The thing I like best about this hobby is the pride of ownership you get when you produce a damn good beer from your own efforts. However, a close second for me is the fact that Im making my own damn good beer AND saving a boat load of money in the process.
Surprisingly though, Im reading in some posts here that some people dont experience the same cost savings when making their own beer. Where I live, 12 beers at the liquor store costs $22-25, plus bottle deposit and taxes. With my current meagre setup, I can make about 66 bottles for that price. What Im wondering is, just how cheap/expensive is beer where you live?
