Despite being a devout search users apologies in advance for the dumb questions coming later.

Welcome!
I have been asking dumb questions for months, and everyone here is more than happy to oblige.
Good group of people, with lots of knowledge.

Nashville, TN is quickly becoming a city of many many micro breweries. Which means many new homebrew enthusiasts and stores to acompany. I actually found a store about 3 miles from me, which may make my wallet cry.

As for my favorites I prefer a good lager but like anything really except for the dark stouts. There is a new start up here called Hap and Harry's Lynchburg Lager that I'm loving right now. Also, the Yazoo Pale Ale and Dos Perros are in my rotation.

Thanks for making a new guy feel welcome!

Welcome!!

There is a place just north of Nashville;
http://www.rebelbrewer.com

Give them a check out. If I lived near these guys, I doubt I'd shop anywhere else. Great prices.

Welcome fellow Tennessee brewer. Live in Hendersonville and work in Nashville. I have a buddy who is selling a number of refilled. I do all-grain brewing but would be happy to help out a fellow brewer.

Small world, I also live in Hendersonville but have the commute to Brentwood every day. In fact RebelBrewer is the shop I was speaking of earlier.

Not sure if I'll ever really get into this, but always wanted to try and came across a cheap Mr. Beer. Knowing me though, I could see this becoming a huge hobby.
