It has now been a few weeks since I took up brewing my own beer as a hobby, and I've learned a whole lot from it. The verdict? 10/10, I'm going to keep this up

Store bought beer is just like fast food. You aren't just paying for the drinks, you're also paying for consistency and ease.
Homebrewed beer is like cooking your own food at home. More effort, equipment and patience are required, but it's rewarding how you can experiment and make sure your own product is worth drinking.

It also saves a whole lot of money. I can make 10 gallons of ale for about $75. That's a very, very, very large discount.

And no, you don't have to wait forever or spend tons of money to get started - IF you're willing to learn some old recipes and modify them. Here's what I did for my first brew, which was a total success:

Like modern day "Lutheranism," the world doesn't want you doing things like this. The world wants you buying everything instead of putting in a bit of elbow grease. They want you eating fast food, buying your beer from the store, anything but individual action. They want your money, not personal growth or personal benefit for you.

Yes, modern Lutheran ministers and theologians want you in a spiritual coma. Their feeding tube Lutheranism ensures that you stay asleep, never being sanctified, while they extract money from you and give it to foreign missions.
