“One of the marks of a certain type of bad man is that he cannot give up a thing himself without wanting every one else to give it up. That is not the Christian way. An individual Christian may see fit to give up all sorts of things for special reasons--marriage, or meat, or beer, or the cinema; but the moment he starts saying the things are bad in themselves, or looking down his nose at other people who do use them, he has taken the wrong turning.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere ChristianityI am not so sure starting my online voice documenting my travels through brewing my first batch of homebrew beer is the best step, nevertheless, here it is. My mother has blessed me with a Brewer's Best (http://www.brewersbestkits.com/) beer kit for my birthday / Christmas gift this year.
The kit has everything you need (for the most part) to brew your own homebrew. The second part of the gift is the actual ingredients and directions to make a specific batch. This was a Vienna Lager.
Vienna Lager (L)
Munich, Vienna and caramel malts combine to provide a rich malt aroma. When lagered this beer will finish clean and dry with no fruity esters. Vienna Lager is moderately hopped. This kit includes a lager yeast that will also perform well if fermented at ale temperatures.
I started the brew Friday January 10th, 2014 at about 5pm.
