Default so tired of the yellow fiz

I know this is crazy but im to broke to go buy a 10 six pack of Guinness every outer night. I usually get a sixer of bush.Today I just got the crazy idea to flavor it up a bit so I took a spoonful of Instant Coffee and a small cap full of vanilla added a small amount of water all in a shot glass and nuked it for 10 sec thin threw it in a glass of bush surprisingly it gives a background flavor that adds depth and the color isn't that bad either compared to the original product

I so cant wait for my first brew im collecting my equipment and im thinking im gona brew a stout!

I know im nuts lol

Wow.

If I had ANY in bottles, I would ship it to you.

maybe search the apfelwine thread... just read the first post and follow the instructions.

wow.

Hopefully you'll wait for your first beer to finish fermenting before you start drinking it...

My annual ciders usually take several months in the bottle to come into their own, tried back sweetening a bit this year with some lactose... maybe ready earlier but hoping for early spring.

A quick low ABV low hop brown ale can be ready in 30 days... and very satisfying.


Shiner should be cheap in Texas! Their black lager was pretty good, for the price!

Funny I've been sort of missing the yellow fizz, thinking of making up like a Busch Light clone, but just can't bring myself to do it.

I thinl we're missing the greater point here of Texas' ingenuity. I don't know if i would drink it, but if you enjoyed it, good for you!
