I have been brewing for years, Good home brew is what real beer is ment to taste like, unlike most of the mass production crap avaliable. With home brew, you can taste a lot of the different flavours like hops, wheat, barly ect.

I brew 40L at a time, and use kegs not bottles. The fermenting takes about 7 to 10 days and gassing takes 2. Beer can be drunk straight away, but i prefer to let it settle for a week or two.

And its CHEAP

$40 for 40L.
OR
4.4 cartons for $40
OR
$9 per carton
OR
38c a stubby
