Home Brew and Watkins

What could be better than combining two of my favorite things especially at Christmas time.  Here it is December with Christmas approaching fast.  I decided that I am going to take my new home brew kit and make a Christmas beer.  Now in this brew there is such things as Ginger, Cinnamon, Cloves and Almond extract all of witch I get from Watkins.  You mix it all up with some canned cherries and malt extract and water and then put in fermenting keg add yeast and wait for the yeast to do their thing.  After they are done eating the sugar and pooping out alcohol you bottle it let it age and then drink.  What more could you ask for?

You can get the full recipe here and for the spices go here.  If you are interested in getting them wholesale or becoming a Watkins Associate click here.

Have a great Christmas all and we will talk later.
