Mini Interview
My first homebrew... My first brew was from a kit I received for xmass. The kit sat for 1 year fore I got around to trying it but once I did I was hooked been brewin my own since and don't even like "Bud" anymore dosen't taste good anymore when I do buy beer occasionally it has to be a good import or something like that Pilsner Uquell bein my favorite import.
Homebrewing Story... My first homebrew from a kit was a stout I didn't even have beer bottles or a capper or anything like that. SO I used canning jars. They don't work well at all can'thold the presure but I of course drank the beer anyway and it was good. kinda flat cause of the presure causing carbonation loss but it gave me a reeeal good buzzz and I was hooked. went out right away and got bottling equip and all and things started goin much better.
3 favorite beers Pilsner Urquell,
Saranac Pale Ale,
Beck's Lager
Why I homebrew... Because brewing your own is as much fun as drinking beer I brew
