In three decades, I've yet to turn a single New Year's resolution into a success. My problem seems to be that I choose resolutions that are no fun to stick with. This year I'm going the distance. I'm not going to try to improve my diet or exercise more frequently, I've resolved to learn a new skill: home brewing.If you've never brewed beer before, allow me to introduce you to the quick-start guide: Mr. Beer Home Brew Kits. Mr. Beer makes a comprehensive home brew kit that literally takes all the guess work out of the brew process. For as little as $40, you'll get all the essential tools, ingredients, and a recipe to brew and bottle 2 gallons of the good stuff. Once you've gotten your feet wet (and your whistle), head back to MrBeer.com for kit refills, new recipes, additional gear, and a healthy community of brewmasters and aficionados who can help you dial in your next batch.
Brewing beer is a relatively easy process and a barrel of fun, literally. With the right tools and a good recipe, you need only time, patience, and a bit of good hygiene to produce your own artisan craft brews. If you love beer, do yourself a favor a plunk down a couple twenties. Brewing is a great way to to learn about and deepen your appreciation for your current favorites. If you time it right, you'll have your craft down just in time to debut your masterpiece at your first summer barbecue. Mr. Beer's kits range from $40-$150, at $59.95 the Premium gold is a great entry package, with enough equipment to get you started, and mix for your first 2 batches.
