How do we know it is pretty darn fine stuff, I think we should be able to test it out to make sure it is.
Funny you should mention “testing” it. The collage aged son occasionally goes to wine tasting parties thrown by his contemporaries.
They all bring along store brought wines, he always brings one of my husbands. Our wines usually get second place, which I’d bet would be first place if those young folks didn’t know it was home made.
The thing with beer making is you have to WAIT for the beer to age in the bottle or keg.
If it tastes bitter and think you have a bad batch, let it age for another week or more and I guarantee you it gets better with age.
Use brown bottles, not clear or even green...if you have to use other than brown, keep it in the dark or it will skunk on you.
I tried wine a couple of times, worked out well, but I prefer beer. I love the smell of grain that permeates through the house...LOL!!!
