joys of working from a home office, any day can be brew day).  I know we're helping out with the marathon the weekend, not 100% sure of what/when, we live right by the start/finish line on Aberdeen right across from Queen Square Park.  I'll talk to her when she's home from work, and add to the post.
