I headed back to the States for a conference in June (yes, I realize it is now August).  One of the key things I looked forward to was trying a bunch of beers that I heard about on the beer radio I use to learn homebrewing tips.  Suffice it to say, I tried a lot of beers on my trip.  The other beautiful thing about coming to the states is that hops are much cheaper.  So, I grabbed a suitcase full of hops to bring back to Australia.  It always makes customs more adventurous.  The other wonderful thing about going to the States is seeing my wonderful family.. which really is the highlight of every trip :)
