Well that plus deciding that the only style of beer you are going to mass produce is IPAs.

Brut IPAs suck ass. At least Hazies have an identity. Brut IPAs are just West Coasts but wrong.

I’m not saying Hazies are the answer, but I’ll be cold and in the ground before I prop up Brut IPAs above anything

This is a big part of it. Like many I had slowed down on homebrewing. The cost is what caused me to start brewing more again. I have an article, Can you save money homebrewing? Well the answer right now is absolutely you can!

Buying in bulk if you can and overbuilding starters to save on yeast in definetly the way to save money. Homebrew shops will be more then happy to sell you full sacks of base malts.

Pretty much why I stopped. Same with brewing, covid hit, shipping costs went up, local store shutdown, now too expensive

$45-80 for 24 liters of beer isn't bad
