So I got one of these for Christmas and I am excited to brew my first batch of beer, has anyone else ever used one of these before? How did it go? How was the beer?

Looks like a Mr. Beer kit, which is what I got one year. Honestly the beer turns out pretty mediocre. Not totally undrinkable, but if you're looking to make quality homebrew, it requires a bit of investing.

They're basically the "painting by numbers" equivalent of homebrewing.

Ausfag?
I got a similar kit several years back, it's good for a few starter brews but then you realize you need bigger and higher quality equipment.
Sterilization and temperature is the key, I'm in Brisbane and I can't put a brew down atm due to the heat.

If you are an alcoholic like me i would recommend getting bigger bottles just for lazyness sake, double or triple size bottles save so much time and effort.

Liquor is pretty crazy expensive in here in canadia so if you have the space this is a great way to save money.

pretty sure it's just sugar for the yeast.

You can put your fermentor in a temperature controlled fridge and keep brewing year round.
