Nope. no one here has ever tried it. I'll stop being a dick now.
I tried it. I'd rather buy good beer than take up room in my fridge with beer that might turn out OK and costs as much. I have a beer kit I'll sell you.

I got a kit during a white elephant game this Christmas. So I will try brewing my own just for the experience. But like you said, it is probably better to just buy beer at the store

Just bottled my first batch today. Got 90% of my info from the posters on this board. It has been an awesome experience so far and the beer smells fricking great

Damn. Sorry to hear that it didn't turn out so well for you. It's a hobby and it for sure takes up some time but I really love it. I enjoyed the beer that we brewed and haven't ever really been too disappointed with one to make me feel like I was wasting my time.

Brewing was like a bad relationship. I wanted it to work, but I just couldn't get the results I wanted. Damn, now I'm thinking about things other than brewing...

I'm hoping to as well. Keeping my eye on the weather. I'm not above brewing at midnight if the weather is good. Damn rain. Planning a french farmhouse.
