I bought a Mr. Beer right before x-mass.  Did a Mr. Beer American blonde for my first batch.  A Hefeweizen for my second batch.  And now I have a red malt beer brewing.  So far they have been great.  I'm addicted to brewing now.

This is the only pic I have on my phone.  This is the american blonde.

Heard a guy tell of making homebrew today.  One thing he said he learned was not to make it in the kitchen--the house will smell like stale beer for MONTHS!

I have a beer making kit but have never found the time to try it out.  One of these days.
I do have a different recipe.  Water, yeast, ground corn, wheat bran, rye and sugar.

You don't smell beer until its fermented for awhile.  When your making wort it smells sweet.

I go here about 3 times a year to do my brew. http://www.whereubrew.com/     I have yet to try a home brew that can come close...

I've heard a lot of good about this place.  But I want to make mine at home.  That's what makes it so much fun.  It would be fun to go there once, I bet a guy could learn a lot.

Yes it is...Plus you could get alot of recipes while your there to try at home.

I might be interested in the beer kit if you are close to Oly.

Question for you guys.  I have no problem drinking PBR, coors light, Keystone (well, maybe I have a problem with Keystone) as well as nicer, micro brew beer.  I notice the difference but, sometimes I don't care.  What I care about is the price.  I buy better when I can.  How does the price of home brewing match up to say a $6.50/6pack of Coors Light?
