    that looks interesting, I may look into that,. However you can still get cheaper beer in Aldi,. So would depend on the taste,.

    Im fairly satisfied with any pint to be honest although the idea of brewing your own does sound tempting.

    Takes over 20 days to brew so I reckon by the time the 20 pints are ready to drink you'll have to have another brew on the go...

    My da used to do it about 20 years ago and i was asking him about it recently..Said the stuff used to be the business and it would blow the head off you..He also used glass bottles as they are meant to be better..Said it would take a few weeks in a few different stages..Said the first batch would be more expensive than the rest of the batchs, because of the purchases of the equipment..

    But he said it was well worth it,and it tasted sweet as...Wouldnt mind doing it myself too..Might look into it in the summer..
