I need beer friends.

I need beer friends. I actually like brewing beer way more than drinking it, so I like to give most of it away. But I need my bottles back, and I don’t know that many people that drink beer AND return bottles.
Com’on people, mediocre home brew for the low price of telling me how it tastes and returning the bottles. -

@NullNowhere I'll drink your beer!
@fujiwara@sakurajima.moe that would be great, but I’ve intuited that you’re pretty far from me :akko_weary:
I’d even take requests, I just want more practice and an audience to motivate me. …And maybe someone to occasionally fall on a grenade when its a poor run. They can’t all be winners. -

I really should try mead at some point. Which seems pretty easy to make.

@yon@sakurajima.moe Mead is something I occasionally make. It’s the easiest alcohol there is. Heat water and honey, put it In a sanitized fermenter, rack it as needed and when you’re satisfied you’re done.

@yon@sakurajima.moe well, and add yeast. That goes without saying.

@NullNowhere Yet I, as an actual viking (or direct descendant and born and raised) has never had it. Which is kinda odd
There’s this mead guy on YouTube (shorts) making all sorts of crazy ones. Ever seen that guy? Some even sound good, BUT I have this intent dislike for wine (only ones I can tolerate a bit are expensive red ones, the rest taste like fermented garbage, including real actual champagne etc). So I don’t know what I’d think

@yon@sakurajima.moe as a fun note, the Vikings drank as much beer as anything else.
On wine, I’ll tolerate some dry whites but that’s about it. I enjoy mead a lot more but it needs its time. I am not aware of anyone doing mead on YouTube.
Something else I’d want to make is a Braggot - a brew is a cross of mead and beer -

Brännvin later on has some interesting history as well.Is that like a mead with hops, or more complicated?

@yon@sakurajima.moe it’s perhaps better to think of it as a beer with a strong honey component (30-40% honey). It uses grains, hops, honey, and often herbs.
Thanks for mentioning Brännvin since I haven’t heard of it. There tends to be a whole world of hyper-local liquors out there that don’t make it to export. I want to make it and a bunch of others someday.
