Toots Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I have just made my own beer from scratch. No cans of goo, just grains and hops! Its actaull quite easy but there are a couple of bits of kit i needed to make. it tastes fan... tastic. maybe a little strong in alcohol so cant drink too many in 1 go but will be great for christmas!

Lesley Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Great isn't it? - my OH makes full mash.....when he has time to make any beer at all. Do you grow your own hops? - they're very easy to grow and you could grow enough from one plant in a large pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toots Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 yeah i did a full mash. god it tastes better than a kit! I dont grow my own but there is a river walk in windsor near me that has plenty growing wild. I dont know the variety but i may use some as an experiment!
