So, I am a new homebrewer and am going to be going the keg route soon. When I do, I also plan on having a keg of carbed water on hand with a selection of syrups made up. I have also just started getting into ciders and through that have looked into other homemade malt beverages like hard lemonade and hard tea. That got me thinking about the malt beverage "Hard Colas" that I've seen in the stores before. Has anyone tried just making a neutrally-flavored "malt beverage base" around 5-6% ABV (water, sugar, ale yeast perhaps) and tried it with common soda syrups?
Does the idea have merit? Is it guaranteed to suck?
