From left to right. Blueberry brandy with home made blueberry syrup for color and flavor, 48% ABV. Blueberry brandy, no additives, 54% abv. Flamin hot Cheeto liquor with 15 dehydrated Carolina reapers added to it for a few hours (it’s so spicy it makes my stomach hurt) 48% abv. Cheeto liquor 48% abv. All my fermenters are empty now. Let’s see what else we can do. Think I’m gonna do a beer and another meme spirit, but sadly I can’t find bulk sour warheads in a single flavor online so I’ve gotta spin my wheel of random shit to brew

    I did some pure Mountain Brew™ few weeks ago. It only fermented for a week and it was around 8% ABV. 10/10, would recommend.
    I plan to make a mead with it next batch. Any tips or other suggestions?
    I’m kind of new to brewing alcohol.

      Oooh, glad to hear it worked out for you! And hmm, mead may be the one thing I haven’t brewed yet, but biggest things are always sanitize and write stuff down. Best investment you can make equipment wise in my opinion is something to control fermentation temperatures; hot side is easy, cooling stuff down is a bit more expensive, typically a spare fridge. It’s definitely worth it though, it made my beers go from “oh these are good” to consistently some of the best beers I’ve ever had.
