Re: How do you make beer
you go to a certain kind of store that sells wine a beer making kits and you buy a kit that has everything you need plus instructions for about $75-$85(yes, before you ask ive done this before) then you can get two boxes of bottles and caps for about $30 for some reason they come separate. i'm not really sure why they dont just add them and make the kit more expensive, maybe some places they do.
but anyway all you need to do is find a reasonably nearby store that sells wine making supplies. wine making is a fairly popular hobbie and they will most likely(maybe 90% of the time) have beer making supplies as well.
the problem is that making beer smells not so good. that yeasty smell you get when you drive past a brewery(i dont know i you've ever smelled it, i live in milwaukee and drive past the breweries almost daily) is still very apparent even with a small beer making kit. you need to find an out of the way place that you wont mind smelling like a brewery before you do anything.

Re: How do you make beer
stop being a cheap ass. beer isnt that expensive. and if your underage you can steal it from your family member (mom, dad, gramma, grandpa). whats the point in making it? it actually cost more in the long run, seeing as you have to buy the kit first, and then you gotta buy the bottles.

Re: How do you make beer
actually its not more expensive than buying beer in the long run. the bottles can be reused(if sterolized with boiling water of course) and so can the twist off caps if you buy those kind(different price i think) and whose to say you need to use the bottles... and if you truely are a "cheap ass", which in this case i really hope your not, you can often aquire free bottles from alleys as often times people leave boxes of used bottles from homemade beer lying near their trash pick up. of course for this you have to be really cheap and have to make sure to sterolize them well. and making beer isnt for being cheap its considered a hobby actually.

Re: How do you make beer
Brewing your own beer will save you shitty ass loads of money. Most of which is excise taxes.
