Mr. Beer: The introduction

My trend of Friday posts... they usually include drinking. 

Why break the trend, right?

This weekend our little Edgewater apartment will be transformed into a microbrewery.  Awhile back (at a garage sale) I bought a brand new-in box- never used- Mr. Beer kit..  No garage sale?  No worries, you can get one here.  The site has great recipes that I cannot wait to try!  Home brew* ends up being cheaper than buying it, delicious, different, not to mention a great feeling of accomplishment. 

OOOhhh ...Hey here's a thought... your yield makes an awesome gift, think: custom brewed 6 pack with original labels made special for that particular person, in bottles like these. I would love to receive that as a gift!! 

Please check back for parts I (process) and II (bottles).  The fermentation will take 2 weeks, and then another week to sit in bottles before it can be consumed.

Ooooo... can't wait to design beer labels!  Almost as exciting as drinking the first sip.

*note: While in most states it is legal to brew beer/wine, there are some exceptions, please check your local laws... or don't,  your call really.  Either way happy brewing. 

Visit Mr. Beer to get yours!

Yes! YES! YES!!
