Pale Ale @ $0.25/Bottle:

My current beer brewing is a cheap kit I decided to buy for the heck of it.  The kit consists of one can of Bru-Mix Pale Ale hopped malt extract syrup kit, one can of high-glucose malt extract (which I suspect is just High Fructose Corn Syrup) along with the yeast that came with the Bru-Mix kit.


Just boiled approximately 4 litres water and added the contents of the two cans (not yeast yet) and brought back to a boil for 25 minutes.  Poured the hot wort into a pre-filled glass carboy with 3 gallons of cold water.

Topped to the 6 gallon mark and let it cool down a little bit before pitching the yeast in.  O.G. Reading was 1.032.  Pretty low, but am hoping it will turn out to be a good refreshing cheap ale to drink during the summer.

Cost of both cans, $11, water $2.50 and tomorrow I will sample the beer, if it is pretty sweet, I will toss in some hops for dry hopping, add another $2.50 to the list.
