How Old Are You? How Long Have You Been Hbing?

[Truman42]

My daughter has some school homework on data and statistics, so I told her I would help out by running a poll on the age of members on this forum and how long youve been brewing for.

So please answer how old you are and how long you've been doing HB? Who knows one day she may be your company accountant for your micro brewery.. :icon_cheers:

Im 43 in Feb but been told I look under 40. My missus is older than me but she doesn't look a day over 30 (My avatar photo was only taken last Xmas) and she gets told that quite often. Her whole family is like that her dad is 70 and hes as fit as a 50 yr old.
Ive only been doing HB around 6 months as you can probably tell by the questions..LOL

[fergi]

started my first brew in 1972 when i was doing national service, we made a brew with liquid malt,bakers yeast and i am not sure what hops we used,

made it in a large plastic garbage bin ,didnt even sterilize the garbage bin, it was drinkable but only just.
my age, 63, but i think i act a lot younger with a young outlook on life.

4 years brewing, 37 long years not brewing,

you want stats Truman, try your 548 posts in 6 months, now thats impressive

 

[dkaos]

24, been brewing since March 2010.

Went all grain shortly after doing extract brews. Love the cost factor, but the taste is the real winner.

 

[Shifter]

Started when Noha was a boy and now older than God's dog.

 

[Spork]

Did my first brews about 25 years ago.
I voted "less than a year" as I only did 2-3 back then, and had a lengthy hiatus before starting again this year.
