Beer Brewing

[RadioHead84]

I just recently turned 21 and am getting a appartment off campus. I love beer...tis a great thing and now i want to start making it at home. I heard its a great hobby and can save you money while actually making some pretty good damn beer.

Anyone recommend some good starting kits or a good type of beer to start on?

Where you going to brew it in your bathtub?

Skip the beer and go right into distilling grain alcohol.

Not in the U.S.

You can brew for a fairly cheap amount I think, but like many hobbies you might be compelled to spend much much more than that.

Find a brewshop and ask a lot of questions. They will have what you need to get set up. My brewshop has a good filebox full of recipes, I chat with the owner and have him recommend something.

Mmmm, beer...I need to get a new batch started.
