I will definitely have to join the ranks. I haven't made a lot of batches recently, but I do enjoy brewing my own beer. Mostly wheat ales and brown ales. Easy stuff, really. Tried using fruit extracts, as well. Didn't turn out quite how I wanted it, but it was worth a shot. Next batch is probably going to be a porter. Always wanted to try some darker stuff.

Anybody here catch the Alton Brown "Good Eats" episode on brewing beer? One of my fav's and extremely informative to the newbie brewer.

Once I get over my illness, I'll have to brew up another batch of some Brown ale. MMMmmmmm...
