I thought it would help me understand the process more and develop the confidence to brew from scratch in the future.
So having identified the hop that I like the most (cascade) and then finding a kit that was easy enough to drink and which contained cascade - I found 'Golden Stag'.
Fingers crossed it works!
The alcohol content is lower than it is supposed to be (3.94% over the supposed 4.5%), but it is a learning curve.
I was warned that brewing can become addictive.
It has!
If you havent given it a go, I would give it a try.
I'd thought about doing cider once, but as I don't have a garage, it'd be a bit difficult I reckon. I'll have to buy a brewing shed or something!
You'll have a Fencehouses Micro Brewery in no time
