Oh now I want one as well! Many moons ago, I brewed some amber ales myself. They can be nice and refreshing in contrast to the heavy IPAs. Reinheitsgebot is a funny thing. In my country, South Africa, some people still uphold it, but many people love experimenting so we have various new types of beers popping. Enjoy it! (Especially for that price.)

How difficult is it to brew your own amber ale? I mean if it's easy enough, I would do it. Also, it's weird with the Reinheitsgebot like it's strange but I guess it's what people still believe it to be 😂. I mean, as time progress, there are different types of beer and that makes it interesting. It's just like how coffee creations over time as well.
Sorry for the week delay. What a hellish week.
Brewing beer is very simple. If you make it on small scale, it is super easy. You can either do "all grain" or not. All grain you need to extract the sugar from the barley yourself, or you can already buy the extracted syrup (which is a lot easier but does not give you much freedom to experiment). Boil the sugary thing (wort) add hops, let it ferment for 2-4 weeks, bottle it and there you have beer!
That was obviously a very oversimplified process but it is basically that.
