Hey guys, how's it going today?
So I am a newbie here and in the world of home brew beer. To be honest I am very picky about the beer I drink and there are very few brands I actually "enjoy".
A friend of mine picked up a Mr. Beer home brewing kit 6 months ago and wants to sell it to me, he said he "just lost interest". $25.00 for a delux kit with most of the stuff unopened seemed like a good deal to me so I said, "sure, why not?"
I don't have the kit yet, but I figured I'd stop by here and take a look and ask some questions. I'll be blunt, a lot of times, most beers taste like fizzy piss water to me and I have a tendency to stick to sweeter, flavored beers and ales.
So I am looking for some advice on brewing beer. I am not sure if any flavors like this would work, but me and a friend of mine were discussing stuff like Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper or even something weirder like Maple Syrup or Honey Beer.
To be honest I've seen what the Mr. Beer kit looks like and it looks kind of cheap, but I am hoping I can make some use out of it. Kind of going through the forums here, it looks like people are saying you can brew more then beer in these, like liquor? Is that accurate?
Anyways, thanks for any advice or tips.
