Why you should homebrew your own beer, mead, or cider

Send us Fan MailWhy homebrew with all the great beer that's already available?With all the great beer available at every corner today it's easy to say there's no reason to homebrew.  When we started brewing there was good beer available, but not like it is today.  Big stouts, funky saisons, and NEIPAs weren't that easy to come by.  Brewing it ourself was a way to get beers we couldn't get otherwise.  Plus, homebrewing is fun.  Creative.  Scientific. Social.  There are plenty of reasons to homebrew other than simply making beer.Bill Boyer joins us again (as promised) along with Friend of the Show Michael Syrop to talk about why to brew, how to get started, entering competitions, and a few resources to help on your journey.  We cover beer, mead, and cider in this episode, but mostly just general homebrewing banter.The hobby can be simple and cheap to start or you can pour $1,000s into an all electric home setup that rivals pro breweries. If you're thinking about starting, do it.  Let us know if you have any questions.  Cheers!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Listen and Subscribe | https://omny.fm/shows/beer-guys-radio Part of the Podcast Park network | https://www.thepodcastpark.com If you enjoy the show we'd appreciate your support!  | https://www.patreon.com/beerguys Follow Us!- Website | https://beerguysradio.com - Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/beerguysradio - Twitter | https://twitter.com/BeerGuysRadio- Facebook | https://www.facebook.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.Thanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!  Your hosts are Tim Dennis and Brian Hewitt with producer Nate "Mo' Mic Nate" Ellingson and occasional appearances from Becky Smalls.Subscribe to Beer Guys Radio on your favorite app: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher  | RSSFollow Beer Guys Radio: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube If you enjoy the show we'd appreciate your support on Patreon.  Patrons get cool perks like early, commercial-free episodes, swag, access to our exclusive Discord server, and more!
