Did you know that there are literally hundreds and thousands of people around the world who make their own beer on a daily basis? How you may ask? By using beer making kits or home brew recipes.
You next question would be why? Beer is very easily available at the store and there are hundreds of different varieties, so whats the point of making it yourself.
There are a few answers to this, such as;
- Cost - its often much cheaper to make your own beer, than it is to buy it
- Hobby - It's pretty fun making your own beer, lots of people learn how to brew beer as a hobby and see how good a beer they can brew
- Variety - making your own beer means you control what goes in it, you choose the flavor and the amounts, which means you can come up with your own recipe that no one has ever tasted before, and no store will sell!
You can start off with a beer making kits, this will include all the hardware and beer making supplies you will need, and of course will include the basic beer making ingredients; which I might add have hardly changed over the past 5000 years!
These ingredients include;
- water
- malt
- yeast
- hops
These ingredients together create a beer in its purest form, so there are no preservetives or additves when you make your own at home, and they often say that additives are the cause of hang overs, so there is another bonus to making your own beer.. no hang over! ** of course that depends on how much you drink!
So why not learn how to brew beer for yourself? Go down to any major store and get yourself a beer making kit and get started, you will never look back!
