So far, we’ve uncovered some interesting facts about Homebrew. You may decide that the following information is even more interesting. Homebrew Beer Making is something I first got into while I was still at school. Homebrew beer was all the rage at the time with dozens of different homemade beer kits available in most of the supermarkets and chemist shops
Myself and 2 or 3 friends would get together and go and buy 1 or sometimes several Homebrew Beer Making kits, usually a few weeks before the start of the school holidays so it would be ready for the start of the summer holidays, when we would camp in our gardens and quench our summer thirst with a refreshing bottle of homebrew beer.
So why did we get into beer making?
Well a variety of reasons.
First there was our age; we were under the legal beer drinking age but we were A bit of a wild bunch and liked to get drunk so home beer brewing was an easy way for us to have almost unlimited access to highly potent homemade beer.
Secondly there was the cost; even though ordinary, regular beer from the off license was cheap, it was still too expensive for us school-kids to be able to buy enough for a few of us to be able to go out and buy enough for a party.
Thirdly it became a fun (and profitable) hobby.
To begin with our beer making efforts resulted in some pretty horrible brews, foul tasting, cloudy (like a dirty river in full flood), full of sediment and almost guaranteed to make even the most steel stomached of us sick after a few bottles.
Gradually though, after trying out pretty much every home beer brewing kit on the market and experimenting with different brewing techniques we began to learn that home beer making could actually produce better beer than that available commercially. Of course anything that we can do well will often becomes something that we enjoy and as I have become a good beer drinker these two hobbies (brewing and drinking) compliment each other perfectly. It’s just a shame it took me so long to get to the stage my beer was at least as good as the mass produced beer.
Thankfully beer aficionados now don’t need such a long and stomach churning learning curve before they can become an expert in home beer brewing as there are plenty of very good and informative websites dedicated to home beer making.
