About

My name is David Bell. For my 29th birthday I asked for money to purchase equipment to try brewing my own beer. The idea appealed having recently sampled a number of successful home brews a friend had produced. (Check out Phil's blog for details of his beers.) His beers have also started to get me into drinking real ales, rather than supping the mass produced cheap lagers I had grow up old with, so the idea of producing my own real ales was now even more attractive.

I have since done a bit of DIY in the cupboard under the stairs, turning it from a dark, cold, concrete floored mess, into something more useful and attractive:



So the DIY was a success. Check out the blog to find out how I get on with the beer...
