because of volunteers taking the time to give me feedback, to nurture me, and
every other brewer - to help us all learn to become a better brewers and want
to continue homebrewing. </strong>It is that excitement each and every year at the Dixie
Cup that keeps that homebrew torch lit.</font></font></font></p><font color="#000000" size="3" face="Times New Roman">
