I've thought about home brewing for years, and am tempted to try it. I have a few reservations, though. Some people like all kinds of beers, such as ales, stouts, Belgian whites, etc and love tasting all kinds of varieties. I'm what you would call a "super taster" and don't really like bitterness. I've tried all kinds of beers, but wasn't much of a fan of them. I cannot stand watered down American beers, like Budweiser or Coors. It simply has no flavor at all. I can tolerate Miller.
I do tend to like lighter beers. Michelob seems to be a higher quality American beer, and it's not too bad. So far my favorite beers have been the "Mexican lagers" like Corona and Dos Equis Lager. Dos Equis Lager is by far my favorite beer. Fosters isn't too bad, and I can tolerate Heineken, although it's definitely on the bitter side. I don't like it enough to drink an entire batch of it.
So, is it possible to easily make a beer somewhat like a Dos Equis Lager? The fact that it's a "lager" kind of scares me, as I doubt I will have the capability any time soon to make a lager. Would home brewing be a waste of time for me?
