Hi all
I fancy having a go at making my own lager My plan is to start with the kits you can buy from Wilko's/The Range.
As I'm not far from the English border, it's cheaper for me to pop across and get my alcohol from England (Wales and Scotland have minimum alcohol pricing in place)! I bulk buy and save quite a lot of money by popping across the border.
I think, eventually, England may bring in the minimum pricing too, so thought it would be a good idea to have a go at making my own and perfecting it over time, as well as it being a bit of a hobby.
Has anyone tried these kits or made their own lager, etc?
Any tips?
I love Lidl's Galereux lager, which is 4.8% and I love their Perlenbacher Pilsner in bottles, which is also 4.8%. I am currently washing and keeping the bottles to re use and save money.
Favourite mainstream lagers are Budweiser and Peroni - just to give you an idea of my taste, if you have any recommendations
