Today is my AHA membership anniversary. I joined in January 2009… a million years ago, and just yesterday. That anniversary made me reflect on my time as an AHA member and what that means to me as a super-basic homebrewer who keeps committed to the hobby through all kinds of challenges and changes.

I have been meaning to say for a few weeks that the “Conquering Challenges” issue was wonderful. I have wanted to see an issue about accessibility forever. Sometimes I think about what it means that I can do so many homebrewing tasks with so little effort (even as I compensate for the minor inconveniences of being small and old). As a veteran, it was also touching to see disabled veterans given some attention. The current issue is terrific - but I’m still super thankful that the “Conquering Challenges” issue happened, and on my AHAversary I’m making amends for waiting so long to commemorate it. Long live Zymurgy and AHA!

Hi KGS,
With your permission, I’d like to print your post as a Dear Zym letter in the magazine. If you agree, please PM me your name, city, and any club affiliation so I can credit you. Thanks in advance! My dad and brother are also veterans, so this was a particularly special issue for me as well.
