In the lead up to Christmas I started looking into growth markets during 2009, there are not many industries doing well, so I thought I’d hit the high street to find businesses that were benefiting from recession, beer at home namely “Home Brew” is one winner up in takings by more than 300%.
Many questions were asked while visiting one small “home brew” shop in the small town of Kidsgrove, Staffordshire, the answers were so positive I felt it time for me to join in and try it out for myself.
I purchased 1 x food quality brew bin 1 x pressure barrel 1x beer kit starting off with a cheap £7 Young’s kit, well one week in the bin mixed only with sugar and water then transferred to the beer barrel, in just two weeks I could not wait any longer it had to be tried, taking a small wine glass I poured a small measure and looked at this near perfect beer I had made myself well the taste shocked me, as you may guess with the odd visit from friends and family the barrel was empty in just over one week. I have since made some 4 kits ranging from cheap £7 to £19 kits the more expensive kits require no sugar however my findings on the more expensive kits will be printed here in the next week or so.
