Sir Humpsalot said:Don't listen to them. Hops and malt are old skool. All you really need to make beer is sugar, water, and yeast. Anybody who tells you otherwise is being an EAC!!! For more beer flavor though, you can add a can of Miller High Life. That's basically like beer flavoring.

As others have said, you can add more fermentables to give the yeast more to chew on (or, for that matter, pour a couple of bottles of Everclear in the finished product) but -- while I've never tried it -- I expect it would be tough in either case to come out with a decent tasting beer.trying 2 get it up abd around 8%
sirsloop said:Why? Because someone mentioned raising the alcohol content? Some styles REQUIRE higher malt (and alcohol) contents in order to be balanced... like the IIPA and trois pistoles I just made. How about banning everyone and closing all of the threads regarding eds apfelwein... on no we put in 2# of dextrose to bump the alcohol content up past 7%. We instantly have become immature college students again. In fact, I don't have anything in primary now thats under 7.2%... and that Trois Pistoles is going to be 10.5%!!!! Man.. I must really want to get banned or something???

You'll have to excuse me I didn't look at where he was from only that he is only 20sirsloop said:true... the pistoles is pretty much a belgian barleywine
Lol... I just realized the thread subject had BAC%! AHAHAHAH!!! You don't add more sugar to get a higher blood alcohol content... you just drink more.
Give us some recipe details, and we'll help you make a better/stronger beer.mrobo56 said:ok ive been playing dextros and stuff trying to make a strong beer (larger) trying 2 get it up abd around 8% does any1 have any tips, methods, or how much dextros i should add? all help would be greatly aprechaited. thx in advanced
