Love the little creatures, hard to go past 2 pints for 10 at the bottleo, however I have been known to wet my whistle on a red can or 2 :P
I also brew my own beers and ciders, I just have a coopers kit, however I don't use coopers syrups and sugars at all, and I use some (80 odd) EE king browns my dad started collecting in the late 80s. Glass bottles for the win, plastic bottles can breathe.
I have made a wheat beer before and was quite satisfied, was no Weihenstephaner however. Its all in the malt, sugars, yeast and finishing hops you use. I source my stuff from Malthouse in Welshpool, bloke gives good advice for newbies.
I think my next step will be to move to a full keg setup, :dreams:
