I've seen the topic on here before but I can do a 5 gal batch for around 15 when I look for deals and buy in bulk.

I had an Imperial Stout run $45 for ingredients, it's over two years old now. I enjoy cracking one open every couple of months.

Around 50 I think. Maybe 60. It had a pound of hops, and about 30 lbs of grain lol, was nuts. But this is what the hobby is all about! Having fun

I just spent 45 on my Raging Bitch clone partial mash. I spent 13 bucks on 3 lbs of DME, 20 bucks on hop, and the rest on 11.5 lbs of grain. Notice how I didn't buy yeast. I reuse mine. If I hadn't I would need to fork out another 7 bucks. That is the most I've spent on a batch. Its gonna be an 8.3% beer plus I should have a pound of DME left over assuming I hit my efficiency right.
