    Well me and you very well could be...depending on what side of the state you're on. I am about to bottle a new Witbier.

    While the above is (mostly) true, you will indeed have some great times as you traverse the beer universe

    Wow, Thanks for the Welcome, Everybody! Tjensen3618, I'm in Arkansas, and I'm kind of an IPA guy, followed by Porters and Stouts. It would be hard to choose a favorite, but at any given time there will be several offerings from New Belgium, Sierra Nevada, Bells, and a few others in my beer fridge. And of course, Diamond Bear, an Arkansas brewery.

    This site seems to require less info in your profile than most any other that I belong to. How do you get your location put under your name, over on the left side? Thanks again, Lightman1

    Am I on the right website?
    Is this not the site where you get dissed for drinking an IPA more than 4 hours old?
    And EVERYBODY seems to be drinking Heady?
    And if you've been a member for less than a decade, then you shouldn't even post?

    Well, my friend, shit just got real.

    And you spelled "forward" wrong in your post, not to mention other grammatical errors.

    But seriously - Welcome and Cheers!

    I've also been on here as a lurker. Reviewed some beers and would like to come out of the beer advocate closet.

    Question, is it standard to introduce yourself in forums?. I usually just walk on in like I've been around forever. I've noticed that this technique doesn't go over so well at new jobs. Just a thought. Also, Welcome to the forum new guy!

    Welcome to the new poster...I just got on board a couple of months ago and this is now one of my favorite "log onto sites" when I get online. BTW: The right side of the state (PA) is definitely Philly area for finding beers! Although as a Michigan born guy, I really wish I was there to acquire better selections...oh, well. I'll be visiting Founders when I see my family in December for sure!!

    I belong to several outdoor/shooting/hunting sites and new members usually introduce themselves. I guess thats why I did not find a thread for this, here. Well, here I am anyway!:slight_smile: And thanks for the Welcome and comments. Lightman1

    Thanks for joining and welcome to BA. Enjoy your time exploring the site and meeting the wonderful beer community here.

    We try to keep the forum discussions as "beer-focused" as possible, so "introduction" posts like yours really aren't necessary (but it's nice for you to do so) --- feel free to begin commenting in the forums and contributing to the site in other ways (beer/place reviews/ratings, etc) right away.

    Cheers,
    Brian
