Birth of a Stout, during lock down!!

IMG-0220.jpg

Today I am doing a bit of a different BeerSaturday post, as I am not actually drinking a BEER, I am still planning to brew a BEER!!

The photos of the STOUT, is of a STOUT, I brewed some time ago and already wrote a post about!!

As you might know the sale of alcohol is prohibited in South Africa, under the Covid-19 lock-down restrictions.

Although I do have some BEERS left from my previous brew, I became inspired to start another brew, while reading a post of @zekepickleman.

My local brew supply shops are all closed, but I found a shop in Johannesburg that does online sales of beer brewing equipment and ingredients!!

I immediately put in an order for ingredients to do a brew!! The stock is also limited, and due to high orders and only skeleton staff working, they say delivery will take 7 days!! They also restrict the amount of stuff one can order. I just made up this recipe while browsing, thus I don't have an idea how it will turn out, but thus far most off my own BEERS came out great!!

Below is the confirmation e-mail I received for my order.

Now I am just waiting for the delivery!!

(The bottle opener on the photo is my brother's, he brought it from Australia - poor Kangaroo!!)

Why don't you join #BeerSaturday as hosted by @detlev yourself, click here for all the information on this great contest!!

It is really very easy and satisfying!! I love to just brew and see how friends like the !BEER
You can google and one really don't need expensive stuff, I use the very basics and try to keep things simple.
Cheers!!

For some reason I always think it’s an investment. My Neighbor has a set up, but it looks like his tens of thousands of dollars so maybe my reference point is bad.

Your precious post on home brewed beer looks awesome. I'm sure the next one will be no exception.
I still have half a glass of wine left 😀

What's the rational behind the ban of sales of alcohol during the covid 19 period? Ghana isn't like that

It's got to do with people misbehaving and not following social distancing rules when drinking to much!!
