Not sure if we're allowed to post external links, but this is a good one my fiance sent me the other day. It's eerily accurate too, even if I haven't made it to the last phase yet

Hehe, that's pretty good! :lol:
I missed a couple of steps along the way, but I am currently hovering somewhere around phase 8.

the ones about collecting and cellaring special beers really got me.

We still have some that were bought 2+ years ago and I can't help but buy a 22oz of something new whenever i go to a beer store. But hey, that 120 Minute IPA or World Wide Stout only get better with age, right?

That's what I keep hearing, but I am really bad about cellaring beers.
Give me a whiskey or brandy and it can stay on the shelf for ages, but a beer.... *glug*, gone within a couple months. :mrgreen:

Yeah, step 14 is a good place to start!

I range from about 8 to about 11, depending on audience and availability of travel funds....
