The unofficial Geekhack home-brew topic
« on: Tue, 06 September 2016, 01:11:08 »
Hello fellow GeekHackers,

Does anyone else on this forum do home-brew (beer, wine, mead, Ginger beer etc..)?

Was expecting to see home-brewed video games :p

I've made beer back in highschool, no idea what it was.
Distilled vodka a few years ago, it was terrible but was very cheap haha.

Would love to properly brew beer and experiment. Science and booze, my favorite

I brewed a couple batches with a coworker once, one was some sort of pumpkin beer, the other was a brown ale. The brown was the best, wasn't a huge fan of the pumpkin.

I've never tried a pumpkin beer. I've been thinking about trying one. How did yours turn out? Any off flavours or anything?

Just a heads up guys, please stay within the bounds of the law, at least on what you post, there are minors here.  Distilling any spirits in the USA is illegal in all 50 states with zero exemptions for volume.  Fermentation is ok, distillation is not.
