Home Brew

Beer is an international symbol of being a Man. With that being said, I believe it is your responsibility as a man to craft your own brew. This process is simple, will save you money, a great hobby, and will put some hair on your chest.

SIMPLE

If you have the ability to follow a basic recipe, such as making a pot of soup, then you can make beer. You will need a 3-gal pot(or larger), a 6 gal(or larger) food grade bucket, air-lock, a large spoon, ingredients(your beer kit of choice), 5 gallons of water, and a kitchen. You will cook the ingredients for about 90 minutes, after bringing your pot to room temperature you will add the most important ingredient - Yeast! After sealing your bucket with an airlock you have about 4 weeks until your beer is ready.

SAVE $$

An average case of Budweiser you are looking at about $20. Most kits to make beer will produce 2 cases of beer, and cost as low as $25. Last month I made a corona knock-off, which I promise you tastes better than Corona, for $32. For an equivalent store bought(2 cases of Corona) would cost you roughly $50. If you are making 2 cases of beer per 2-months you can save yourself $108 in a year for a BETTER product.

GREAT HOBBY

Everyone loves the guy who always shows up with a six-pack. How about being the guy who shows up with a 6-pack of home brew?? Not only will you be a huge hit with your friends, but you will enjoy the process. It allows for a very basic approach as I outlined here, but also allows for an infinite amount of refining your brewing method and becoming a true 'pro'.

Start Today! Locate your local Home Brew store, and pick up your supplies. WARNING: They will try to sell you many gadgets, trinkets, and tools that you won't need to make your first beer. If you end up loving the hobby and want to invest in their advanced mechanisms that is fine, but don't do it your first time into the store. Pick up the essentials, and leave. Drink one for me.
