Default Who brews?

As the title says, who on here brews their own beer/wine? And how often do you make a batch?

Lets get some more traffic in here.

Getting ready to start my third batch this weekend. It's been awhile since my last batch, lookin' forward to starting another.

It may be next year, but I will eventually start. I want to use my own hops though, so it depends on if they produce this year or next.

I guess I can say I do, too... Took my first stab at it with a friend this weekend... It's a dark amber.. I think it's gonna be a little bit strong. I'd like to try it on my own some time, but it looks like it takes a lot of equipment.

I've only brewed 2 batches. One was with the Mr. Beer thing and just a can of malt. The other was with a carboy and it was with malt, hops, grain, etc. The second one was the best.

I wanna do another batch sometime in the near future though.
