Hi everyone
I belong to a country where alcohol was first distilled and brewed thousands of years ago and have a very strong alcohol culture and social presence.
As a world's second oldest civilization brewing and distillation of alcohol was among many other things which originated from this particular region.
But few decades ago a legislation was passed to please some right wing religious people and alcohol was banned. Before that alcohol was served in restaurants, military messes and even in our national airlines .
We still have three breweries and distilleries operating here with the complete government support for providing alcohol to so called minorities here or exporting but all of their customers are that majority banned group of people.Hypocricy ??
Still you can easily get alcohol in this country but since its illegal the costs to obtain it are very high with the risk of getting caught by the police and all the bribes which follow later. Delegalizing alcohol gave birth to bootlegging mafia in this country.
So I decided to make my own beer ,wine or possibly a distilled spirit with a loud and clear message that a rebel inside me is unstoppable lol. Last year I gained some fermentation experience by just fermenting in a water plastic bottle using a bakers yeast easily available here. I managed to make some alcohol which gave me intoxication.
This year I intend to start homebrewing with proper homebrew equipment ,materials and advice from the experienced people here.
This year my whole focus will be on to learn the beer craft and next year if all goes well I will proceed to making wine.
I hope experienced folks here will support my rebellion
Cheers
