    Congrats! I have been a member for 8+ years but was only a visitor until about 2 years ago when I finally started recording my reviews. I wish I had kept records of all of the beers I had tried for decades before that (If so, I would be at 1000+ in beers I have recorded instead of 350). My tastes have evolved over the years and my attitude softened from beer snob/elitist to anti-beer snob/elitist.

    Beer is easily my beverage of choice. Never developed a taste for wine, other than a glass of Champagne on special occasions. As for hard liquor, I average the equivalent of maybe 2 shots a year.

    Really appreciate BA, both for an online location to record my reviews, but also for the opportunity to scan the forums and learn more about one of my favorite hobbies.

    Best wishes for 2016 to everyone!

    And we love having you here.
    PS. I still have my bottle opener. Looks as beat up as yours. I too, love that old logo.

    Congrats man!

    I'm hoping that I can match my pace from the first 5 years in my second 5 years. It's got to be tough as OP has already noted.
